    International audienceIn the SPIRAL 2 Linac, a 5 mA, CW, Deuteron beam is accelerated up to 40 MeV, through a normal conducting (NC) RFQ and 26 independent-phase superconducting (SC) quarter wave resonators, working at 88.05 MHz. Tube and solid state amplifiers derived from the standard FM transmitter modules are foreseen while a new digital control system is being designed for the feed-back and feed-forward amplitude and phase control.. The paper presents the power and low level systems for both the NC and SC cavities and results of simulations of the RF system in operating conditions

    International audienceThe SPIRAL2 project at GANIL is based on a superconducting ion continuous wave LINAC with two associated experimental areas named S3 (Super Separator Spectrometer) and NFS (Neutron For Science). This paper will report the main contributions of Mechanical Design Group at GANIL to the project. Mechanical engineers have been highly involved since 2005 from the pre-design of the accelerator and its development until present to finalize the installation. During the development phase, design and numerical simulation were used throughout the complete process: from the ion sources, to the LINAC accelerator, then through beam transport lines to experimental halls equipped with detectors. The entire installation (process, buildings and systems) is integrated in 3D CAD models. The paper focuses on three equipments designed in collaboration with electronics engineers and physicists : the Rebuncher in Mean Energy Beam Transport line; the Instrumentation Profiler SEM and the Target Chamber in S3. SPIRAL2 also has to meet safety requirements, such as seismic hazard, therefore the dynamic simulations performed to demonstrate the mechanical strength in case of earthquake will also be detailed
