Title Deflection of high energy protons by multiple volume reflections in a modified multi-strip silicon deflector Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Nuclear Instruments & Methods in Physics Research B Abbreviated Journal (up) Nucl. Instrum. Methods Phys. Res. B
Volume 338 Issue Pages 108-111
Keywords Accelerator; Beam collimation; Crystal; Channeling; Volume reflection
Abstract The effect of multiple volume reflections in one crystal was observed in each of several bent silicon strips for 400 GeV/c protons. This considerably increased the particle deflections. Some particles were also deflected due to channeling in one of the subsequent strips. As a result, the incident beam was strongly spread because of opposite directions of the deflections. A modified multi-strip deflector produced by periodic grooves on the surface of a thick silicon plate was used for these measurements. This technique provides perfect mutual alignment between crystal strips. Such multi-strip deflector may be effective for collider beam halo collimation and a study is planned at the CERN SPS circulating beam.

Title DONES EVO: Risk mitigation for the IFMIF-DONES facility Type Journal Article
Year 2024 Publication Nuclear Materials and Energy Abbreviated Journal (up) Nucl. Mater. Energy
Volume 38 Issue Pages 101622 - 5pp
Keywords Signal Transmission Improvement; RF Conditioning Optimisation; Beam Extraction Device; Medical Isotopes Production; Lithium Purification; Critical Components Manufacture
Abstract The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility- DEMO Oriented Neutron Source (IFMIF-DONES) is a scientific infrastructure aimed to provide an intense neutron source for the qualification of materials to be used in future fusion power reactors. Its implementation is critical for the construction of the fusion DEMOnstration Power Plant (DEMO). IFMIF-DONES is a unique facility requiring a broad set of technologies. Although most of the necessary technologies have already been validated, there are still some aspects that introduce risks in the evolution of the project. In order to mitigate these risks, a consortium of companies, with the support of research centres and the funding of the CDTI (Centre for the Development of Industrial Technology and Innovation), has launched the DONES EVO Programme, which comprises six lines of research: center dot Improvement of signal transmission and integrity (planning and integration risks) center dot Optimisation of RF conditioning processes (planning and reliability risks) center dot Development of a reliable beam extraction device (reliability risks) center dot Development of technologies for the production of medical isotopes (reliability risks) center dot Improvement of critical parts of the lithium purification system (safety and reliability risks) center dot Validation of the manufacture of critical components with special materials (reliability risk). DONES EVO will focus on developing the appropriate response to the risks identified in the IFMIFDONES project through research and prototyping around the associated technologies.

Title Optimization of the crystal assisted collimation of the SPS beam Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Physics Letters B Abbreviated Journal (up) Phys. Lett. B
Volume 726 Issue 1-3 Pages 182-186
Keywords Accelerator; Beam collimation; Crystal; Channeling
Abstract The possibility for optimization of crystal assisted collimation has been studied at the CERN SPS for stored beams of protons and Pb ions with 270 GeV/c per unit charge. A bent silicon crystal used as a primary collimator deflects halo particles in the channeling regime, directing them into a tungsten absorber. In channeling conditions a strong reduction of off-momentum particle numbers produced in the crystal and absorber, which form collimation leakage, has been observed in the first high dispersion (HD) area downstream. The present study shows that the collimation leakage is minimal for some values of the absorber offset relative to the crystal. The optimal offset value is larger for Pb ions because of their considerably larger ionization losses in the crystal, which cause large increases of particle betatron oscillation amplitudes. The optimal absorber offset allows obtaining maximal efficiency of crystal-assisted collimation.

Title Observation of nuclear dechanneling length reduction for high energy protons in a short bent crystal Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication Physics Letters B Abbreviated Journal (up) Phys. Lett. B
Volume 743 Issue Pages 440-443
Keywords Crystal; Channeling; Beam; Deflection
Abstract Deflection of 400 GeV/c protons by a short bent silicon crystal was studied at the CERN SPS. It was shown that the dechanneling probability increases while the dechanneling length decreases with an increase of incident angles of particles relative to the crystal planes. The observation of the dechanneling length reduction provides evidence of the particle population increase at the top levels of transverse energies in the potential well of the planar channels.

Title Shape coexistence and isospin symmetry in A=70 nuclei: Spectroscopy of the T-z =-1 nucleus Kr-70 Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Physics Letters B Abbreviated Journal (up) Phys. Lett. B
Volume 785 Issue Pages 441-446
Keywords Radioactive beams; Gamma-ray spectroscopy; Mirror symmetry; Shape coexistence
Abstract Excited states in the T-z = -1 nucleus Kr-70 have been populated using inelastic scattering of a radioactive Kr-70 beam as well as one- and two-neutron removal reactions from Kr-71,Kr-72 at intermediate beam energies. The level scheme of Kr-70 was constructed from the observed gamma-ray transitions and coincidences. Tentative spin and parity assignments were made based on comparison with the mirror nucleus Se-70. Asecond 2(+) state and a candidate for the corresponding 4(2)(+) state suggest shape coexistence in Kr-70.
