Radiation Working Group
The Radiation Working Group provides support to the accelerator sector equipment groups for the assessment of radiation tolerance of electronic equipment to be installed in radiation exposed areas. The RADWG is as a forum for electronic engineers to discuss common design practices and appropriate radiation tests, as well as observed radiation induced failures in the…

CHARM
The Cern High-energy AcceleRator test facility (CHARM) is a radiation test facility at CERN born in the context of R2E project. It is used to qualify components and systems mainly for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator equipment applications. The radiation field is generated through the interaction of a 24 GeV/c proton beam extracted from the…

CC60
The CC60 Radiation test facility at CERN was born in the context of the R2E project. It is used to qualify components and systems mainly for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator equipment applications. A gamma radiation field is generated with the use of a Co60 source. The dose-rate can be conditioned to the requirement of…
