CNGS no surface building above CNGS target area many electronics in tunnel area
bull During CNGS run 2007 ndash Failure in ventilation system installed in the CNGS tunnel area due to radiation effects in
electronics (SEU due to high energy hadron fluence)bull modifications during shutdown 200708
ndash Move most of the electronics out of CNGS tunnel areandash Create radiation safe area for electronics which needs to stay in CNGSndash Add shielding 53m3 concrete up to 6m3 thick shielding walls
