abstract = {{The ESSnuSB, a neutrino facility based on the European Spallation Source, aims at measuring, with precision, the charge-parity (CP) violating lepton phase at the 2nd oscillation maximum. The ESS linac will have to be upgraded to provide an additional 5 MW beam for the ESSnuSB to produce an unprecedented high-intensity neutrino beam. An accumulator ring is employed to compress the 2.86 ms long pulse from the linac to around 1.5 µs in order to satisfy the target requirements and improve the physics performance. In the operation of a high-intensity proton accumulator, the most important issue is to minimize the uncontrolled beam loss to reduce component activation to make hands-on maintenance possible. For this purpose, a two-stage collimation system is designed, which consists of a thin scraper to scatter halo particles and secondary collimators to absorb those scattered particles. Phase advances between scraper and secondary collimators, together with the material, the thickness of collimators, have been detailed studied and numerical simulations have been performed to evaluate the performance of the collimation system. This paper presents the design of the collimation system.}},
