Abstract :
Accelerator beam trips have been identified as a significant issue in the development of high power accelerator driven systems envisioned for transmutation of waste, energy amplifiers, etc. where the accelerator must work in conjunction with a subcritical reactor. In order to enable the design of these systems with the high reliability required, a reliability database is being assembled. This paper provides preliminary results which may be of use in conceptual design considerations.
