1 Target Station Design Dan Wilcox High Power Targets Group, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory EuroNu Annual Meeting 2012

2 Contents Purpose of the Target Station Challenges and Objectives Design Overview Component Detail Conclusions

3 – To contain the targets and magnetic horns – To contain support infrastructure for these components (maintenance, cooling, etc.) – For EuroNu, the target station contains the section of beamline shown below; Split Proton Beam Neutrino Beam Direction Collimators Horns and Targets Decay Volume Beam Dump Purpose of the Target Station

4 Challenges and Objectives Technical Challenges – High radioactivity of components – Limited horn and target lifetimes – failure is expected during the lifetime of the facility – Therefore a system is required to replace broken parts remotely – Precise alignment of horns and targets required (±1mm) – 4 horns means increased complexity and increased target station volume Main Objectives – Ensure Safety – Minimise Downtime – Minimise Cost

5 Design Overview Solution based on T2K target station – Proven concept, designed for comparable beam power and activation – Main problem: time taken for repairs Key Features – Components run in helium environment – Gantry crane for remote handling – For access, must pump out helium and remove shielding Beam Windows Helium Vessel Accelerator Vacuum Vessel Lid Horn Support Module Shield Blocks

6 Horn Support Kinematic Mounts Shield Blocks Rest on Vessel Helium Vessel Feedthrough for Services – Kinematic mounts ensure accurate alignment – Must disconnect services inside vessel – Removable shield blocks fit inside module – Labyrinth to prevent radiation shine – Shielding inside vessel protects kinematic mounts, service connections and lid seal Horn Support Module Shield Blocks Vessel Lid Seal

7 Power Supply – Horn power supplies located on top of decay volume shielding – Power fed to horns via striplines – Stripline length must be minimised, without compromising shielding thickness – Need equal stripline length to each horn Beam Direction Horn Power Supplies

8 Shielding – Beamline shielded by concrete, target station also has an iron inner shield – Movable shield blocks allow the horn assembly to be removed – Vessel also has external shielding to reduce dose in main hall and power supplies Beam Direction Horn Power Supplies Concrete ShieldIron Shield External Shield Blocks Vessel Lid

9 Repair and Disposal – Hot cell allows activated components to be repaired or dismantled – Morgue stores broken components in steel casks until activity reduced for disposal – Hot cell operator uses remote manipulators, with cameras and lead glass windows for visibility – Replace targets within horns. Hope to replace individual horns from the support module? – Morgue and hot cell covered by removable concrete shield blocks Hot Cell Operator Hot CellMorgue Removable Shield Blocks

10 Remote Handling Gantry crane covers helium vessel, morgue, hot cell and delivery area Second, smaller crane to move power supply units Pit to reduce radiation shine while moving horns Two assemblies of four horns will be used – one is running while the other is being repaired Control Room Crane Rails Hot Cell Operator Hot Cell Morgue Beam Direction Ground Level Delivery Area

11 Reducing Downtime Factors contributing to T2K’s long shutdown times; – Large helium volume to pump out – Tritium generated in concrete shielding in helium vessel – Repairs impossible while beam is running (hot cell too close to beamline) Proposed Design; – Large helium volume unavoidable – Concrete shielding in the helium vessel will be encased in a steel shell – Main hall layout designed to minimise dose to hot cell operator Steel Blocks Concrete Block Hot Cell Operator BeamlineHot CellMorgue Decreasing Activity Steel Shell

12 Conclusions 4 horns require a large volume of shielding – a significant cost Remote handling requirement can be met by using a gantry crane to move components and shield blocks Well equipped hot cell required for complex repair operations Accurate horn alignment can be achieved using kinematic mounts Downtime can be reduced by having a spare horn assembly Have demonstrated a feasible target station design for a 4MW superbeam, which builds on practical experience from T2K
