MOPWA014	Research and Design of Digital Power Supply for HIRFL-RIBLL Corrector Magnet	power-supply, controls, feedback, ion	690
	Y.Z. Huang, Y.X. Chen, D.Q. Gao, J.B. Shangguan, R.K. Wang, H.H. Yan, Z.Z. Zhou IMP, Lanzhou, People's Republic of China
	One digital power supply was designed for RIBLL (Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou) corrector magnet at HIRFL (Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou). Adopting two parallel connected IGBT full-bridges as the power circuit topology, the power supply can generate bipolar DC current when it runs in the fourquadrant working states, which well meets the requirements of corrector magnet. SOPC platform of Altera based on Nios II is chosen to design the digital power supply regulator. Employing FPGA as the control core and utilizing SOPC principles, the digital regulator is designed against special requirements of accelerator power supply. The test results indicate that performance of the power supply can meet the design requirements.

	A design study has been initiated at CERN for the conception and construction of a short base line neutrino facility, using a proton beam from the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) that will be transferred to a new secondary beam production facility, which will provide a neutrino beam for experiments and detector R&D. This paper resumes the general layout of the facility together with the main primary and secondary beam parameters and the choices favoured for the neutrino beam production.

THPFI050	Some Ideas Towards Energy Optimization at CERN	vacuum, proton, radiation, controls	3400
	H.J. Burckhart, J.-P. Burnet, F. Caspers, V. Doré, L. Gatignon, C. Martel, M. Nonis, D. Tommasini CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	The paper presents the efforts of CERN to optimize its energy usage. Work is proceeding in 3 areas: accelerators, campus and infrastructure, and re-use of thermal “waste” energy. The accelerator chain has the potential to further reduce the energy consumption by dynamic suppression of cycles when they are temporarily not needed and by operating magnets in pulsed mode. R&D for future accelerators includes the recuperation of the RF energy, which is not used for acceleration of the beams. Concerning the CERN campus more than half of the buildings are older than 40 years. Hence there is a big need for renovation, which includes energy aspects. New buildings use renewable energy whenever possible. As an example a building is under construction, which will use a 250 m2 solar field together with an absorption refrigerator for cooling purposes. Finally, about 80% of the electric energy gets dissipated in air cooling towers. Part of this energy can be re-used for heating buildings.

Papaphilippou, A.S. Parfenova, E.N. Shaposhnikova, R. Steerenberg, P. Velten, H. Vincke CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	A design study for a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment (LBNO) with a new conventional neutrino beamline facility (CN2PY) at CERN was initiated in September 2011, supported by EU/FP7 funds. The beam will be aimed at a next generation deep-underground neutrino observatory located at the Pyhasalmi (Finland) mine at a distance of 2300 km. In an initial phase the CN2PY facility will use a 400 GeV beam extracted from SPS up to a maximum power of 750 kW, and in a second phase a 2 MW beam of about 50 GeV produced by a new High-Power Proton Synchrotron accelerator using the LP-SPL as injector also under design. The paper will focus on the design challenges of this MW-class facility and on the optimization studies of the secondary beam elements (target and horns) to produce a neutrino beam spectrum that matches best the experimental requirements for neutrino flavor oscillations and CP-violation tests. The challenges and bottlenecks in the existing CERN accelerator complex to produce the high-intensity beams foreseen for this facility at the initial phase are discussed.
