A Feasibility Experiment of a W-powder Target in the HiRadMat Facility of CERN
Granular solid targets made of fluidized tungsten powder or static pebble bed of tungsten spheres, have been long proposed and are being studied as an alternative configurations towards high-power (>1MW of beam power) target systems, suitable for a future Super Beam or Neutrino Factory.

| description | Granular solid targets made of fluidized tungsten powder or static pebble bed of tungsten spheres, have been long proposed and are being studied as an alternative configurations towards high-power (>1MW of beam power) target systems, suitable for a future Super Beam or Neutrino Factory. Serving the lack of experimental data on this field, a feasibility experiment was performed in HiRadMat facility of CERN/SPS that tried in a pulse-by-pulse basis to address the effect of the impact of the SPS beam (440GeV/c) on a static tungsten powder target. Online instrumentation such as high-speed photography and Laser - Doppler Vibrometry was employed. Preliminary results show a powder disruption speed of less than 0.5 m/s while the disruption height appears to be scaling proportionally with the beam intensity. Other analysis results will be discussed. |
