Needs and benefits of 2 GeV high intensity protons for ISOLDE
- Simone Gilardoni (CERN)
The contribution will detail the challenges and perspectives for the upgrade of the ISOLDE GPS and HRS beam dumps. Ideas and feasibility on the design of the new devices as well as the works required for the exchange of the assemblies will be given, together with a roadmap towards the implementation of the required activities during LS3.
The LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU) will increase the reliability and the performance of the LHC beams required for reaching the goals of HL-LHC. For ISOLDE, the higher beam intensity with the new Linac4 as injector and the increase of the PS Booster energy open new perspectives in terms of beam usage. In particular, an upgrade of the target area and the construction of new target stations could be...
The MEDICIS project was launched in 2013 with the construction of dedicated laboratories in the class A work sector of ISOLDE, with an irradiation station located in the HRS beam dump combined with a Rail Conveyor System, with an irradiated target storage area and with an isotope mass separator [1]. The facility was commissioned in 2017 and started operation in 2018. Last year allowed the new...
