Ambos elementos están confinados a la propia partícula. HP3 Scan 75x75 mm2 Maria del Carmen Jiménez Ramos y Javier García López

  12. Tracking detectors for FAIR

  13. Diamond detector tests (U. Huelva-GSI-CNA)

  14. Cyclotron 18 MeV (protons), 9 MeV (deuterons) 7 ports for production of radioisotopes PET: 18F, 11C, 13N, 15O 1 external beam: ionic implantation, radiation damage …

  15. Radio-pharmacy Biomolecules marked with 18F, 11C, 13NH3 y H215O used for research and diagnostics CNA provides FDG to PET centers. Contract with andalousian Health service.

  16. PET scanner for small animals • Application for pre-clinical research

  17. Images taken in CNA with 18F Juan José Chao Suances

  18. SARA, AMS system in CNA

  19. Dating by 14C measurements. • Samples of milligrams • 30 min measurements • 1% accuracy • Limit in 50000 years Isabel Gómez Martínez y Javier Santos Arévalo

  20. 239,240Pu measurements in sediments • Green: USA nuclear tests • Moratory between 1958 y 1961 • -Red: USSR tests • -Blue: French and chinese tests. AMS separates 239Pu from 240Pu. Measurement 30 min, 5% uncertainty. Detection limit 4 μBq. Elena Chamizo Calvo

  21. Vertical Objectives for 2010-2013 • Ion Beam Analysis Techniques: Remain as the national reference centre in IBA techniques, in material science, archeometry, environmental sciences. • Accelerator Mass Spectrometry: Consolidate as a European reference in AMS. through a service of 14C dating, Pu isotope separation, and research in accelerator mass spectrometry of different isotopes. • Nuclear Instrumentation: Become a national reference centre in the development of detectors and nuclear instrumentation, and offer a home basis for the nuclear and particle scientists working in large international facilities. • Molecular Imaging: Become a national reference in the development of new radio-pharmaceuticals, and the use of PET imaging techniques, in pre-clinical research in animals and clinical research in humans. • Irradiation: Become a reference laboratory to carry out certified irradiation tests, both with particles and photons, in circuits, solar panels, and other materials of interest for high technology and aero-space companies.

  22. Action 1: Construction of a photon irradiation laboratory:

  23. Action 2: Installation of a human PET scanner

  24. Action 3: Completion of the 14C dating service:

  25. Action 4: Installation of a detector laboratory in CNA:

  26. Action 5: Upgrade of the beam lines in the Tandem and Cyclotron:

  27. Practical cases of CNA usage • I wish to check the purity of my Si detector (IBA Service) • I wish to test the radiation hardness of my electronics (Proposal) • I wish my student/technician to get some some accelerator expertise (Stay-Course) • I wish to test the array I am collaborating in (Proposal-Collaboration) • I wish to develop a new beam line for my research (Letter of intent)

  28. http://www.centro.us.es/cna/ CNA is a user facility (ICTS) open to the spanish and international scientific community. The particle physics community is specially welcome to use the CNA facilities. cna@us.es
