T2K Long Term Plan (~2018) Scenarios for Multi-MW output beam power are being discussed (unofficially and quietly!) : K. Hara, H. Harada, H. Hotchi, S. Igarashi, M. Ikegami, F. Naito, Y. Sato, M. Yamamoto, K.Tanaka, M. Tomizawa 1. Large aperture MR Enlarging the physical aperture from 81 to > 120 πmm.mrad - a new synchrotron in the MR tunnel 2. Second booster ring for the MR (emittance damping ring) BR with an extraction energy ~ 8 GeV, between the RCS and the MR 3. New proton linac for neutrino beam production Linac with an beam energy > 9 GeV! MR operated only for SX users …

One idea: 8 GeV Booster/Damping Ring

T2K Secondary Beam-line 110m Muon Monitor Target station Beam window Decay Volume Hadron absorber Target station (shielding, hadron absorber) designed & constructed for 3-4 MW beam power

T2K Secondary Beam-line 2nd horn 3rd horn BEAM Iron shield (2.2m) Concrete Blocks Helium Vessel Muon Monitor Target station Beam window Decay Volume Hadron absorber Most components in secondary beamline would need to be upgraded for MW operation: beam window, target, horns - NB activated air & water handling

T2K Secondary Beam-line Baffle 1st horn Target 2nd horn 3rd horn BEAM Iron shield (2.2m) Concrete Blocks Helium Vessel Muon Monitor Target station Beam window Decay Volume Hadron absorber

Target exchange system T2K Target & horn Helium cooled graphite rod Design beam power: 750 kW (heat load in target c.25 kW) Beam power so far: 230 kW 1 st target & horn currently being replaced after 4 years operation, 7e20 p.o.t. π π Helium flow lines 400 m/s p

Secondary beam component limitations for >1MW operation Beam windows (target station and target) –Radiation damage & embrittlement of Ti6Al4V alloy –Stress waves from bunch structure –Is beryllium a better candidate? Target –Radiation damage of graphite Reduction in thermal conductivity, swelling etc –Structural integrity & dimensional stability –Heat transfer –High helium volumetric flow rate (and high pressure or high pressure drops) 1 st Horn OTR, beam monitors Target station emission limitations

Horn Problems/Limitations (T.Sekiguchi) What are real problems for horns in a high power beam? – One tends to consider about these things for a high power beam. Cooling to survive a large heat deposit. Mechanical strength for a high current (~300kA) Fatigue due to a repetitive stress of O(10 8 ). – These issues are actually major consideration, but… – Real problems in a high power beam do happen due to Radio-activation: – A treatment of radioactive waste (tritium and 7 Be, etc). – No more manual maintenance  Remote maintenance needed. Hydrogen production by a water radiolysis. NO x production in case of air environment. – Acidification of water. August 20th, IHEP, Beijing11

Horn issues for >1MW beam (T.Sekiguchi) T2K horn is designed for 750kW beam. Currently hydrogen production and poor stripline cooling limit an acceptable beam power. However, some modifications are made for new horns to resolve these problems. In order to achieve 750kW beam power, replacing with new horns and new power supplies are necessary. New horns will be replaced in FY2013 and new power supplies will be operated from fall – Update – new 3 rd horn successfully installed, 2 nd & 1 st horns to be replaced in January 2014 Possibility for beam power beyond 1MW is considered. An acceptable beam power for horn is estimated to be 1.85MW. August 20th, IHEP, Beijing12

New 3 rd horn being installed last month

Limitations of target technologies Peripherally cooled monolith Flowing or rotating targets Segmented

‘Divide and Rule’ for increased power Dividing material is favoured since: Better heat transfer Lower static thermal stresses Lower dynamic stresses from intense beam pulses Helium cooling is favoured (cf water) since: No ‘water hammer’ or cavitation effects from pulsed beams Lower coolant activation, no radiolysis Negligible pion absorption – coolant can be within beam footprint For graphite, higher temperatures partially anneal radiation damage Low-Z target concepts preferred (static, easier)

Pressurised helium cooled beryllium sphere concept for 2 MW, 120 GeV Heat transfer coefficient Beryllium sphere diameter13 mm Beam sigma2.2 mm Helium mass flow rate17 g/s Inlet helium pressure11.1 bar Outlet helium pressure10 bar Inlet velocity40 m/s Maximum velocity185 m/s Total heat load9.4 kW Maximum beryllium temperature178 C Helium temperature rise,  T (T in -T out ) 106 C

CERN SPL Superbeam study 4 MW beam power at 4.5 GeV 4 targets in 4 horns considered feasible ~50 kW heat load per target Particle bed only viable static target option Concept recycled for ESS SB proposal, candidate for HK

Particle bed advantages Large surface area for heat transfer Coolant can pass close to maximum energy deposition High heat transfer coefficients Low quasi static thermal stress Low dynamic stress (for oscillation period <<beam spill time)... and challenges High pressure drops, particularly for long thin Superbeam target geometry Need to limit gas pressure for beam windows Transverse flow reduces pressure drops – but Difficult to get uniform temperatures and dimensional stability of container

Packed bed cannister in symmetrical transverse flow configuration Model Parameters Proton Beam Energy = 4.5GeV Beam sigma = 4mm Packed Bed radius = 12mm Packed Bed Length = 780mm Packed Bed sphere diameter = 3mm Packed Bed sphere material : Titanium Alloy Coolant = Helium at 10 bar pressure Titanium alloy cannister containing packed bed of titanium alloy spheres Cannister perforated with elipitical holes graded in size along length Particle Bed Target Concept Solution T.Davenne

Packed Bed Model (FLUKA + CFX v13) Streamlines in packed bed Packed bed modelled as a porous domain Permeability and loss coefficients calculated from Ergun equation (dependant on sphere size) Overall heat transfer coefficient accounts for sphere size, material thermal conductivity and forced convection with helium Interfacial surface area depends on sphere size Acts as a natural diffuser - flow spreads through target easily Velocity vectors showing inlet and outlet channels and entry and exit from packed bed 100 m/s

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust... The ultimate destiny for all graphite targets (T2K c p/cm 2 so far) LAMPF fluence 10^22 p/cm2 PSI fluence 10^22 p/cm2 BNL tests (in water): fluence ~10^21 p/cm2

Interaction of proton beams with metals

Collaboration on accelerator target materials as part of Proton Accelerators for Science & Innovation (PASI) initiative. Key objectives: Introduce materials scientists with expertise in radiation damage to accelerator targets community Apply expertise to target and beam window issues Co-ordinate in-beam experiments and post-irradiation examination MoU signed by 5 US/UK institutes – Fermilab, BNL, PNNL, RAL, Oxford Materials Department New Post-doc recruited at Oxford to study beryllium Working groups on graphite, beryllium, tungsten, new collaboration on Ti alloys

Secondary beam component limitations for >1MW operation Beam windows (target station and target) – Radiation damage & embrittlement of Ti6Al4V alloy – Stress waves from bunch structure – Is beryllium a better candidate? Target – Radiation damage of graphite Reduction in thermal conductivity, swelling etc Try beryllium? – Structural integrity & dimensional stability – Heat transfer – High helium volumetric flow rate (and high pressure or high pressure drops) 1 st Horn Target station emission limitations

Beam Programme Topics Collaboration between experts regarding: – Physics performance – Engineering performance – Materials performance Engineering studies Materials – Radiation damage studies – DPA/He/H2 calculations – Cross-referencing with literature data – Devise suitable experiments with irradiation and Post Irradiation Examination (PIE) Prototyping Heating/cooling tests

1. Beam Windows Ti6Al4V and Ti6Al4V1B Ti6Al4V used in T2K beam windows for resilience to pulsed beams MSU/FRIB intend to use Ti alloy for beam dump window, will see very high radiation damage rates – Collaboration between RAL, KEK, Fermilab and MSU via RaDIATE/PASI collaboration to perform: Neutron damage experiments Heavy ion damage experiments at MSU Investigation of relevance to T2K beam parameters, possibility to test sample from used T2K beam windows? Beryllium: Attractive as low-Z, high strength, high thermal conductivity Report nearly complete on radiation damage literature (by Oxford MFFP Group/NNL) Post-doc recruited at Oxford to start Jan 2014 (formerly at PSI with Yong Dai) In-beam experiment scheduled for HiRadMat facility at CERN

2. Study limits of existing target How far can existing T2K design be pushed? – Design developments may push current design towards 1 MW operation – But for how long? Graphite radiation damage issues – Exploit strand of RaDIATE collaboration – e.g. of interest to Fermilab for NOvA target – Thermal-hydraulic/CFD simulations: Higher pressure helium -> higher power operation But: extra stresses in window (from pressure and thermal stresses) and target material (thermal stresses)

3. Target research Study static, packed bed, low-Z targets – Beryllium, AlBeMet alloys, titanium alloys are only realistic long lifetime alternatives to graphite Conceptual design, engineering simulations Physics vs engineering performance (high pion yield, long enough lifetime) Manufacturing prototyping Off-line heating & cooling experiments involving: – Induction heater – Prototype helium cooling plant – Calorimetric measurements On-line pulsed beam experiment at HiRadMat, CERN
