Summary

A tilted bimetallic absorber spreads energy while two-millimeter water channels carry it away.

The FRIB prototype combines CuCrZr and Al2219 and was tested in vacuum with a 17-keV electron beam. Infrared and embedded-temperature measurements supported the thermal model under representative loading.
