RADIATION PROTECTION AT THE ELI BEAMLINES LASER FACILITY
Original language description
The ELI ERIC (Extreme Light Infrastructure European Research Infrastructure Consortium) aims at developing and operating the next generation of high-power laser systems in Europe. The Czech pillar of the consortium is the ELI Beamlines facility. It hosts world-class lasers with peak powers reaching 10 PW and repetition rates of up to 1 kHz. There, laser-driven beamlines deliver ultra-bright and ultra-short sources of X-rays, ions, and electrons for fundamental and applied research. Beam time is offered to users worldwide. The pulsed mixed radiation fields generated at the facility are challenging from a radiation protection standpoint. The facility beamlines feature cutoff energies reaching up to hundreds of MeV for ions and GeV for electrons. The beams are characterised by a broad spectrum with radiation delivered over an extremely short time structure, generally less than 1 ps. Furthermore, copious amounts of stray ionizing radiation are produced in reason of the intrinsic laser-matter interactions and beam scattering. An overview of radiation protection considerations at the facility is presented on the topics of radiation shielding and monitoring, and Monte Carlo simulation studies. Additionally, radiological case studies of beamlines under commissioning are presented.
