Project X Injector Experiment - PXIE

PXIE is the integrated systems test for the Project X frontend. It is expected to accelerate a 1-mA CW beam up to 30 MeV. The White Paper for its proposal can be found here. The block-diagram of the machine is presented below.  The major goal of the project is a validation of the Project X concept and elimination of technical risks. It is expected to be constructed in the period of 2012-2016.

Mission Goals:

Validate critical technologies required to support the Project X Reference Design concept.

· Provide a platform for demonstrating operations of Project X front end components at full design parameters

· Integrated systems test goals:

o 1 mA average current with 80% bunch-by-bunch chopping of beam delivered from the RFQ

o Efficient acceleration with minimal emittance dilution through at least 15 MeV
