  The development of China’s high energy accelerator for half a century falls into two stages, namely the first 20 hovering years (1958-1978) and the later 30 years of rapid development (from 1978 till now). I was lucky enough to have experienced the whole process, witnessed, and to some extent, joined in the decision-making, the projects approval, the designing, the development and construction of China's five large scientific facilities undertaken by the Institute of High Energy Physics in Beijing. A brief review is given of the previous stage of history regarding the consideration of China’s high energy accelerators in the first 20 years. A short presentation is also given of the later 30 years concerning the rapid development of the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider (BEPC and BEPCII), the completed BEPC-based Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), the Chinese Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) under construction, the high-intensity proton accelerator (ADS) used for nuclear waste transmutation and the proton therapy machine in the R&D stage.

  The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) accelerator is designed to accelerate proton beam pulses to 1.6 GeV at 25 Hz repetition rate, striking a solid metal target to produce spallation neutrons. The accelerator provides a beam power of 100 kW on the target in the first phase and then 500 kW in the second phase by increasing the average beam intensity 5 times while raising the linac output energy. The project construction has been formally launched in 2011 and it is planed to complete the project in March 2018. It is one of the high intensity proton accelerator projects in the world and it imposes a great challenge to Chinese accelerator community. This presentation will cover the status and challenges of the CSNS project.
