IsoDAR@Yemilab: A Conceptual Design Report for the Deployment of the Isotope Decay-At-Rest Experiment in Korea's New Underground Laboratory, Yemilab

Abstract: This Conceptual Design Report addresses the site-specific issues associated with the deployment of the IsoDAR experiment at the Yemilab site. IsoDAR@Yemilab pairs the IsoDAR cyclotron-driven $\bar{\nu}_e$ source with the proposed Liquid Scintillator Counter (LSC) 2.5 kton detector. This document describes the proposed siting: requirements for the caverns to house the cyclotron, beam transport line, and target systems; issues associated with transport and assembly of components on the site; electrical power, cooling and ventilation; as well as issues associated with radiation protection of the environment and staff of Yemilab who will be interfacing with IsoDAR during its operational phases. The onset of construction of the IsoDAR area at Yemilab, in tandem with the release of this design report, represents a key step forward in establishing IsoDAR@Yemilab.
