June 20, Project X RD&D Program Goals The goal of the Project X RD&D program is to provide support for a Critical Decision 1 (CD-1) in 2010, leading to a CD-2/3a in –Design and technical component development; –Development of all project documentation mandated by DOE 413.3; –Formation of a multi-institutional collaboration capable of executing both the R&D plan and the provisional construction project.

June 20, Project X RD&D Plan for FY08 The main goal for the Project X RD&D Plan for FY08 is –to get an initial cost estimate for Project X for CD0. –Begin on long-term R&D items To prepare an initial cost estimate for CD0, the design of Project X must be further developed. To organize the labor resources in FY08, each level 2 manager reviewed the FY08 goals formulated in the RD&D plan. See From Project X RD&D Plan presentation, May 28, 2008 – Dave McGinnis 4 The basic scheme of Project X is: –An 8 GeV Linac operating at ILC-like parameters –H- stripping and proton accumulation in the Recycler –Beam distributed to the Main Injector for acceleration to 120 GeV –Beam distributed to an 8 GeV slow spill program The major components that comprise Project X are: –A front end linac operating at 325 MHz (max energy 600MeV). –An ILC-like linac operating at 1300MHz. –An 8 GeV transfer line and H- Injection system. See next slide –The Recycler operating as a stripping ring and a proton accumulator. –The Main Injector acting as a rapid cycling accelerator. –A slow extraction system from the Recycler. –120 GeV Neutrino beamline. –Civil Construction and Utilities –Controls –Cryogenics Refine conceptual design where an initial cost estimate could be started this fall working toward a CD0 next spring

June 20, Where is the absorber ? Does it need to move a little or a lot ? Does it need a separate enclosure? Is civil construction needed? How much?

June 20, Thermal Calculations for PD Injection Absorber Thermal calculations (steady-state temperature) –Ambient temperature 25 deg C –nominal 6.6 kW with water cooling -> 43 deg C –Nominal 6.6 kW cooling water failure -> <300 deg C –132 kW with water cooling -> 622 deg C Can this survive Project X {and upgrade} intensities ? What’s prudent and what’s required? Initial thermal calculations done by Alex Chen using energy deposition data from MARS provided by Igor Rakhno.

June 20, Requirements for Project X Radiological requirements- same as for Proton Driver given in Beams Doc 2187 Nominal Beam Power 360 kW (8 GeV) -> 2.8E14/sec Assume Fermi year 5500 hr Assume 10% to injection absorber (x2 larger than PD) –5.6E20/year to absorber (x5.5 over PD) 6.6 kW -> 36 kW Peak beam Power 2 MW (8 GeV) -> 1.5E15/sec –3E21/year to absorber Must withstand 2 full intensity beam pulses with out harm Design for nominal but understand what modifications would be required for peak beam power of 10% of 2 MW -> 200 kW + margin Does this still fit inside the enclosure? Do we need air handling?

June 20, Beam Line Collimation

June 20, PD Transport Line Transfer Line Design for Proton Driver Transfer Line for Project X will be very similar A B C D E F G foil debuncher Momentum collimation foil m BPM TrimQuad Foil (momentum collimation) Dipole half quad Foil (betatron collimation) Betatron Coll. absorber

June 20, Option for Project X Transport Line The upstream end of the transport line remains unchanged. The new vertical bend section moves transport line further under MI-65 (needs to be verified) collimation New section

June 20, Transport line Collimation The function of the transfer line collimation is to safely remove large amplitude halo generated in the linac to reduce loss in the transport line and ring, shape the transverse beam size of the beam on the injection foil to minimize H- foil misses and minimize foil dimensions, and protect the beam line and Main Injector from errant beam pulses of the wrong energy with a momentum collimator, located at the maximum dispersion of the first arc. Betatron collimation 2 step process-> foil in front of quad strips large amplitude particles and quad de-focuses then drift to absorber Momentum collimation 2 step process -> foil in front of quad strips off- momentum particle and downstream dipoles sweep protons out of the beam line to an external absorber. Design each foil/absorber for a 1% loss as shown below Collimator360kW2MW Linac power Betatron3.6 kW20 kW Momentum (routine)3.6 kW20 kW Momentum (single pulse)72 kJoules200 kJoules

June 20, Tracking Simulation using TRACK which tracks H-,H+,H0 for only vertical collimation Will eventually add in all collimation points Just after foil Just after quad Just before absorber foils

June 20, Fixed or Movable Aperture Absorber? SNS utilizes a movable foils and fixed aperture absorber. Used for machine protection. –Problem when foils need to move closer beam misses absorber. We would like to utilize movable foils AND movable absorber aperture. –This complicates absorber design

June 20, Action Items What do we need to do to get started? Are the currently defined deliverables and tasks appropriate? Any modifications? What level of drafting support do we need? Do we need to bring anyone else on board immediately? Regular meetings ? Frequency? AD ME support? FESS support? How do we address Linac Absorber?
