1 Radiation and Activation with SoLID Outline 1 Director s Review suggestions 2 Baffle Materials Activation 3 Radiation on Coil 4 Radiation in the Hall 5 Change of SoLID configurations 6 Conclusions Lorenzo Zana The University of Edinburgh December 3, /19

2 Director s Review: Replies to the Report Areas of further investigation Baffle material optimization More detailed study on radiation on magnet s coil More detailed on impact of radiation in the Hall with focus on areas where electronics will be present Planning on how to change from one SoLID configuration to another: Better understanding of effort involved and potential issues on radiation levels 2/19

3 Baffle: Different Material Activation LEAD COPPER TUNGSTEN 3/19

4 Baffle: Different Material Activation Baffle s material Activation Different material were tested for the first 3 layers of baffle/shielding At this presentation just shown the first baffle, but material dependence is comparable also for the other baffles analyzed Copper shows a longer decaying time for the activated isotopes (after 1month radiation is 1 order of magnitude respect to Lead and Tungsten) If Copper is chosen some shielding enclosure will be needed to be placed for dispose of the baffle. 4/19

5 Director s Review: Replies to the Report Areas of further investigation Baffle material optimization (more detail here)v More detailed study on radiation on magnet s coil More detailed on impact of radiation in the Hall with focus on areas where electronics will be present Planning on how to change from one SoLID configuration to another: Better understanding of effort involved and potential issues on radiation levels 5/19

6 Lifetime on NbTi superconductor carried by SoLID Updated Coil design to CLEO The PVDIS configuration with Deuterium target present the main source for neutron fluxes on the coils 6/19

7 Lifetime on NbTi superconductor carried by SoLID Expected PVDIS neutron fluence Dose for 2000h at 100µA N cm 2 (E > 1MeV ) 7/19

Vasilescu & G. Lindstroem 11/19

12 More detail on Radiation in the Hall Updating design Outside the beamline enclosure (2m) accumulated radiation dose should be below the ( 1MeVNeutron cm 2 ) At this level of accumulated radiation no expected damage is expected to detectors 12/19

13 Director s Review: Replies to the Report Areas of further investigation Baffle material optimization (more detail here) V More detailed study on radiation on magnet s coil (more detail here) V More detailed on impact of radiation in the Hall with focus on areas where electronics will be present (more detail here) V Planning on how to change from one SoLID configuration to another: Better understanding of effort involved and potential issues on radiation levels (shown here) 13/19

14 Change of SoLID configurations Considering just radiation level issues The PVDIS configuration with Deuterium target presents strong activation on the first baffle 14/19
