Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics, under contract number DE-AC02-06CH11357. The Argonne National Laboratory ATLAS accelerator’s Intensity and Efficiency Upgrade project has been successfully finished [1]. This upgrade substantially increases beam currents for experimenters working with the existing stable and in-flight rare isotope beams and for the neutron rich beams from the Californium Rare Isotope Breeder upgrade. A major portion of this project involved the replacement of three existing cryomodules, containing 18 superconducting (SC) accelerator cavities and 9 superconducting solenoids, with a single cryomodule containing 7 SC 72.75 MHz accelerator cavities optimized for ion velocities of 7.7% the speed of light and 4 SC solenoids all operating at 4.5 K. This paper reports the measured thermal load to the 4 K and 80 K coolant streams and compares these results to the pre-upgrade cryogenic system. |
