  For demonstrating the technical feasibility of nuclear waste transmutation in an Accelerator Driven System (ADS), the MYRRHA (Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications) proton driver is under intensive studies. Good performance of the 2 – 4 mA, 1.5MeV RFQ (Radio-Frequency Quadrupole), the start of the accelerator chain, is essential to the reliability of the whole facility, so it must be very well designed. On the basis of the first reference design, further improvements with respect to electrode aperture, emittance growths and output distributions have been performed. The simulation results of the new reference design are presented in this paper.

  The FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) Proton-Linac (P-LINAC) will be started with a 325.224 MHz, 3 MeV Radio-Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator. To ensure that a ≥35 mA beam can be injected into the downstream synchrotrons, the design beam intensity of this Proton-RFQ (P-RFQ) has been chosen as 70 mA. Based on the so-called NFSP (New Four-Section Procedure) method, two new beam dynamics designs with varying and constant transverse focusing strength, respectively, have been worked out to meet the latest design requirements using a compact structure. This paper presents the main design concepts and simulation results.

  As one of the main components of the injector II of China ADS LINAC project, an RFQ working at 162.5MHz is used to accelerate proton beams of 15mA from 30 keV to 2.1 MeV. The four vane RFQ has been designed in collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and built at the workshop of the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IMP, CAS). Low power test of the cavity have been completed, and it shows the field flatness is within ±1% and the unloaded Q is 12600. RF conditioning has been completed, results of preliminary beam test show the output beam energy is 2.16 MeV with energy spread of 3.5% and the transmission efficiency is 97.9%. Continuous wave (CW) beam of 2.3 mA has been accelerated for more than one hour.
