It is a pleasure to be able to come to Abingdon to help in this study of applications of the Spallatron Neutron Source (SNS) to problems of Heavy Ion Fusion (HIF). I feel that I am in a small way repaying those from Rutherford who have contributed so much to our US HIF workshops. In order to review the US HIF program, it is necessary to discuss both the program elements and the political situat...

The paper presents a prototype of the accelerator commissioning and simulation application toolkit based on the Unified Accelerator Libraries (UAL) framework.

The challenges for high-gradient mm-wave driven colliders are reviewed. Requirements on power sources are examined, and a particular tube is considered for illustration. Research topics relevant to a compact 1 GeV linac are noted throughout. Extended Abstract for Invited Talk at the 22nd International Conference on Infrared and Millimeter Waves Wintergreen, Virginia, 20-25 July 1997 (Work suppo...

With an eye toward extending optical wave-mixing techniques to the x-ray regime, we present the first experimental demonstration of a two-color x-ray free-electron laser at the Linac Coherent Light Source. We combine the emittance-spoiler technique with a magnetic chicane in the undulator section to control the pulse duration and relative delay between two intense x-ray pulses and we use differ...

bERLinPro is an energy recovery linac project whose goal is to establish the accelerator physics knowledge and technology needed to produce 50 MeV beams with high current, low normalized emittance, and low losses. The machine will be commissioned in phases beginning in 2018, and extensive planning is underway for start-up of the machine and to prepare for measurements to verify the achievement ...

The Final Focus Test Beam (FFTB) is a new beam line at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center designed to test new beam optics concepts, hardware, and techniques necessary to achieve and measure the small spot sizes required for future generations of high-energy e+e- linear colliders. The FFTB takes a 47 GeVc-1, 1 kW electron beam at the end of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center linear acce...
