Description
HiRadMat proved in the last few years to be an essential part of the design, testing and validation of CERN’s beam intercepting devices applications, managed by the CERN’s EN-STI Group. This includes studies on high power (density) targetry, testing and validation of collimators materials, integral testing of new equipment, validation of absorbers materials and studies on material R&D for future applications.
The contribution will highlight the main findings from the different tests executed in the HiRadMat phase 1 between 2012 and 2018, including online measurements, comparison with simulations and modelling and post irradiation examination on critical parts.
The potential future use of the facility until LS3 for approved and proposed projects and will be discussed as well.
