Expert Group on Shielding Aspects of Accelerators, Targets and Irradiation Facilities (SATIF)
Completed

Scope

The mission of the Expert Group on Shielding Aspects of Accelerators, Targets and Irradiation Facilities (SATIF) has been completed. It dealt with the various aspects of the modelling and design of accelerator shield systems including electron accelerators, proton accelerators, ion accelerators, spallation sources and the following types of facilities: synchrotron radiation facilities; very high energy radiation facilities; accelerator production of tritium and free electron lasers.

The Expert Group inspired the SATIF workshops .

Objectives

The objectives of SATIF were:

  • to promote the exchange of information among scientists in this field;
  • to identify areas in which international co-operation could be fruitful;
  • to carry out a programme of work in order to achieve progress in specific priority areas.
