  • Beschreibung: The advent of high-current accelerator systems launched the development of high -currentaccelerator-driven neutron sources (Hi-CANS) utilizing low energy nuclear reactions. Thisdevelopment can counteract the increasing shutdown of existing fission -based neutron sources and aresulting decline in available neutron beam days as well as establishing Hi-CANS as the nextgeneration of national neutron sources.A main component of a Hi-CANS is the target station used to convert protons into neutrons, tomoderate the neutrons to the required energy in the meV range, extract the neutrons to the instrumentswith the proper phase space volume as well as to shield the surrounding equipment .Within the High-Brilliance neutron Source (HBS) project, we are developing three target stationsoperated with a short pulse, medium pulse, and long pulse proton beam. The target stations have target/ moderator / reflector geometries optimized to the specific proton beam structure allowing to providetailored neutron beams to each individual neutron instrument. For this, a basic target station setup isused where just the core is modified to fulfill the specific requirements. Such a base layout of the targetstation reduces cost and effort and allows interchangeable composts making it highly modular andversatile.At UCANS 9, we will present the general design ideas of such a Hi-CANS target station and showthe flexibility it offers.
