Motivation Future neutrino experiments will most likely require beam power exceeding 2MW at energies of 40 GeV and above. To provide this intense beam, the proton source must be capable of providing 400kW at the 8 GeV injection energy of the Main Injector. • The Fermilab Main Injector has the potential to provide intense energetic proton beams that can unlock discovery opportunities in neutrino physics and flavor physics. Project X Overview - McGinnis
Motivation • Currently, the relatively modern Main Injector is fed protons by an aged proton source. • The current Fermilab proton source provides on the order of 30kW for the current neutrino program and has the capability of providing up to 70kW. • Space charge tune shift at injection into the Booster limits the beam power in the current Fermilab proton source • Space charge is almost completely mitigated if the proton source is replaced by an 8 GeV Linac. • The major issue of an 8 GeV injector linac is cost. • Superconducting RF technology raises economic cross-over point between a linac and a synchrotron to the few GeV range. • Fermilab Proton Driver design. Project X Overview - McGinnis
Motivation • One of the key features of the superconducting 8 GeV linac is the synergy it shares with the ILC design. • Alignment of technology between Project X and the ILC would help in both directions • The 8 GeV Linac would benefit from • Enormous engineering effort being expended on the design of the ILC main linac. • Cost savings resulting from ILC industrialization, • Technological advances from ILC R&D Project X Overview - McGinnis
Motivation • ILC industrialization would benefit greatly from the construction of a superconducting 8 GeV linac. • The ILC industrialization profile outlined in the RDR calls for each region • to double production capacity over a four year program • a capacity to produce 25 cryomodules per year at the end of the fourth year. • After four years, each region would have produced over 45 cryomodules. (~2% of the ILC) • The high energy end of the superconducting 8 GeV linac requires about forty ILC-like cryo-modules. • Construction of the superconducting 8 GeV linac could serve as the impetus for ILC industrialization • Added bonus of providing a strong physics program with real discovery potential. Project X Overview - McGinnis
Motivation • The 8 GeV Linac should be made to look as ILC -like as possible. • Same beam parameters • 9mA with 1 ms long pulse at a rate of 5 HZ • Same configuration • cryomodules for b = 1 • RF distribution for b=1 • Cryogenic distribution for b=1 • But 2 MW requires 150x1012 protons every 1.4 seconds at 120 GeV • 24 mA x 1.0 mS = 150x1012 protons (more klystrons) • 9 mA x 2.6 mS = 150x1012 protons (longer pulse length) • 9 mA x 1.0 mS = 56x1012 electrons (ILC) Project X Overview - McGinnis
Recycler as a Proton Accumulator • A holding or accumulation ring inserted between the 8 GeV Linac and the Main Injector can reduce the charge/pulse of the 8 GeV Linac to the same charge/pulse of the ILC linac. • Feed consecutive pulses of beam from the 8 Gev Linac into the Recycler every 0.2 seconds (5Hz) • The H- linac beam is stripped in the Recycler • Each Linac pulse is over-laid on top of the previous Linac pulse be re-energizing the stripping system. • Three Linac pulses is 150x1012 protons • Extract beam from the Recycler and load the Main Injector in a single turn Project X Overview - McGinnis

8 GeV Physics Program • The other advantage to stripping in the Recycler is that the stripping system is available to the Linac while the Main Injector is ramping. • There is 0.8 seconds left before the Recycler needs to be reloaded for the Main injector • Load and spill 4 pulses for an 8 GeV physics program • Upgrade Paths • 9 mA x 1 ms x 5 Hz = 360 kW at 8 GeV • 9 mA x 3 ms x 10 Hz = 2100 kW at 8 GeV • 27 mA x 1 ms x 10 Hz = 2100 kW at 8 GeV Project X Overview - McGinnis

Project X Overview - McGinnis
Summary • Project X is an intense 8 GeV proton source that provides beam for the Fermilab Main Injector and an 8 GeV physics program. • The source consists of an 8 GeV superconducting linac that injects into the Recycler where multiple linac beam pulses are stripped and accumulated. • The use of the Recycler reduces the required charge in the superconducting 8 GeV linac to match the charge per pulse of the ILC design so that much of the ILC technology can be used in the design. • Although there are many challenging technical issues to building an intense protons source , these issues seem to be surmountable. • The purpose of the workshop is to discuss accelerator physics and technology issues of Project X and explore possible areas of overlap and interest between various particle accelerator laboratories and universities Project X Overview - McGinnis
