Chancé and J. Payet / CEA/DSM/DAPNIA Preliminary study of the collimation and absorbers in the Decay Ring – E. Wildner, A. Fabich, M. Stockner / CERN Assymetric bunch merging in the Decay Ring – S. Hancock, M. Benedikt / CERN PS activation and collimation studies M. Kirk, P. Spiller, J. Stadlmann, C. Omet / GSI Darmstadt Decay losses along the accelerator chain of the beta beam A. Fabich, M. Benedikt / CERN

  6. FP6 – Production • Production of 6He and 18Ne for EURISOL DS - T. Stora and EURISOL task 3 participants / CERN + CEA Saclay • 6He from a BeO target surrounding a n converter – optimization N. Thiollière and coworkers CEA Saclay • 18Ne from a MgO target - Factor 5 below requirements • Direct production, alternative production methods – M. Loiselet S. Mitrofanov / UCL Laboratoire du Cyclotron • 7Li (p,2p)6He • 16O (3He,n) 18Ne – Interesting, large targets and intense 3He beams • Ionization and cooling ring - C. Rubbia, A. Ferrari, Y. Kadi, V. Vlachoudis et al. / CERN • Novel ideas with new baseline isotopes 8Li and 8B • A general concept - could be used beyond EURISOL and beta beams • Ionization and bunching - T. Lamy and T.

  9. Ion production 6He (tungsten or liquid metal as neutron converter and BeO as target) 18Ne (spallation, direct on magnesium oxide) Short-fall of ions if classical methods used Proposal to produce other isotopes Isotopes like 8Li and 8B better Higher Q -> higher energy neutrinos 05/02/08 9 EUROnu, Elena Wildner, CERN, 05/02/2008

  10. Ion acceleration Linac Multiple charge state acceleration? Accumulation in the PS of 20 RCS bunches PS2? SPS, new 40 MHz and 200 MHz systems give 10 ns long bunches into the decay ring. 05/02/08 10 EUROnu, Elena Wildner, CERN, 05/02/2008

  11. Neutrino production Decay ring 7000 m 36 % straight sections, 5T superconducting magnets (6He up to g=150) Stacking (dilated life-time) by assymetric merging Do we need it? If we can relax on the dutyfactor we can fill the complete Decay Ring and we can use a ”barrier bucket filling scheme” (ref. FNAL anti-protons) Collimation and absorption of decayed ions 05/02/08 11 EUROnu, Elena Wildner, CERN, 05/02/2008
