  Within the frame of the CERN PS Booster (PSB) energy upgrade from 1.4 to 2 GeV, the PSB to PS transfer line will be adapted for pulse-to-pulse modulated operation. A modified lattice is presented including a re-design of the switching dipole between ISOLDE and PS and additional collimators to protect the PS injection septum. Optics solutions optimized for small emittance LHC beams as well as for the large emittance high-intensity beams are shown.

  Design studies have been initiated at CERN for exploring the prospects of future high-power proton beams for producing neutrinos within the LAGUNA-LBNO project. These studies include a possible increase of the SPS beam power from 500kW to 700kW for a new conventional neutrino beam line based on the CNGS technology, and at a second stage a 2~MW High-Power Proton Synchrotron (HP-PS) using the Low Power Superconducting Proton Linac (LP-SPL) as injector. A low energy 5GeV-4MW neutrino super-beam alternative based on a high-power version of SPL is also considered. This paper concentrates on the HP-PS by exploring the parameter space and constraints regarding beam characteristics, machine hardware and layout, for reaching the 2~MW average beam power.
