TRIUMF, Canada’s particle accelerator centre, is constructing a new high-power ISOL (Isotope SeparationOn-Line) facility called ARIEL (Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory). Thick porous targets will be bombardedwith up to 48 kW of 480 MeV protons from TRIUMF’s cyclotron, or up to 100 kW of 30 MeVelectrons from a new e-linac, to produce short-lived radioisotopes for a variety of applications, includingnuclear astrophysics, fundamental nuclear structure and nuclear medicine. For efficient release of radioisotopes,the targets are heated to temperatures approaching 2000 C, and are exposed to GSv/h levelradiation fields resulting from intended fissions and spallations. Due to these conditions, the operationallife for each target is only about five weeks, calling for frequent remote target exchanges to limitdowntime. A few days after irradiation, the targets have a residual radiation field producing a dose rateon the order of 10 Sv/h at 1 m, requiring several years of decay prior to shipment to a national disposalfacility. TRIUMF is installing new remote handling infrastructure dedicated to ARIEL, including hot cellsand a remote handling crane. The system design applies learnings from multiple existing facilities,including CERN-ISOLDE, GANIL-SPIRAL II as well as TRIUMF’s ISAC (Isotope Separator and ACcelerator).
