Graduate student support for accelerator physics projects on ARIEL

2010年6月，加拿大创新基金会(CFI)批准了对TRIUMF超导电子直线加速器(e-linac)的资本资助，作为先进稀有同位素实验室(Ariel)的第一阶段。加速器于2014年9月成功试运行。CFI已经批准了第二阶段(ARIEL-II)的资金，省级对匹配资金的批准即将敲定。ARIELII包括两个新靶站的基础设施，以及电子诱导的光裂变和质子诱导的裂变、层裂和碎裂反应产生的同位素的离子束输送系统。这些放射性同位素随后被输送到核、核天体物理和材料科学研究以及医学应用的实验中。

Capital funding for a superconducting electron linear accelerator at TRIUMF, known as the e-linac, was approved through the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) in June 2010, as the first phase of the advanced rare isotope laboratory (ARIEL). The accelerator was successfully commissioned in September 2014. CFI has approved funding for the second phase (ARIEL-II) and provincial approval for matching funding is nearly finalized. ARIEL II includes infrastructure for two new target stations and ion beam delivery systems for isotopes produced by electron-induced photo-fission as well as by proton-induced fission, spallation and fragmentation reactions. These radioisotopes are then delivered to experiments for nuclear, nuclear astrophysics, and material science research, as well as for medical applications.
