225 Ac was first produced artificially at the Institute for Transuranium Elements (ITU) in Germany using a cyclotron and at St George Hospital in Sydney using a linac in 2000.
Beta radiation from linac accelerators is far more energetic and penetrating than natural beta radiation.
The first option is to add 400 MeV "afterburner" superconducting linac at the tail end of the existing 400 MeV.
As such, impractically long linac structures were required for higher-energy particles.
The new linac site will be located on top of a small portion of Tevatron near the Booster ring in order to take advantage of existing electrical and water, and cryogenic infrastructure.
The second segment of linac will be operated at 325 MHz and energy increased up to 177 MeV.
