Nonlinear optics is a promising idea potentially opening the path towards achieving super high beam intensities in circular accelerators. Creation of a tune spread reaching 50% of the betatron tune would provide strong Landau damping and make the beam immune to instabilities. Recent theoretical work* have identified a possible way to implement stable nonlinear optics by incorporating nonlinear focusing elements into a specially designed machine lattice. In this report we propose the design of a test accelerator for a proof-of-principle experiment. We discuss possible studies at the machine, requirements on the optics stability and sensitivity to imperfections.

This paper presents an overview of experimental and theoretical studies on laser stripping that have been conducted up to the present time in the SNS project. The goal of this work is to develop techniques to achieve the experimental preconditions necessary for the successful realization of a future intermediate experiment on laser stripping. The experimental work consists of the tuning and measurement of H־ beam parameters in readiness for the intermediate experiment, and also takes into account the features and possibilities of the SNS accelerator.
