Project Milestones 1999 2001 : Conceptual design at GANIL of a future facility for high intensity rare beams using a sc linac to accelerate medium mass ions at 100 MeV/n: LINAG 2001 2002 : LINAG Phase 1: low energy, high intensity deuteron beam to obtain neutron-induced fission considered as an option for the SPIRAL 2 project, and chosen in alternative to photofission. 2003 2005 : SPIRAL 2 DD : Participation of most of French Labs to the detailed study coordinated by A. Mosnier (Spiral2 collaboration) 2005 2010 : Construction approved in May 2005, Project leader named in July: M. Jacquemet First beam expected in 5 years. SRF 2005 - Ithaca, July 15th 6/17
Linear Accelerator Specifications CW machine Two ion sources, one for deuterons, the other one for ions q/a=1/3 KEPT POSSIBILITIES for future upgrade: To increase the ion energy to 100 MeV/u Beam currents Ions: up to 1 ma (Argon) Deuterons: up to 5 ma To accelerate ion beams of q/a=1/6 (up to 1 ma) in a second step Beam energy: Ions : 14.5 MeV/u Deuterons: 20 MeV/u To add a fast chopper placed in the MEBT, with the ability of selecting from 1/50 to 1/10 5 bunch (bunch isolator) Maximum energy gain for each kind of ion (implies independently phased cavities) Optimisation of the accelerator for q/a=1/3, in order to have the possibility to increase the ion energy in the future SRF 2005 - Ithaca, July 15th 7/17
