Slide2

Mission Statement: ESS Radioisotope Production StationExploration of a potential to position ESS as a

key research infrastructure providing a high flux neutron sources for radioisotopes production

dedicated to

medical and pharmaceutical applications, while not compromising the performance and availability of the facility’s main mission.

Slide3

Potential Access Point 1: Unoccupied Beam-Port Beam on Target: 2 GeV, 2.5 mA.

In the experimental hall, there is a space for the transport of the isotope production target.

Unoccupied beam-port could be used for insertion and extraction path for the isotope production target.

Space allocation adjacent to a moderator in a carefully chosen location not shadowing any beamline
