  • Abstract
    Six additional, isolated, and self-contained target stations are being built as part of the upgrade of the three Fermilab Fixed-Target experimental areas. One new system of shielding and semi-remote component handling via a crane has been developed for all of these. Two stations are being operated and two more are under test. The applied system is simple and flexible. It successfully provides semi-remote handling of components within the shielding of the stations.
