Proton beam loss between window and the target in the SNS ring to target beam transport can be completely eliminated, if Plasma Windows replace solid vacuum windows.Consequently, all problems associated with proton solid-window interaction will no longer exist. The Plasma Window is a novel apparatus, which utilized a short plasma arc to provide a vacuum-atmosphere interface without any intrusive solid structures.Extrapolating present technology to SNS implementation is a straightforward engineering issue. Among the many advantages that this technology offers are: elimination of a 4% proton beam loss, water removal from vacuum interface and elimination of radioactive water problems, as well as power and vacuum equipment savings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
