Abstract
SINQ Target-11 was in operation in 2015 and 2016. It was shut down due to an incident in June 2016, during which the pressure drop in the cooling water loop increased significantly, and meanwhile, the activity of the cooling water also increased tremendously. The evidence indicated a serious failure of the target. As this is the first severe failure since SINQ came into operation in 1997, some post-irradiation examinations (PIE) were performed to analyze the failure mechanisms.
