Description
The Low Energy Accelerator Development Facility * is located at the site of the Brookhaven National Laboratory (Upton, NY, USA) and is aimed to run a program specially targeting new collaborations for user-driven research. The facility has two fully radiation-shielded bunkers (153 and 77 sq. m) to where a range of electrical, cooling and RF capabilities are presently being introduced. The facility runs also the Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) Facility.
The first shielded bunker will support the deployment of a demonstrator for the Electron Cyclotron Resonance Accelerator ** (eCRA). The deployment is expected to start in April of 2025. At the UED Facility beamline updates are now going into place for a NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory *** electron irradiator beamline for Single Event Effects (SEE) testing; the capability for UED/UEM testing will be expanded; and the deployment of a new stable solid-state modulator and klystron is in progress.
The presented article provides further details.
