<strong>MEGAPIE</strong> Objectives<br />
An experiment to to be carried out in the SINQ <strong>target</strong><br />
location to demonstrate the safe operation of a liquid<br />
metal (LBE) spallation <strong>target</strong> of<br />
about 1 MW beam power.<br />
�Demonstration of feasibility for<br />
future ADS development<br />
�Increase neutron flux for SINQ<br />
