In preparation for SNS ring commissioning, a number of operational issues have been studied using ORBIT Code simulations. These include beam injection without the use of time-dependent painting, beam accumulation and transport to the extraction dump and to the target, optimal painting schemes for various beam intensities, detailed tracking through the extraction septum with fully correct geometry, quadrupole current constraints in the ring-to-target transfer line (RTBT), and detailed modeling of H minus carbon foil stripping at injection. All these studies incorporated detailed physics including beam-foil interactions, symplectic single particle tracking, space charge and impedances, and losses due to apertures and collimation.

This paper presents the design of two beam transport lines at the CSNS: one is the injection line from the linac to the RCS and the other is the target line from the RCS to the target station. In the injection beam line, space charge effects, transverse halo collimation, momentum tail collimation and debunching are the main concerned topics. A new method of using triplet cells and stripping foils is used to collimate transverse halo. A long straight section is reserved for the future upgrading linac and debuncher. In the target beam line, large halo emittance, beam stability at the target due to kicker failures and beam jitters, shielding of back-scattering neutrons from the target are main concerned topics. Special bi-gap magnets will be used to reduce beam losses in the collimators in front of the target.

The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is an accelerator-based neutron source currently nearing completion at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. When completed in 2006, the SNS will provide a 1GeV, 1.44MW proton beam to a liquid mercury target for neutron production. SNS is a collaborative effort between six U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories and offered a unique opportunity for the mechanical engineers to work with their peers from across the country. This paper presents an overview of the overall success of the collaboration concentrating on the accelerator ring mechanical engineering along with some discussion regarding the relative merits of such a collaborative approach. Also presented are a status of the mechanical engineering installation and a review of the associated installation costs.
