MO401 | The SPIRAL 2 Project: Construction Progress and Recent Developments on the SC Linac Driver | 35 |
| | |
| The construction of the new Spiral 2 facility has started
in Caen (France) at the National Heavy Ions Accelerator
Center (GANIL). The SPIRAL 2 project is based on a
multi-beam Superconducting Linac Driver delivering 5
mA deuterons up to 40 MeV and 1 mA heavy ions up to
14.5 MeV/u. Different Radioactive Isotope Beams (RIB)
production methods are foreseen: 1) by fission process
(up to 1014fissions/s, induced in an UCx target by fast
neutrons from a C converter bombarded by deuterons), 2)
by fusion-evaporation residues or transfer products, using
p, D, 3,4He and heavy ions beams in different targets. The
high intensity beams delivered by the Superconducting
LINAC Driver, will also open new perspectives for superheavy
and very-heavy nuclei synthesis and spectroscopy.
In addition to fundamental research in nuclear physics,
the SPIRAL 2 facility will be also a high performance
multidisciplinary tool for many other areas of science and
technology: nuclear energy, material sciences, atomic
physics and biology. | |

| Spiral2 is a French facility which aims at the
construction of superconducting linac to deliver proton,
deuteron (5 mA, 40 MeV) and Q/A=1/3 (1 mA, 14.5
MeV/u) beams. In this framework, IPN is in charge of the
high beta part (beta=0.12). Dedicated Quarter Wave
Resonators working at 88MHz require accelerating field
of 6.5 MV/m. First prototype has been built and we
present here the status of the work performed on it
including Q-disease effect, microphonics and cold tuning
system. | |
