[TRIUMF Seminars]

Location:  ISAC II Conf Rm     

Speaker:   Robert von Hahn (Max-Planck-Institut fuer Kernphysik)

Title:     The Accelerator Facility at MPIK - past and future

Abstract: After an overview of the existing accelerator facility, which was decommissioned end of 2012, the talk will focus on the future project of the accelerator division: the realization of the electrostatic cryogenic storage ring CSR. With temperatures of 2 to 10 K at the vacuum chambers of the CSR for example experiments at rovibrationally cold molecules at extreme ultra high vacuum will be performed. The cryogenic principles and vacuum concepts were tested at the 4 m long cryogenic test facility (CTF) realized for this purpose. A vacuum pressure of 8×10-14 mbar (equivalent gas density at room temperature) was verified allowing us to proceed within the proposed design principles for the CSR, which is now approaching completion.




Stimulants available 15 minutes before the talk.
