MO401The SPIRAL 2 Project: Construction Progress and Recent Developments on the SC Linac Driver35

 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.
