With a total project cost of $272 million the recently completed Proton Power Upgrade at the Spallation Neutron Source increased accelerator capability from 1.4 to 2.8 MW, and the first target station from 1.4 to 2.0 MW. 700 kW of beam power will eventually be sent to the Second Target Station. PPU installed 7 high-beta cryomodules, and HPRF to increase the H- linac energy from 1.0 to 1.3 GeV,...
The international accelerator centre FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) is being built at the GSI Helmholtz Centre in Darmstadt Germany. The first project stage includes the superconducting 100 Tm heavy ion synchrotron SIS100, the Super Fragment Separator and the associated beam transport lines. Part of GSI's existing accelerator chain, consisting of UNILAC and SIS18, will serve...
For the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS), the rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) accumulates and accelerates the injection beam to the design energy of 1.6 GeV and then extracts the high energy beam to the target. As the second phase of the CSNS, CSNS-II will achieve a beam power on the target of 500 kW. The injection energy of CSNS-II will be increased from 80 MeV to 300 MeV and the...
