SUMMARY NOTES
SHIELDING AND MAGNET MODEL (Josh)
- Cu Core - was split into two pieces following advice from previous meeting
- No need to cut symmetrically, one side could be flat
- Ask Target Group about machining options
- Cooling of the Cu Core
- Action Item: Repeat cooling calculation using Josh's model (Gabriel)
- all cooling in W-Cu area: make flat, rectangular cooling channel outside (on top of) the Cu core (could bolt on or other method) on each side and check
- investigate optimal cooling by changing fractions of Cu and W-Cu areas used for cooling channels
- investigation includes both distance and water temperature (<100 degrees to prevent boiling)
- How to feed water through shield to the core
- radiation level lowest at rear (upstream) end - could bring in cooling from there
- services could be nested, slotted, and come in from the side
- Weight of the bottom shielding structure
- helpful to keep it modular to crane it in
- Discussion of questions about magnet:
- Magnet lifting points: typically designed in for magnet
- Magnet itself should sit on feet so can do alignment - typically fiducialize offline with a few points
- poles can be attach to magnet by two lifting points
- hex, 5/8"-1" as minimum diameter (but magnet only 2 tons total, so maybe 1/2" bolts (x3) might be enough?)
- Action item: Josh: send step file to Steve Lassiter
HALL D DESIGN (Sean)
- Beamline simulations completed - beam focused on KLong production target, no benefit for raster upstream as opposed to making beam larger, can increase size to a few cm
- CPS radiation simulation was sent to Igor - converting to MNCP6 code geometry
- Action Item: Gabriel send simulation to Sean for cross checking in Geant4 directly
TUNGSTEN
- Information gathering - investigating different options: purchase 17.5 g/cm3 solid (more expensive) or pressing powder
- For Be target area to be covered by W is relatively small
- Lead brick tolerance: ~1/16" typically
- Can use lead sheets as shims assuming all identical blocks (dimension and uniformity)
NEXT MEETING: FRIDAY JUNE 26 at 11:00AM (ET)
