Design and Supporting R&D of the XT-ADS Spallation Target
Résumé
The XT-ADS is an experimental accelerator-driven system (ADS) that is being developed within the framework of the European FP6 EUROTRANS project that runs from 2005 to 2009. In this paper the current level of the design of the XT-ADS spallation target and the status of corresponding R&D topics with respect to LBE handling, thermal-hydraulics and spallation product confinement are discussed.
