Description

The ISIS Facility, which is sited at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL), is the world's most productive pulsed neutron source. Intense bursts of neutrons are produced at 20ms (50 Hz) intervals when a heavy metal target is bombarded by a high-energy (800 MeV) proton beam from a synchrotron accelerator releasing neutrons by the process of spallation.

In addition to producing neutrons, ISIS is also the world's most intense source of pulsed muons for studies in materials science.

The specification provides detailed information for the requirement of a quantity of THREE DC power supplies to be used to power the Septum magnets associated with the DEVA and EMU muon beamlines. One of the required power supplies will act as a spare in case of failure.

Please see our full PR16110 Technical Specification document.

This document can only be found and accessed along with all others, within the Emptoris e-sourcing program which all interested parties must be registered for.
