SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar
DESCRIPTION:
 Katharina Domnanich, Michigan State University, 
 will be speaking.\n
 \n
 The seminar title is "Radiolysis 
 in the FRIB Beam Dump."\n
 \n
 When exotic, 
 secondary beams are produced at the Facility 
 for Rare Isotopes (FRIB), a majority of 
 the primary beam will remain unused and will 
 be stopped in a water-traversed, spinning drum 
 of Ti64 alloy. With the dissipation of such 
 large amounts of energy, a plethora of valuable 
 radionuclides is formed. Exploratory research 
 with the heavy ion beams from the NSCL 
 (National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory) 
 demonstrated the feasibility of a synergistic 
 collection, and the process has become colloquially 
 termed â€˜isotope harvestingâ€(TM). 
 However, next to nuclear, also radiolysis reactions 
 are induced. The thereby created molecular 
 radiolytic products, such as hydrogen 
 peroxide, molecular hydrogen and oxygen, exhibit 
 sufficiently long life times to allow an 
 accumulation. In order to ensure adequate water 
 conditions for isotope harvesting, knowledge 
 about the behavior of these species is vital.\n\n
