Title: | A Target-Temperature Monitoring System for Cyclotron Targets: Safety Device and Tool to Experimentally Validate Targetry Studies | Authors: | Carmo, Sérgio do Oliveira, Pedro M. de Alves, Francisco |
Keywords: | cyclotron; targetry; thermal study | Issue Date: | 2018 | Publisher: | MDPI | Serial title, monograph or event: | Instruments | Volume: | 2 | Issue: | 3 | Abstract: | The present work describes an experimental system enabling temperature measurement in cyclotron targets’ cooling water during bombardment. The developed system provides sensible and immediate response to variations of irradiation conditions during bombardment and enables quantification of the temperature rise in the cooling water due to beam interaction with the irradiated target and with its collimator. Such a system finds application either as a monitoring safety device to instantaneously detect and register abnormal alterations in target conditions to anticipate thermal-related incidents and as a tool to experimentally validate cyclotron targetry optimization studies and thermal simulations. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/107683 | ISSN: | 2410-390X | DOI: | 10.3390/instruments2030009 | Rights: | openAccess |
