Safety and decomissioning concerns related to mercury high power spallation targets lead to intense examination of alternative targets, such as Lead Bismuth Eutectics LBE, rotating solid targets and since recently Lead Gold Eutectics LGE. Construction material corrosion studiies in flowing LGE are carried out parallely with corrosion studies in flowing LBE have been carried out.
