7-Operation of Targets and Beam Dumps
Oral
The CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) high-energy internal dump (TIDVG) is used to intercept beam dumps from 102.2 to 450 GeV. The previous device featured an absorbing core composed of different materials (graphite, aluminium, copper and a tungsten alloy) surrounded by a water cooled copper jacket. An inspection in 2013 revealed significant beam induced damage to the aluminium absorbing...

7-Operation of Targets and Beam Dumps
Oral
A major experimental concern of thin targets is their behavior under highly intense heavy ion beams. We propose to report on the experimental set-up under consideration (electron gun and infrared camera) and to discuss on the present results.

7-Operation of Targets and Beam Dumps
Oral
A pulsed muon beam with unprecedented intensity will be generated by a 3-GeV 333-microA proton beam on a muon target made of 20-mm thick isotropic graphite at J-PARC MLF MUSE (Muon Science Establishment). The muon rotating target was newly installed in September of 2014, and it was confirmed that the rotating target could stand up to 500-kW proton beam operation. Subsequently, continuous and...

7-Operation of Targets and Beam Dumps
Oral
At the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), a mercury target system has been in operation as a neutron production target of the spallation neutron source driven by 3-GeV protons. It is loaded on a big target trolley that has a dimension of 12.2 m in length, 2.6 m in width and 4 m in height and moves horizontally on a rail in a hot cell. The volume of the hot cell is as large as...
