RaDIATE News NSUF Experiment Proposal Experiment to irradiate Be at Michigan Ion Beam Laboratory to simulate NuMI beam window conditions PI’s: D. Senor (PNNL), G. Was (Mich), S. Roberts (Oxford), V. Kuksenko (Oxford), P. Hurh (FNAL) Pre-proposal submitted October 2 Utilizes NE funding for facility access only (irradiation and PIE) 3 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting
RaDIATE News HiRadMat Be experiment (“BeGrid”) status Scientific and Technical (safety) Board Reviews next week at CERN Design by Andrew Atherton at RAL has progressed well Talk by Kavin Ammigan at NBI has good description Current hurdles: Strain gauge DAQ system Be sample manufacture (witness samples late by 4 weeks) In-situ, on-rig beam position monitoring (foils and camera?) 4 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting
RaDIATE News NBI Workshop held at Fermilab in September Neutrino Beams and Instrumentation Several good talks on neutrino targets Talks available online: Upcoming Workshops: IWSMT Workshop (Oct 2014) – Spallation Materials MatX Workshop (Nov 2014) – Materials in Extreme HB Workshop (Nov 2014) – High Brightness Beams /09/14P.

RaDIATE News ESS Milestone Reached Construction started in September Foundation Stone Ceremony Today! 6 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting
MOU Status Revision text finalized Slight edit results in draft 6 Still need GSI signatory information (M. Tomut?) US DOE Labs should be submitting to site offices and then to DOE HQ for approval to sign (largest hurdle) Then MOU signing “tour” 12 original hard copies required? CERN will hopefully be added in following addendum next year 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting 7
Status Reports Beryllium update (V. Kuksenko) Graphite update (N. Simos & K. Ammigan) Tungsten update (C. Densham) FRIB materials studies (F. Pellemoine) 8 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting
Technical Meeting Topics What should be the next 2 tech meeting topics? November: EDXRD studies at BNL – N. Simos? In-situ He irradiation of Be at MIAMI – V. Kuksenko? December: Differences in High Energy Proton irradiations and Low Energy (fission reactor) irradiations and Fast Ion irradiations (speaker?) The effects of He gas production in metals (graphite?) (speaker?) Other ideas? 10/09/14P. Hurh RaDIATE Oct 2014 Admin Meeting 9
