  A collaboration of SCK•CEN, IAP and BEVATECH GmbH is currently constructing the room temperature CH section of the 16.6 MeV CW proton injector for the MYRRHA project. The elaboration of all the construction readiness files for the construction of the accelerating cavities of the first CH section (1.5 to 5.9 MeV) is ongoing. In parallel, the planning, development and fabrication of all further components of this accelerator section is in progress, while the full study for the remaining section is under preparation. This contribution is documenting the most recent status.

  The new accelerator complex Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is now under development and construction at JINR, Dubna. This complex is assumed to operate using two injectors: modernized old Alvarez-type linac LU-20 as the injector of light polarized ions and a new Heavy Ion Linear Accelerator HILAc - injector of heavy ions beams. The new heavy ion linac accelerate ions with q/A values above 0.16 to 3.2 MeV/u is under commissioning. The main components are 4-Rod-RFQ and two IH drift tube cavities is operated at 100.6 MHz. Main results of the HILAc commissioning with carbon beam from the laser ion source are discussed.

TUPVA068 The New Injector Design for MYRRHA 2234

  The MYRRHA (Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications) Project is a planned accelerator driven system (ADS) for the transmutation of long-living radioactive waste. A critical passage for the beam quality and especially for the emittance is the injector. Therefore, a new injector design with improved beam dynamics has been developed, featuring low emittance growth rates while using only room temperature structures. The previous design consisted of a 4-Rod RFQ, 7 room temperature and 5 superconducting CH-DTL cavities and 2 rebuncher cavities, whereas the superconducting cavities in the new design have been replaced by 8 room temperature CHs and an additional rebuncher. The main challenge during the development is achieving the required reliability to reduce the thermal stress inside the planned reactor. Therefore, simulations with CST MICROWAVE STUDIO have been made to compare several cooling concepts and to optimize the cavities, especially in terms of the shunt impedance.
