Thermal stabilities and optimal operating parameters for the Oak Ridge Spallation Neutron Source superconducting linear accelerator

The baseline Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) accelerator will provide a 1-GeV, 1.4-MW proton beam to a mercury target for the production of neutrons. The main acceleration for the H-beam is provided by 81 superconducting cavities installed in 23 cryomodules operating at 805 MHz. The design of the su...
