description | High power proton driver accelerators are used to generate secondary particles at high
intensities, such as pions, muons, neutrons and ultracold neutrons or neutrinos.
The applications of these facilities have a broad spectrum in the fields of particle physics and
condensed matter physics. Another industrial application under discussion is transmutation
with accelerator driven systems. On the other hand, the production of megawatt-class
proton beams implies the consumption of electrical power on a large scale. New projects
and operating facilities must focus on improving the energy efficiency with a higher priority.
This is especially true for linacs suggested for ADS-type applications, which may have to
deliver >10 MW beams. With this workshop we are aiming to support such developments
towards higher efficiency. The goal of this workshop is to consider the whole power
conversion chain from grid to the secondary radiation needed at the experiments. In
addition, important auxiliary systems of proton drivers are covered, such as cryogenic
facilities.
In the first session the motivation for energy efficienct accelerator technology was
summarized. Then the major applications of proton drivers were reviewed – accelerator
driven systems, particle physics research at the intensity frontier and neutron sources for
condensed matter physics. In four sessions the energy efficiency topics beam targets, RF
generation, accelerator concepts and auxiliary systems were discussed. |
