The IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator <ref>[http://irfu.cea.fr/en/Phocea/Vie_des_labos/Ast/ast_technique.php?id_ast=2271 IFMIF-EVEDA: International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility]</ref> will be a 9 MeV, 125mA cw deuteron accelerator, identical to the low energy section of one of the IFMIF accelerators <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Fusion_Materials_Irradiation_Facility International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility]</ref>, which will be tested to verify the validity of the design before launching the IFMIF construction. It includes an ion source, a Radiofrequency Quadrupole cavity and the first module of a superconducting linac based on half wave resonator cavities. As no target is foreseen for the accelerated beam, a beam dump is required to stop it during commissioning and accelerator tests. The beam will be validated before the beam stop using non interceptive diagnostics, due to the high intensity in cw mode. | The IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator <ref>[http://irfu.cea.fr/en/Phocea/Vie_des_labos/Ast/ast_technique.php?id_ast=2271 IFMIF-EVEDA: International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility]</ref> will be a 9 MeV, 125mA cw deuteron accelerator, identical to the low energy section of one of the IFMIF accelerators <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Fusion_Materials_Irradiation_Facility International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility]</ref>, which will be tested to verify the validity of the design before launching the IFMIF construction.
