The SPIRAL 2 facility is now under construction and will deliver either stable or radioactive ion beams. First tests of nickel beam production have been performed at GANIL with a new version of the large capacity oven, and a calcium beam has been produced on the heavy ion low energy beam transport line of SPIRAL 2, installed at LPSC Grenoble. For the production of radioactive beams, several target∕ion-source systems (TISSs) are under development at GANIL as the 2.45 GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion source, the surface ionization source, and the oven prototype for heating the uranium carbide target up to 2000 °C. The existing test bench has been upgraded for these developments and a new one, dedicated for the validation of the TISS before mounting in the production module, is under design. Results and current status of these activities are presented.
SPIRAL 2装置正在建设中，将提供稳定或放射性离子束。已在GANIL使用大容量烤箱的新版本进行了镍束生产的首次测试，并在安装于格勒诺布尔LPSC的SPIRAL 2重离子低能束传输线上产生了钙束。为了生产放射性束，GANIL正在开发几种靶/离子源系统（TISS），如2.45 GHz电子回旋共振离子源、表面电离源以及用于将碳化铀靶加热至2000°C的烤箱原型。现有测试台已针对这些开发进行了升级，并且正在设计一个新的测试台，用于在将TISS安装到生产模块之前对其进行验证。本文介绍了这些活动的结果和当前状态。
