The linac of the SNS accelerator facility can be used to produce an electron beam with 300-400 MeV energy. At present there are a few predesigned experiments with electron beam that can be alternatively carried out at the SNS. However, the SNS linac is designed and optimized for acceleration of H , which brings some problems when considering direct acceleration of electrons. Alternative machine setup for electron acceleration and transport are discussed. Here, we present a study of the optimal electron beam parameters that can be achieved without any significant changes of the SNS accelerator.

Traditional space charge driven resonances, such as beam halo, arise due to the underlying linear nature of accelerator lattices. In this talk, we present initial results on a new class of intrinsically nonlinear lattices, which introduce a large tune spread naturally. The resulting nonlinear decoherence suppresses the onset of beam halo.
