Project X is a high intensity proton facility that will support a world-leading U.S. program in Intensity Frontier physics over the next several decades. Project X is currently under development by Fermilab in collaboration with national and international partners. Project X will be unique in its ability to deliver, simultaneously, up to 6 MW of site-wide beam power to multiple experiments, at energies ranging from 235 MeV to 120 GeV, and with flexible and independently controlled beam time patterns. Project X will support a wide range of experiments utilizing neutrino, muon, kaon, nucleon, and atomic probes [1,2]. In addition, Project X will lay the foundation for the long-term development of a Neutrino Factory and/or Muon Collider.

  This presentation should describe the Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE)and its connection with Project X. It should focus on the novel aspects of PXIE, namely the programmable, bunch-by-bunch chopping of a CW H beam; acceleration in CW superconducting RF structures immediately following the RFQ; operation of SRF structures adjacent to a high-power chopper target; and preservation of high-quality chopped beams with acceptable emittance growth and halo.

We present an overview of design studies and R&D toward NGLS – a Next Generation Light Source initiative at LBNL. The design concept is based on a multi-beamline soft x-ray FEL array powered by a CW superconducting linear accelerator, and operating with a high bunch repetition rate of approximately 1 MHz. The linac design uses TESLA and ILC technology, supplied by an injector based on a CW normal-conducting VHF photocathode electron gun. Electron bunches from the linac are distributed by RF deflecting cavities to the array of independently configurable FEL beamlines with nominal bunch rates of ~100 kHz in each FEL, with uniform pulse spacing, and some FELs capable of operating at the full linac bunch rate. Individual FELs may be configured for different modes of operation, including self-seeded and external-laser-seeded, and each may produce high peak and average brightness x-rays with a flexible pulse format.

  The Illinois Accelerator Research Center (IARC) is a state-of-the-art facility being built at Fermilab to develop cutting-edge accelerator technologies in collaborations with private industrial partners. The center will also collaborate with local universities to serve as a training facility for a new generation of scientists, engineers and technical staff in accelerator technology.
