The Spallation Neutron Source is a state-of-the-art neutron-scattering facility presently being constructed in Oak Ridge, TN as a collaborative effort among six national laboratories. The ion beam generated in the high-power particle-accelerator system is accelerated to 1 GeV in the superconducting portion of the linac. This acceleration is accomplished with niobium superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities operated at 2.
Summary| For close to a year and a half, a study has been in [progress at NAL to examine the feasibility of con-•structing the "Energy Doabler" -an accelerator emjploying superconducting magnets which would increase
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
