A water-cooled CuCrZr/Al2219 minichannel beam dump was designed and validated with a 17-keV electron beam, matching simulated surface temperatures within 4 percent and supporting FRIB operation beyond 10 kW.

abstract
The PIP-II superconducting RF linac is currently under construction at Fermilab and is expected to be completed by the end of 2028. PIP-II is capable of operating in a continuous-wave mode and can concurrently supply 800 MeV protons to a mega-watt, GeV-scale beam dump facility and to LBNF/DUNE. Designs for proton accumulator rings are being studied to bunch the PIP-II protons into the short pulses needed for neutrino and low-mass dark matter experiments. PIP2-BD is a proposed 100-ton LAr scintillation-only experiment, whose detector design is inspired by CENNS-10 and CCM, that would have world-leading sensitivities to BSM physics, including low-mass dark matter produced in the PIP-II proton beam dump.

Thermal Design and Experimental Validation of a Water-Cooled Bimetallic Minichannel Beam Dump for High-Power Heavy-Ion Accelerators
A water-cooled CuCrZr/Al2219 minichannel beam dump was designed and validated with a 17-keV electron beam, matching simulated surface temperatures within 4 percent and supporting FRIB operation beyond 10 kW.
