Abstract
The proton, deuteron and alpha induced reactions are of a great interest for the assessment of induced radioactivity of accelerator components, targets and beam stoppers as well as isotope production for medicine and also to nuclear astrophysics. We present a new irradiation chamber for activation measurements, that forms a prolongation of long-term experimental activities using stacked-foil activation technique in NPI CAS, Řež. The chamber is based on an airlock system and is coupled to a pneumatic transfer system delivered by KIT Karlsruhe. This system is installed in GANIL/SPIRAL2-NFS and will be used for proton, deuteron and alpha particle activation measurements with long- and short-lived isotopes.
Highlights
A good knowledge of charged particle reaction cross sections is important in number of cases, we name two, here: (a) construction, operation and decommissioning devices like ITER/DONES for IFMIF/DEMO - activation of construction materials, activation of accelerator components
The experimental data are organized into large open access databases (e.g. EXFOR [1]) and are used - together with complex calculations based on theoretical models - to build open access libraries (e.g. TENDL [2])
The aim of this paper is to introduce the complex system for measurements of both short-lived and long-lived isotopes in NFS [9] (Neutrons For Science) laboratory in GANILSPIRAL2
Summary
A good knowledge of charged particle reaction cross sections is important in number of cases, we name two, here:. (b) improvements of the reaction models and understanding the underlying physics, that helps to make predictions in combinations of projectiles, targets and energies, where the data are missing or that are not experimentally accessible. The experimental data are organized into large open access databases (e.g. EXFOR [1]) and are used - together with complex calculations based on theoretical models - to build open access libraries (e.g. TENDL [2]). An important part of the efforts, the underlying model parameters, obtained from interpretations are organized and kept in libraries for building databases and other use (e.g. RIPL [3]). These efforts offer a framework of systematic and consistent approach for other investigations in nuclear reactions. The aim of this paper is to introduce the complex system for measurements of both short-lived and long-lived isotopes in NFS [9] (Neutrons For Science) laboratory in GANILSPIRAL2
