  Fermilab’s high intensity horizon is “Project-X” which is a US led initiative with strong international participation that aims to realize a next generation proton source that will dramatically extend the reach of Intensity Frontier research. The Project-X research program includes world leading sensitivity in long-baseline and short-baseline neutrino experiments, a rich program of ultra-rare muon and kaon decays, opportunities for next-generation electric dipole moment experiments and other nuclear/particle physics probes, and a platform to investigate technologies for next generation energy applications. A wide range of R&D activities has been started to support mission critical accelerator subsystems, such as high-gradient superconducting RF accelerating structures, efficient RF power systems, cryo-modules and cryogenic refrigeration plants, advanced beam diagnostics and instrumentation, high-power targetry, as well as the related infrastructure and civil construction preparing for a construction start as early as 2017. The status and prospects of developing the accelerator design, research program, and associated collaborations will be presented.
* The Project X program spans several Sub Classifications: A08, A14 A17, A21, A28.

  Results of simulation of power loss due to excitation of longitudinal high order modes (HOMs) in the accelerating superconducting RF system of CW linac of Project X are presented. Beam structures corresponding to the various modes of Project X operation are considered: CW regime for 3 GeV physics program; pulsed mode for neutrino experiments; and pulsed regime, when Project X linac operates as a driver for Neutrino Factory/Muon Collider. Power loss and associated heat load due to resonance excitation of longitudinal HOMs are shown to be small in all modes of operation. Conclusion is made that HOM couplers can be removed from the design of superconducting RF cavities of Project X linac.  
 
WEPPD058 The Project-X 3 GeV Beam Distribution System cavity, cryogenics, linac, ion 2651

  In the Project X facility, a 3 GeV H CW beam is delivered to three users simultaneously. This will be accomplished by selectively filling appropriate RF buckets at the front end of the linac and then utilizing a RF splitter to transversely separate bunches to three different target halls. A compact TE113 squashed-wall superconducting RF cavity has been proposed to produce the initial vertical deflection. The transport line optics, cavity design parameters, and cryogenic system requirements will be presented.

  • P. Derwent
    Fermilab, Batavia, USA
 
  This presentation should present recent developments in the accelerator physics and technology supporting the intensity frontier research in high energy physics. It should discuss the long and short base line neutrino experiments and the experiments with muons (muon-to-electron conversion and g-2).
