[Triumf-seminars] TRIUMF Accelerator Seminar today at 14:00

Wed May 30 05:00:03 PDT 2012

Date/Time: Wed 2012-05-30 at 14:00

Location:  ISAC II Conf. Rm.   

Speaker:   Anders Mjos (TRIUMF)

Title:     ISAC Target Systems Reliability

Abstract: The ISAC online targets produce rare isotopes through interactions with the proton beam from TRIUMF's 500 MeV cyclotron. The produced isotopes are ionized, accelerated and delivered to ISAC experiments. Tough operating conditions - high temperature, high voltage, high vacuum - and limited access require reliable target systems. To produce such target systems a set of engineering tools are employed in the design and manufacturing process. These engineering tools will be presented with emphasis on resource planning, recording reliability data and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). Furthermore, first effects of our groups reliability effort will be discussed.
