Base line parameters
• Linac 4– Linac 4 will be able to provide 5 x 1013 ppp = 1.25
x 1013/ring• Based on 40mA from the ion source
– Could possibly go beyond this value with a combination of different options
• Increase in source current output• An increase in pulse length• Chopping factor
– All need to be in place for testing

VentilationPurpose of the airlocks:• Create a volume between Tunnel and Class A Laboratory in such a way to:
– Avoid activated air backflows from the Tunnel to the Class A Laboratory;– Prevent the Class A Laboratory evacuation in case of Tunnel ventilation stop (and vice versa);– Enhance a more flexible pressure regulation in the two buildings;
• Increase the leaktightness of the structure• Ventilation separation in progress

Progress on Infrastructure
• Supplementary shielding has already been installed…mainly to reduce radiation levels in neighbouring MEDICIS lab.
• Validation and implementation of extra storage will eliminate the need for unnecessary transport in the long term.
• Ventilation modifications are already in progress and will contribute to a reduction in activated air release as from next year.
• Still awaiting results on spectroscopy of filters from the dry pump tests.
• Beam dumps are a critical item for any increase in intensity and energy and should be upgraded during LS2 – 2018-2019.

respect the ion source• Extraction efficiency measurements• Ionized air conductivity measurements• Acceleration gap pressure measurements

Charge pump modulator3. A new modulator concept
Advantages
• Modulation recovery time adjustable
• Requires a single low current high precision power supply (High power supply not necessary)
• A single HV switch is required (compared to C modulator which uses 3)
1) In this circuit a 400 nF buffer capacitor (C1) and the target capacitance (C2) are charged to 60 kV by a low power, high precision d.c. power supply (HVPS)
2) Immediately prior to beam impact the HVPS is disconnected from the target and the buffer capacitor using a 90 kV rated semiconductor switch (HV_Switch1). During beam impact the target capacitance is rapidly discharged to 54 kV. Then the buffer capacitor begins to re-establish voltage on the target to 99,4% of its initial value.
3) After 1 ms a feedback loop controlling an auxiliary high voltage amplifier is switch on and increases the buffer capacitor potential. This additional voltage brings the target voltage back to the required +/- 0.6 V tolerance within 5 ms.
4) Finally, when the target has recovered to a sufficient high impedance, the feedback loop is opened and the HVPS is re-connected to the target to maintain the stable 60 kV voltage.

Off-Line separator 2
• Built and operated in B.275 earlier this year• Now being moved to B.3• To be used for FE modification tests, beam optics for RFQ Cooler, new
magnet design tests…• Can also be used for target production/prototype testing

Progress on target and FE• Post-irradiation analyses is required of the remaining irradiated
samples• Graphite heat shields need to be tested further but show promising
results already– Step in the right direction uniform heat distribution and for waste
treatment• Further testing required for the two-stage extraction
– However any modifications incur:• Modifications of the FE’s (LS2 during their replacement?)• Amendments to the target production contract• Modifications to OL separators and production protocol
• HT modulator design looks promising. Implementation could be in 2016/2017– Note that new HT power supplies (compatible with the modulator design)
will be delivered in October 2015

RFQ Cooler1. Alignment
– Internal and external alignment possibilities and done externally
2. Pressure monitoring– Possibility to measure gas pressure inside
the electrodes– Modification of conductance
3. Mechanical and electrical design– Investigating mechanical support to
maintain electrodes in place– Improved wiring and insulation to avoid
short-circuits
4. Laser pumping1. Modification of apertures to allow lasers
to interact with ions in the bunched region

MR-TOF for ISOLDE
Can it replace a magnetic separator? • Surely not with state of the art, too small
current: • 1000 ions per cycle (~4ms for
RFWHM=20000) • 3e5 ions per 1.2s, but usually a huge
fraction is contamination!
But the performance could be improved: • Higher energy inside the MR-ToF • Bigger device to reduce density • Investigations are still ongoing to improve
throughput
Ion-beam composition analysis • direct feedback for target/line
optimization • sampling of release curve possible • single ion sensitivity to detect
lowest yields • no upper limit on half-life as with
decay station • not hindered by decay branching
ratio

New Magnet Design
Schematic view in cross section of the new HRS magnet (H-type), and partial view in 3D, featuring the pole face windings technology (picture credit to M. Breitenfeldt)
• H type magnet, mechanically more stable, possibility of better pole face machining • Yoke made of laminated steel reduction of eddy currents, allowing an increase in cycling
speed (~1min VS 15min) • Poleface windings allow the adjustment of the magnetic field along the beam axis.

Beam Quality Summary• The new RFQ Cooler is (almost) built
– To be coupled to the Off-Line 2 for testing and characterization with beam• MR-TOF is a promising tool for both experiments requiring high
resolution and target characterization– Already discussed in the ISCC but WG required to further pursue design
and integration• Could well be an out-of-beam device
• HRS: A long way from being implemented– New magnet design looks very promising– Would like to see a 90 deg “compact version” built and tested on Off-line
2 as a pre-requisite to any further decisions• REXEBIS developments should be strongly encouraged
– For HIE-ISOLDE and for possibly the TSR.

ISOLDE Beam DumpsOption 2
• Replace existing beam dumps• Advantages
– Low dose rate for installation– Take advantage to improve shielding (see next slides)– Reduction in air activation through new design
• Disadvantages– Removal, storage and replacement of ~3500m3 of earth,
about half of which is activated.– Handling and storage of radioactive beam dump– Still require cooling and its associated disadvantages
![Page 36: CATHI and the HIE-ISOLDE Design Study Richard Catherall ISOLDE Technical Coordinator ISOLDE Users Workshop 15 th – 17 th December 2014.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e725503460f94b71755/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
ISOLDE Beam Dumps Option 1
• Insert a PSB like water-cooled beam dump in front of existing beam dumps.– Advantages:
• Cheaper option• Based on known design• “easier” access
– Disadvantages• Implementation and maintenance of a cooling system
– Activated water
• Contribution to target area air activation and consequent release to atmosphere.
• High dose rate for installation

Shielding
• Further shielding required to attenuate dose rates observed during operation and under certain conditions:– 2uA of p-beam on thick ISOLDE targets (>50gcm-2)– Identified by RP in https://edms.cern.ch/document/1142606/1
CERN-DGS-2010-006-RP-SN– Impact of p-beam intensity and energy increase on radiation
dose rates outside the CERN perimeter to be assessed• Can be combined with an upgrade of the ISOLDE beam

REX-EBIS: Electron Beam Ion Source for HIE-ISOLDE
Design values for EBIS (HIE-ISOLDE/TSR@ISOLDE application ) / available now with REXEBIS
Electron energy [kV] 150 / 5
Electron current [A] 2-5 / 0.2
Electron current density [A/cm2] 1-2x104 / 100
New EBIS – High Energy Compression and Current (HEC2) EBIS
Main challenge – produce the high compression electron beam
Goal – have a reliable design of the HEC2 electron gun on earliest possible stage
Priorities and the goal setting
Realization – in a joint effort with BNL, based on BNL design and infrastructure (BNL Test-EBIS), funded and manned by CERN
