4 Bridging the gap Extended period before we have post-accelerated RIB We must be able to show we have a plan for the big increase in beamtime we will have (cannot give away beam to Isotopes any more) Doubling in beamtime (at least) What to do with that time? Who will use it? (manpower)
5 Planned maintenance: 3429 MW Unplanned outages: MW Monday 26 January 2015, 17:25 Other constraints?
6 Unplanned Capacity Loss Factor Other constraints?
7 Unplanned Capacity Loss Factor Other constraints? Medupi: original unit 1 (of 6) synchronization date: 2010,2011,2012? 2015? Kusile: original unit 1 (of 6) synchronization date: 2011,2012,2013? 2017?

33 What is the αp-process? Series of (α,p) and (p,γ ) reactions, following the break out from the HCNO cycles at very high temperatures > 0.8 GK. It bypasses the slower rp-process, a series of (p, γ ) and β+ decays that occurs a lower temperatures. At sufficiently high temperatures the αp-process can occur in the atmosphere of a neutron star that is accreted from a binary companion star and can be observes as X-ray bursts (see Light Curves) measured in satellite bases γ - detectors. Explosive X-ray bursts last from a few to 1000 seconds and can have time structures like the double peaks seen in the figure. More precise αp-rate calculations may help to understand such observations. The αp-process ends in the A region, owing to the Coulomb barrier. The rp-process continues to higher masses.
