ESS-Bilbao WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTS
The workshop brought together more than 160 experts from across the world, leaders in the fields of high power proton accelerators, beam dynamics and targets, in a format and infrastructure that promoted open discussion,while maintaining the focus of documenting clear recommendations for future collaborative R&D efforts.
Design update: ESSB Preparatory work
Reference group meetingshttp://indico.hep.lu.se/categoryDisplay.py?categId=44
• RG1: CERN, 6 February 2009• Present: 7 people (ESS, CERN, BNL, CEA)• Theme: Recent progress in SCRF technology and what implications this has on the ESS (2003) linac
design • Main outcome: Tentative parameter list for ESSS linac proposal
• RG2: Lund, 25 February 2009• Present: 9 people (ESS, CERN, BNL, CEA, TSL, MSL, FNAL)• Theme: Develop the tentative ESSS linac design from RG1• Main outcome: PAC09 contribution
• RG3: CERN, 5 June 2009• Present: 20 people• Theme: What can we learn from SNS and the SPL study?• Main outcome: Demonstrated the necessity to prototype and perform (cold) acceptance tests of all
structures. Decision to work on strong links to both SNS and CERN-SPL
• RG4: Århus, 9 October 2009• Present: 30 People• Theme: Transition (energy) from NC to SC structures
• RG5: Bilbao, 23 November 2009• Present: 35 People• Theme: Beam losses and operational simulations
Design update: ESSS Preparatory work
• Work with expert group (the ESSS linac reference group)
352.2 MHz 704.4 MHz
Many cavities!
• Approx. 200 cavities, RF distribution is a major part of budget!
• Minor default => Major problem, big risk• Can we keep RF source and distribution budget
under or at level with the 2003 design value?

Option ConfigurationCost of 4 cavity (K-
Euro)For Against
1 Four cavities per Klystron2420 Fewest power sources
Complexity, bulk, power overhead, fault tolerence
2 One Cavity per Klystron 2880
Reduced hardware inventory, minimum R&D, fully independent control, minimum RF power overhead, best fault tolerance, easy upgrade to HPSPL
Number of power sources
2a One cavity per IOT 2520As above, perhaps cheaper & more compact
HPSPL would need doubling of IOTs, or larger rating IOTs
3 Two cavities per Klystron 2520 Half the number of klystronsNeed full hardware set, associated R&D, Power overhead, Reduced flexibility wrt option 2
3-VM Two cavities per KlystronWithout VMs
2370Half the number of klystrons, more economical than Option 3
Risk for higher intensity?

ESS Guidelines (adopted by ESS STC)
Starting point is the 2008 ESFRI Roadmap specification
Performance parameters • Neutron production 30 times SNS today• Peak neutron flux 30 times ILL´s average flux• Time-averaged flux equal to ILL
Electrical power supply 32 MW to 38 MW
Accelerator key parameters • A proton linac• Proton energy range: 1 to 2.5 GeV• Pulse frequency range: 10 to 20 Hz• Pulse length range: 0.8 to 2 msec• Beam power nominal: 5 MW• Beam on target: > 95 % reliability• Beam loss: ~ 1 W/m
Target station key parameters• A single target station• Cold and cold-thermal moderators• A liquid metal target: mercury or lead-alloys, Solid rotating target as fall-back
22 beam ports (11 North, 11 South)
or 11 beam ports South and 22 neutron guides North.
Base line for ESS – v0
Technical Design Report with cost to completion for the end of 2012:
• Proton linac: 5 MW, protons, 1.0-2 ms pulse, 20 Hz at 2.5 GeV
• Aim for 1.0 ms pulse length• Priority: i) power couplers (>1.2 MW?), ii) additional cryomodules and/or iii) higher energy
• Final decision on pulse length to be taken for the TDR
• Upgradable for higher power (repetition rate or pulse current) and for H-
10-50 MeV
Higher energy:•Size of moderator•Distribution and direction of hadronic cascade
Examples of risks to be addressed
• High losses in the linac• Action: Comprehensive studies of beam
dynamics (simulations and theory)
• Poor reproducibility in cavity performance
• Action: Quality control during manufacturing and prototyping of a sufficient large number of cavities
• Limits in cavity performance due to field emission
• Action: Prototyping and comprehensive tests of complete cryomodule
• Lower power limit than expected of power couplers
• Action: Prototyping, sufficient conditioning facilities and contingency in linac design
Writing Group
• Project plan for the linac design update and prototyping
• Design Report for the end of 2012• Prototyping will run longer
• Responsibilities within WG• S.Peggs – Beam physics• C.Oyon – project planning• M. Lindroos – coordination• R. Duperrier – System
• WG schedule and milestones• Status report 3 February STC• Presentation of project plan 23 April STC• Review and audit of Project plan before STC in October
Collaboration model for linac design!
Work Package (work areas)

• A strong Coordination Team in Lund to take the intellectual ownership of the design, to follow the work, to assure good project cost control, and to be responsible for project integration
• A collaboration board to assure good coordination and to address poor performance
• Use of common standards, web based documentation, regular reporting and appropriate costing tools
• Regular reviews of critical path deliverables and even milestones of large work packages (if at a single institute)
