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
