TRIUMF: Canada's national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics
Annual report, 1967 TRIUMF
Abstract
Activities over the year have been concentrated primarily on the design of the 500 MeV negative ion cyclotron. The major effort has gone into magnet design, based on model measurements. R.F. system design, using a resonator model, was started and a centre region study is in progress, based on electrolytic tank measurements. Beam transport design has been studied with an analog computer. Vacuum system design has been studied with an analog computer. Vacuum system design has been studied in detail. These design efforts have been supported by a survey of industrial resources for the various types of equipment. Engineering services, as available from private firms, have been evaluated. Design of building and site layout has progressed to the stage where an engineering firm can start working out a conceptual design. Pending completion of funding arrangements for the TRIUMF project the design work during 1967 has been supported by an interim grant from the Atomic Energy Control Board, at the rate of $100,000 per annum. As the report shows, a great deal of progress has been made on solving the TRIUMF design problems with the interim funds but it has not been possible to carry out all of the work, for 1967, envisaged in the TRIUMF Proposal of November 1966.
