Аннотация
© 2019 Author(s).A number of heavy-ion accelerators are either under construction (e.g., the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Darmstadt and the High Intensity Accelerator Facility in China) or already in operation at many places worldwide. For these accelerators, activation of construction components due to beam loss, even during routine machine operation, is a serious issue, especially with the upcoming high-intensity facilities. Aluminum is one of the most commonly used construction materials in beam lines, collimators, and other components. Therefore, we report here on activation experiments on aluminum samples to verify and benchmark simulation codes. The analysis was performed by gamma spectroscopy of the irradiated targets. Our results on the induced activity measured in samples irradiated by uranium beams at 125 MeV/u and 200 MeV/u and a xenon beam at 300 MeV/u show activation levels significantly lower than those predicted by FLUKA simulations.
