NPL accelerator facility Saturday, 10 November 2018 NPL accelerator facility Steven Judge National Physical Laboratory

NPL 3.5 MV Van de Graaff accelerator Graphite pile provides thermal neutron field for instrument characterisation, particularly reactor instruments Low scatter facility enables provision of mono-energetic neutron fields for instrument characterisation

Current technical specification Saturday, 10 November 2018 Current technical specification 3.5 MV Van de Graaff generator Protons and deuterons, low energy limit = 1 MeV Beam current 1-80 μA Monoenergetic neutron fields from 8 keV to 16.5 MeV Thermal pile: 3x107 neutrons s-1cm-2 in the centre, stability better than 0.25%. Used for instrument calibration and for radionuclide production eg 56Mn Low scatter hall

Additional requirements for new facility Saturday, 10 November 2018 Additional requirements for new facility Lower energy beams – down to 150 keV to produce 14 MeV neutrons for fusion related research Higher energy beams – to produce monoenergetic neutrons in the range 2.5 MeV to 5 MeV Nanosecond pulse mode Higher beam current – up to 200 μA desirable Improved availability – 24 hour operation

Saturday, 10 November 2018 Next steps NPL’s initial proposal is to replace the Van de Graaff generator with a broadly equivalent accelerator. Involvement of academic and industrial partners in establishing and running a new facility is essential. How we go about this – to be decided…
