7Managed by UT-Battelle for the Department of Energy WGF01- HB2008 8/26/2008 Quick History and Facts about SNS The SNS is a short-pulse neutron source, driven by a 1.4 MW proton accelerator [ presently at.54 MW]. SNS will be the world’s leading facility for neutron scattering research with peak neutron flux ~20–100x ILL, Grenoble SNS construction project, a collaboration of six US DOE labs, was funded through DOE-BES at a cost of 1.4 B$ SNS will have 8x beam power of ISIS, the world’s leading pulsed source user facility, Stepping stone to other high power facilities, expected to achieve 1.4 MW in two years.

8Managed by UT-Battelle for the Department of Energy WGF01- HB2008 8/26/2008 Motivation to Add &/or Modify More Beam Instruments  Improve reliability  Improve user friendliness – i.e. automation, additional features –  Support, diagnose “unexpected” events – i.e. Spark detectors, LEBT and RFQ RGAs  Accelerator Physics requests – Laser emittance system.  Allow “parasitic” studies; IPM, electron profile monitor. Different types of BLMs.
