Operation of the TRIUMF (20-500 MeV) proton irradiation facility

Abstract

The TRIUMF proton irradiation facility can cover an energy range from below 20 MeV to 500 MeV using two extracted proton beam lines which operate into the same experimental area. The range of proton intensities is ideal for single event effect testing and high enough for some radiation damage testing of components. Neutrons, pions and higher intensity protons are also available at TRIUMF.
