A second target station is planned for the Oak Ridge Spallation Neutron Source. The ion source will be upgraded to increase the peak current from 38 to 49 mA, additional superconducting RF cavities will be added to the linac to increase the H− beam energy from 933 to 1300 MeV, and the accumulator ring will receive modifications to the injection and extraction systems to accommodate the higher beam energy. After pulse compression in the storage ring one sixth of the beam pulses (10 out of 60 Hz) will be diverted to the second target by kicker and septum magnets added to the existing Ring to Target Beam Transport (RTBT) line. No further modifications will be made to the RTBT so that when the kicker and septum magnets are turned off the original target 1 beam transport lattice will be unaffected. In this paper we will discuss these and other planned modifications and upgrades to the accelerator facility, and also the status of this project.

As a part or an ongoing process to maintain and improve the performance of its Superconducting Linac (SCL) the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is building facilities for processing and testing Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities. Recently both a High Pressure Rinse (HPR) tool and a Vertical Test Apparatus (VTA) have been built and commissioned. The HPR is a commercially fabricated piece of equipment which is customized for the SNS application. The VTA was specified, designed and developed by the SNS. This paper will outline the design features as well as the commissioning results for both systems.

The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) has built Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) processing and testing facilities to support improvement programs and future upgrades. The Cryogenic Test Facility (CTF) system is capable of delivering liquid helium at 4.5K to different test apparatus in support of SRF testing. This paper describes the final stages of fabrication, commissioning and the initial operation of the Horizontal Test Apparatus (HTA). The HTA allows for cold testing of single jacketed medium-beta or high-beta SRF cavities. Heat loads, capacities, and other performance data collected during operation will be presented. Cavity testing lifecycle for plasma processing research and development will be discussed. System changes to allow for 2K helium operation in the HTA will also be addressed.
