Trends, perspectives & opportunities Medium flux reactors optimised for material science/neutron beam - FRM II (2003), OPAL (2007), R10 (Argentina), Brasil, Vietnam, India, Jemen, Marocco, Egypt PIK, - Mian Yang, CARR, - Upgrades: ILL, NIST, IRT-8 Kurchatov, HANARO Multi- MW long pulse spallation sources (e.g. ESS): - order of magnitude higher flux / sensitivity for the same costs - order of magnitude better energy efficiency than ILL reactor - 1.5 B + 100 M operation/year ~100 k /publication - energy cost: ~ 20 M / year Mini (compact) accelerator sources ~ 5 % of costs for 0.1 % of neutron production - No use of fissionable materials: access / security simpler Great potential: neutrons for nuclear waste incineration
