Plans are underway to build on this foundation by performing laser-assisted H⁻ stripping of a 10 μs, 1 GeV H⁻ beam at the Spallation Neutron Source facility; this constitutes a three orders of magnitude improvement over the initial proof of principle demonstration. The central theme of the experiment is the reduction of the required laser power through ion beam manipulations and laser-ion beam temporal matching. This paper discusses the configuration of the experiment, the current and anticipated challenges, and the schedule.
