SESSION 4
This talk aims to summarize the experience with the SPS and LEP over the past 15
years dealing with leaks in radioactive components and environments. The annual
doses and sources of radiation will be presented together with dose estimations
during a typical mechanical intervention during the run. The corrosion of the
stainless steel materials by the hydrochloric acid is the main cause...

SESSION 4
The GANIL is a heavy ions accelerator in operation from 1983, and composed of a set
of 5 cyclotrons. Since 2001, the SPIRAL facility allows to produce radioactive ion
beams (energy range 2 to 25 MeV/u) with the primary beams delivered by GANIL. The
vacuum system of the large vessels of the cyclotrons are described as well as the
SPIRAL vacuum systems. The maintenance procedures imposed by...
