“…In this project, extreme conditions, that do not have any equivalence in other running ISOL facilities, are gathered: very high radiation level due to the break up of 200 kW of 40 MeV deuteron beam in a graphite converter, high out-gassing due to the close vicinity of a 2.3 kg UCx target, 3 months running time without possibility of manual intervention. Indeed, the target and ion source units [22] have to carefully fulfil the following requirements: to be radiation hard, reliable at least during 3 months and of course as efficient as possible. Four different kinds of sources will be used for the ionization of the radioactive atoms, depending on their chemical properties: a surface ion source, a FEBIAD ion source, a resonant laser ion source and an ECR ion source.…”
