DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gema Muñiz (Centro Nacional de Aceleradores)\nThe r
 eliability of a device under radiation can be studied\, among others\, bas
 ed on the eventual impact of a particle (Single Event Effects\, SEEs) or a
 ccording to a given dose of radiation accumulated (Total Ionization Dose T
 ID). In the last years\, the National Centre for Accelerators (CNA) has de
 veloped part of its own research studying the production of circuit failur
 es "in vivo" due to different particles radiation\, varying the energy and
  fluence. Starting up in the framework of CEIDES Project\, subproject of *
 RENASER +. \n\nIn this work\, we will present the new capabilities of the 
 CNA to perform components irradiation testing. Thanks to its status as ICT
 S\, the CNA has installed one gamma radiation equipment for research\, mod
 el Gammabeam ® X200 (GBX200) Best Theratronics company. The source instal
 led in the irradiator of this Centre\, with an initial activity of 434 TBq
  (11\,725 Ci)\, has become the most active in our Country. This will encou
 rage photon irradiation studies\, complementing the research in particles 
 irradiation developed in the 3 MV tandem and cyclotron accelerators. \n\nT
 he new facility is available for use by the whole scientific community and
  companies interested in different fields of application. At first\, the l
 aboratory set-up is being done together with the company ALTER Technology 
 (Member of TÜV NORD) within the RADLAB project\, which is associated to I
 NNPACTO scientific program and funding by MINECO. The primary objective is
  to perform irradiation tests of total dose on electronic devices for aero
 space application. Besides aerospace\, the facility is intended to use for
  applications in High Energy Physics\, Materials Science\, Biomedical or i
 onizing radiation metrology.\n\nThe RADLAB project also involves the start
 ing up of a neutron irradiation facility to study different SEEs in electr
 onic devices. The energy spectrum of the atmospheric neutrons ranges over 
 more than 10 orders of magnitude but the main focus is on the high energy 
 end (>10 MeV). These neutrons cause most of the SEE in microelectronics. I
 n particular\, it has been shown that atmospheric neutron SEU and SEFI cro
 ss-sections from 14 MeV neutrons are within \n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/
