A MeV ultrafast electron diffraction (MUED) instrument is a unique characterization technique to study ultrafast processes in materials by a pump-probe technique. This relatively young technology can be advanced further into a turn-key instrument by using data science and artificial intelligence (AI) mechanisms in conjunctions with high-performance computing. This can facilitate automated operation, data acquisition and real time or near- real time processing. AI based system controls can provide real time feedback on the electron beam which is currently not possible due to the use of destructive diagnostics. Deep learning can be applied to the MUED diffraction patterns to recover valuable information on subtle lattice variations that can lead to a greater understanding of a wide range of material systems. A data science enabled MUED facility will also facilitate the application of this technique, expand its user base, and provide a fully automated state-of-the-art instrument. We will discuss the progress made on the MUED instrument in the Accelerator Test Facility of Brookhaven National Laboratory.

The LANSCE accelerator started routine operation in 1972 as a high-power facility for fundamental research and national security applications. To reduce long-term operational risk, we propose to develop a new Front End of accelerator facility. It contains 100-keV injector with 3-MeV RFQ, and 6-tanks Drift Tube Linac to accelerate particles up to energy of 100 MeV. The low-energy injector concept includes two independent transports merging H+ and H− beams at the entrance of RFQ. Beamlines are aimed to perform preliminary beam bunching in front of accelerator section with subsequent simultaneous acceleration of two different beams in a single RFQ. The paper discusses design topics of new Front End of accelerator facility.
