Martin Freer Materials Irradiation at University of Birmingham

Cyclotron MC40 – p, d, 3He, 4He Control Room Experimental room Cyclotron Dynamitron Existing beam lines Potential locations for a dual beam facility Layout of Birmingham Accelerator Complex The MC40 cyclotron possesses the capability to deliver (with variable energy) of protons and 4 He up to 40 MeV, deuterons of 20 MeV and 3 He up to 53 MeV. These have ranges in iron of 2900 microns, 270 microns, 530 microns and 535 microns, respectively, with intensities of up to 20 microAmps. Present materials irradiation programme: RPV steels Zirconium alloys Si Carbides The programme would involve the irradiation of a range of materials for nuclear applications, but including zirconium alloys, steels, ceramics, ODS steels……. We expect to be able to deliver 0.1 dpa/day.

lithium deuterons neutrons Schematic of the neutron production and sample irradiation Fig 1. Neutron production cross sections as a function of energy, from [1]. Fig 2. Neutron energy distributions at zero degrees. The 4 MeV plot illustrates the distribution that would be generated with the present facility, from [2]. Present Proton beam 1 mA Lithium target – epithermal neutron flux Future Deuteron beam 15 mA Lithium target ~3x10 13 neutrons per second via the Li(d,n) reaction. This flux of ~3x10 13 neutrons would be spread over a region of 5 cm diameter. For the present spectrum and intensity it would be possible to reach dpa’s of 1 mili dpa (10 -3 dpa) for a week long exposure
