Induced radioactivity of the IHEP proton synchrotron beam extraction equipment

The measurement results of induced radioactivity of the beam extraction equipment during 1972-1978 are presented. All the values are given to the moment of the accelerator stop. The experimental data permits to predict further possible variations of the induced radioactivity levels of the equipment. Given are the measures required for reduction of the accelerator equipment irradiation, which are the following: 1) compensation of residual distortion of a closed beam orbit in the course of the induction system operation; 2) limitation of the intensity of drop on the internal targets up to the <=5x1011 protons per target level over a cycle; 3) putting into operation the program control system for the duration of a current pulse of a linear accelerator to minimize the beam residues at the 70 GeV energy during physical experiments; 4) construction of the system of beam interception and cutting-off to ensure effective energy suppression of uncontrolled beam residues and localization of their radiation effect; 5) extraction of a high-energy beam out of the accelerator during the experiments (e.g., into the neutrino channel for apparatus adjusting) instead of its dropping on the interceptor-target; 6) beam orbit controlling in the case of multiturn injection into the accelerator
