Oral presentation
The current contribution will detail a Post Irradiation Examination (PIE) on a spent antiproton production target (AD-target), which has been irradiated for around 10 years in the AD machine. The iridium core is estimated to have been irradiated up to 5 DPAs. The cutting procedure has well as all the measurements executed on the samples will be discussed as well as the path forward to other...

Oral presentation
In preparation for isotope harvesting with a water-filled beam dump at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), a flowing-water target connected to an isotope harvesting water system has been created and used in preliminary experiments. The target shell was made with a Ti64 alloy through additive manufacturing to reflect the material that is planned for the FRIB beam dump. Experiments with...

Oral presentation
The harvesting of rare isotopes at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) is accomplished by the deposition of heavy ion beams in a water filled beam blocker. With the dissipation of such large amounts of energy, not only a plethora of radionuclides is formed, radiolysis reactions are induced as well. The thereby created various radiolytic products can either react with each...

Oral presentation
Several super-alloys in the mid-Z range have been explored as targets for pion production to enable high-intensity neutrino sources. These allows have included Inconel-718, super-Invar, the Gum multi-functional alloys and the α+β titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V.
In this presentation the phase stability of the Ti-6Al-4V following irradiation with 140 MeV protons at the Brookhaven Linac Isotope...
