Texas A and M University proposes to (1) upgrade one gas ion source to a Toroidal Volume Ion Source (TORVIS) source to increase the proton beam current by one order of magnitude; (2) install a target chamber for proton irradiation of molten salt reactor (MSR)-related corrosion testing; (3) equip a Rutherford backscattering spectrometry for in-situ proton-based analysis of specimen thickness change and composition changes.
