Radiation damage in the target area shielding of a facility for Selective Production of Exotic Species ( SPES Project )
The advancement of radioactive ion beam (RIB) science since its advent in the last few decades calls for the development of so-called next generation facilities, able to provide beam intensities several orders of magnitude higher than presently available. Two of them are planned by the European roadmap and are representative of the two main methods by means of which RIBs are produced nowadays: projectile fragmentation and isotope separation on-line (ISOL); the latter, based on the ISOL technique, is the EURISOL project: the plan encompasses the construction of three intermediate facilities, one of which is expected to be built at Legnaro (Padua) INFN Laboratories: the SPES Project (Selective Production of Exotic Species).

Strategies for glass based photonic system integration
There is a clear tendency to integrate more and more opto-electronic and micro-optical components like optical fibers, laser diodes, modulators, isolators, beam-splitting components and micro lenses in also increasingly dense and complex assemblies. The paper will discuss thin glass as a very promising base material for that kind of photonic packaging on interposer and board level including optical interconnection using fibers.
