Liquid-hydrogen targets at the FRS

There are several liquid-hydrogen targets available at the FRS, one permanently installed in the target area (S0) of the FRS (named FRS I Target)[1], another one for multi-purpose use at the intermediate image plane (S2) and at the exit (S4) of the FRS (named FRS II Target).

The parameters of the liquid hydrogen targets usable at the FRS are given in this file. A technical drawing of the target mounted in the target area is shown below.

A safety manual for the FRS II target is available as Word or PDF file.

Procedures to fill, empty and stop the FRS II target are available as PDF file.

The gas-supply system of the FRS is described elsewhere.
