Abstract
- Design of a target able to withstand a high intensity beam such as those planned for a Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider requires integration of particle yield optimisation with engineering feasibility studies. This article reports a basic thermo-mechanical analysis of cylinders of common engineering materials irradiated by an 8 GeV proton beam (Neutrino Factory beam energy) of varying sigma. Beam induced peak temperature jump, a typical temperature distribution, peak energy density, peak quasi-static Von Mises stresses and material yield strengths are reported here as a reference guide for target design.
