Invited Oral Presentation MC4 – Hadron Accelerators Hadron Accelerators (Invited)

Speaker

Remington Thornton (Los Alamos National Laboratory)

Description

The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) has been in service for over 50 years. The LANSCE accelerator is exhibiting an increasing rate of end-of-life issues, particularly in the “front end” region – from the ion sources to the end of the 100-MeV drift tube linac (DTL). The LANSCE Accelerator Modernization Project (LAMP), recently been approved for CD-0, will replace the existing LANSCE front end with new ion sources followed by an RFQ and new DTL, with co-acceleration of H- and H+ through the RFQ and DTL. This talk outlines the scope of the LAMP project with a focus on the efforts of building and commissioning the RFQ Test Stand which will demonstrate simultaneous dual beam species through an RFQ.
