Description
TRIUMF had been operating high intensity proton beams at >100 µA and 480-500 MeV over 40 years for producing pion, muon, neutron, radioactive ion beams and medical isotopes. During this time many radiation damage effects have been observed and measured. The highest fluences are on the meson production targets at about 1023 protons/cm2per year. TRIUMF has several locations for proton irradiation studies and these will be described along with a few examples of radiation damage measurements.
