  This paper gives an overview of the opportunities and challenges of high-intensity, low-energy light-ion accelerators for neutron production. Applications of this technology range from the study of stellar nucleosynthesis and astrophysical phenomena to medical applications such as Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). The paper includes details of the FRANZ facility, under development at Frankfurt University.

For future experiments with heavy ions near the coulomb barrier within the SHE (super-heavy elements) research project a multi-stage R&D program of GSI, HIM and IAP is currently in progress*. It aims at developing a superconducting (sc) continuous wave (cw) LINAC with multiple CH cavities as key components downstream the High Charge Injector (HLI) at GSI. The beam dynamics concept is based on EQUUS (equidistant multigap structure) constant-beta cavities. Advantages of its periodicity are a high simulation accuracy, easy manufacturing and tuning with minimized costs as well as a straightforward energy variation. The next milestone will be a full performance beam test of the first LINAC section, comprising two solenoids and a 15-gap CH cavity inside a cryostat (Demonstrator).
