SAFERIB – INFN/LNL Design of remote control and handling of the target assembly.

Definition of the technical concept for the control and handling system. Identification of radiation-durable mechanical and electronic components. Mechanical design of the plug for the target system. SPES concept for target removal

extension to EURISOL Data base of radiation-durable components (electronic) Preliminary design of handling area Calculation of materials activation

SAFERIB – INFN/LNL Radioactive Ion Beam facilities have different characteristics and requisites than Neutron Spallation Sources facilities Present RIB facilities runs with few ten’s of kW (TRIUMF 50 kW) Future RIB facilities (SPIRAL-2, MAFF, SPES, EURISOL,…) will range 20 kW

4 MW

1013 - 1015 Fission/s

Contamination is a very serious problem. Removal of targets has to be done in a sealed environment (remotly handled) Preliminary consideration: a remote handling system close to the SNS solution (2 MW) which integrate the RIB production target and ion source.
