Recent Progress on the ESS Project | |
|
||
The European Spallation Source, ESS, will be the world's brightest neutron source driven by the highest power linac, when it enters into operations. Different parts of the 5 MW ESS linac are being installed in Lund, Sweden and beam commissioning of the source is planned for early summer this year. This contribution will present a summary of the status of the project, including progress in the design, manufacturing and testing of different beam line components of the linac. | ||

TUA1WD01 | ESS Commissioning Plans | 127 |
|
||
The ESS linac is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, and once completed it will deliver an unprecedented 5 MW of average power. The ion source and LEBT commissioning starts in 2018 and will continue with the RFQ, MEBT and the first DTL tank next year and up to the end of the fourth DTL tank in 2020. This paper will summarize the commissioning plans for the normal conducting linac with focus on the ion source and LEBT and application development for both commissioning and operation. | ||

WEP1WB01 | Beam Dynamics of the ESS Linac | 206 |
|
||
The ESS linac will deliver an unprecedented 5 MW of average beam power when completed. Beyond the 90 MeV normal conducting front-end, the acceleration is performed using SC structures up to the design energy of 2 GeV. As the ESS will send the beam to a fixed tungsten target, the emittance is not as important a factor as in injectors. However, the losses have to be studied in detail, including not only the average operational loss required to be of less than 1 W/m, but also the accidental losses, losses due to failure and other potentially damaging losses. The commissioning of the ion source and LEBT starts this year and will continue with the RFQ next year. In this contribution we will discuss the beam dynamics aspects and challenges of the ESS linac. | ||
