nBLMs : differents tests before CDR planned in december BEAM INSTRUMENTATION nBLMs : differents tests before CDR planned in december Beam tests at different irradiation facilities in 2018 IPHI CEA/Saclay 3 MeV p on Be target and Al endcap AMANDE, IRSN,Cadarache Monoenergetic n or γ+n yields MC40, Birmingham, UK 28 MeV p on Al target Linearity with beam current 28 MeV proton beam on an aluminum target Time Response Fast module: Immediate response, count rate has a direct correlation with beam current intensity. Slow module : most of events recorded within 100-200μs, but higher efficiency. Still ~5% of events will be register within 5μs Gamma to neutron suppression γ sensitivity with resect to neutrons 10-3-10-4, depending on threshold Higher threshold stronger suppression but with efficiency loss Complete suppression possible. Operation point to be chosen according to actual conditions ACCSYS Collaboration Board Triestre, October 2018
ORPHEE nuclear reactor nBLMs efficiency measurements Detector Efficiency ORPHEE nuclear reactor LLB, CEA Saclay 0.01 eV neutrons, flux 2×106 s-1 cm-2 Analysis ongoing Stable operation with high current (up to 600 nA), no discharges Verified that 5 mm Borflex absorbs completely the thermal neutrons study the detector operation parameters (B4C thickness, drift gap, operating voltages) to optimize signals (duration, amplitude etc.) Planning CEA Saclay SPR: 110 GBq AmBe, Co, Cs sources CEA Saclay: cryo-module testing CERN Linac4: Installed a detector in the hall (without interfering!) in Aug 2018. Profit from on-going run to test response, backgrounds, BEE (November) in most similar(?) conditions available to the ESS linac Other tests Fast detector Slow detector Dependence with neutron energy Mylar vs Polypropylene Dependence with neutron energy Double efficiency when 1 mm polypropylene is used instead of 100 μm Mylar. However, we choose the Mylar due to the stability of the metallization, sacrificing a factor 2 in count rate. Dependence with polyethylene Dependence with EDEP threshold For the slow detector the area of the moderator is used for the calculation (25×25 cm2) While for the fast the active zone (8×8 cm2) ! Moderator thickness chosen for final detector: 5 cm ACCSYS Collaboration Board Triestre, October 2018
Conclusion CEA Saclay/Irfu projet ESS | DATE
1. RFQ : machining of cavities seems to be under control Conclusion 1. RFQ : machining of cavities seems to be under control 2. Elliptical Cryomodules : production phase is launched and assembly will start in january with industrial team. 3. Beam Instrumentation / Diagnostics : several mesures are going on to demonstrate performances before CDR milestones.
