7-Operation of Targets and Beam Dumps
Invited Talk
CERN is one of the world-leading laboratories for particle physics and was founded more than 60 years ago. The 600 MeV Synchrocyclotron (SC), built in 1957, was CERN’s first accelerator that provided beams for CERN’s first experiments in particle and nuclear physics. Since then several more powerful, more intense and also much larger accelerators have been built like the Large Hadron collider...

A low-coherence interferometer-based fiber-optic sensor has been developed to measure the dynamic strains in the SNS mercury target. Measurement bandwidth and radiation tolerance are an order of magnitude higher than commercial products. Measurement performance in the recent SNS target is described.
