Scaled prototype of a tantalum target embedded in expanded graphite for antiproton production: Design, manufacturing, and testing under proton beam impacts
This study presents a further step within the ongoing R&D activities for the redesign of the CERN’s Antiproton Decelerator Production Target (AD-Target). A first scaled target prototype, constituted of a sliced core made of ten Ta rods -8 mm diameter, 16 mm length-embedded in a compressed expan...
