Popis: The R&D of the baseline positron source target for ILC is still ongoing after TDR due to the uncertainty of rotating vacuum seal and water cooling system of the fast spinning target wheel. Different institutes around the globe have proposed different approaches to tackle this issue. A spinning target wheel system with sliding contact cooling has been proposed by ANL. The proposed system eliminated the needs of rotating vacuum seal by using magnet bearings and vacuum compatible motor driven solid spinning wheel target. The energy deposited from positron production process is taken away via sliding cooling pads sliding against the spinning wheel. Details about this new target system are presented in this paper.
