Design, manufacturing and tests of the LIPAc high energy beam transport line

The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) is a projected accelerator-based, D-Li neutron source for fusion reactor materials qualification. LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator) is an accelerator aiming to generate a 125 mA, 9 MeV continuous wave deuteron beam, which is cu...
