The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams driver linac provides CW beams of all the stable ions (from protons to uranium) with a beam power of 400 kW and a minimum beam energy of 200 MeV/u in order to produce a wide variety of rare isotopes, mainly for nuclear physics study. The low beam emittances, both transverse and longitudinal, are key performance requirements, together with beam stability. These are required for efficiently separating one isotope from another, the reason for choosing this linac configuration. Multi-charge states (five charge states for the uranium case) are accelerated for maximizing the beam current, while keeping the low emittances. The efficient acceleration of high beam currents from 0.5 MeV/u through the superconducting linac is, needless to say, one of the biggest challenges. The beam power is more than 200 times higher than existing similar SC heavy ion linac. In particular, the SC cavities are difficult to protect from heavy ion beam damage, which can be 30 times larger locally than a proton beam with the same beam power. Other challenges peculiar to the FRIB linac will be presented, together with the solutions.
