| THPVA079 | First Optics Design and Beam Performance Simulation of PRAE: Platform for Research and Applications With Electrons at Orsay | 4637 |
|
||
| The PRAE project aims at creating a multidisciplinary R&D facility in the Orsay campus gathering various scientific communities involved in radiobiology, subatomic physics, instrumentation and particle accelerators around an electron accelerator delivering a high-performance beam with energy up to 70 MeV and later 140 MeV, in order to perform a series of unique measurements and future challenging R&D. In addition PRAE will provide a major education and training asset for students and engineers yielding a regional instrument of advanced technology at the heart of the scientific, technological and academic complex of the Paris-Saclay University. In this paper we report the first optics design and performance evaluations of such a multidisciplinary machine, including a first description of future experiments and the required beam instrumentation. | ||

| THPVA097 | Estimation and Measurements of Radiation Dose Distibution for the Radiation Test Area in J-PARC Main Ring | 4689 |
|
||
| The J-PARC main ring has a beam collimator system in the first straight section for the beam halo rejection. Though it makes a high radiation area in the ring which requires a serious maintenance scheme, a high radiation dose can be applied to the tests of radiation resistible devices. The radiation dose distribution was estimated by using PHITS code, and it was confirmed by dose meas-urements using RadMon, nanoDot OSL dosimeters with continuous monitoring of beam losses. The availability of the radiation test area in the accelerator ring is reported in this paper. | ||

Funding: Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (CSTI), Cross-Ministrial Strategic Innovation Promo-tion Program (SIP), Japan Science and Technoogy Agency (JST) The existing non-destructive inspection method employed for concrete structures uses high energy X-rays to detect internal flaws in concrete structures and iron reinforcing rods. In addition to this conventional method, the authors are developing an innovative inspection system that uses a mobile compact linac-driven neutron source that utilizes neutron backscattering, to measure the moisture content in concrete structures and estimate the corrosion probability distribution of iron reinforcing rods. By combining the knowledge of the moisture distribution in concrete structures with the information of its inner structure, the remaining life of concrete structures can be estimated. Further experiments will be conducted in the laboratory, and the moisture detection experiment in the real bridge is scheduled for 2017. |

| THPVA128 | Preliminary Test Setup of the Metu Defocusing Beam Line, an Irradiation Test Facility in Turkey | 4750 |
|
||
|
Funding: Turkish Ministry of Development METU-Defocusing Beam Line (METU-DBL) Project has been started in August 2015 and aims to construct a beam line at Turkish Atomic Energy Authority Sarayköy Nuclear Education and Research Center Proton Accelerator Facility to perform Single Event Effect (SEE) tests for the first time in Turkey. The METU-DBL is 8m-long and has quadrupole magnets to enlarge the beam size and collimators to reduce the flux. When complete the METU-DBL will provide a beam that is suitable according to ESA ESCC No. 25100 Single Event Effects Test Method and Guidelines standard. The METU-DBL beam size is 15.40cm x 21.55cm and the flux will be variable between 105 p/cm2/s and 1010 p/cm2/s. The METU-DBL will serve space, particle, nuclear and medical physics communities starting from 2018 with performing irradiation tests. A preliminary test setup is being constructed towards first tests in March 2017. The beam size will be 6cm x 8cm and the flux will be 1.4x109 p/cm2/s for preliminary test setup. The METU-DBL project construction status for the preliminary test setup is presented in this poster. |

| THPVA141 | Non-Destructive Measurement of Electron Microbunch Separation | 4798 |
| SUSPSIK122 | use link to see paper's listing under its alternate paper code | |
|
||
| With the development of femtosecond lasers, the generation of micro-bunched beams directly from a photocathode becomes routine; however, the monitoring of the separation is still a challenge. We present the results of proof-of-principle experiments measuring the distance between two bunches via the amplitude modulation analysis of a monochromatic radiation signal. Good agreement with theoretical prediction is shown. | ||

| THPVA147 | KlyLac Conceptual Design for Borehole Logging | 4808 |
|
||
|
Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (award No. DE-SC0015721). Linac-based system for borehole logging exploits KlyLac approach combing klystron and linac sharing the same electron beam, vacuum volume, and RF net-work. The conceptual design tailors delivering 3.5-4 MeV electrons within 3.5 inch borehole at ambient temperatures 150 degrees C to replace 137Cs, >1 Ci source used in borehole logging. The linac part is based on a very robust, high group velocity, cm-wave, standing wave accelerating structure. The design concept features i) self-oscillation analog feedback that automatically provides modal stability; ii) ferrite-free isolation of the klystron; and iii) long accelerating section with large (0.3%) frequency separation between adjacent modes; and iv) low-voltage klystron. |

| THPVA148 | Inexpensive Brazeless RF Accelerator | 4812 |
|
||
|
Funding: DOE SBIR A simple, inexpensive way to manufacture a standard radio frequency (RF) driven particle accelerator is presented. The simplification comes from two innovations: utilization of LCLS gun - type RF design to avoid an expensive brazing process and copper plating of stainless steel that further reduces manufacturing cost. This is realized by a special structure design where accelerating structure cells are made out of copper plated stainless steel with knife edges and structure irises - copper disks acts also as gaskets for vacuum and RF seal. Besides the reduced cost, brazeless assembly allows integration of effective cooling and magnet optics elements into accelerator cells. |
