The J-PARC accelerator, serving the long-baseline neutrino oscillation program in Japan, is engaged in a long-term effort to increase the proton beam power from 500kW to 750kW during T2K data-taking, and ultimately more than 1.3 MW for Hyper-Kamiokande.
The T2K beamline underwent major upgrades in view of the increased beam power, and a successful first run was performed in April...
For fixed-target experiments, final proton beam monitoring is key to controlling the properties of the particle flux exiting the target. The T2K experiment makes use of an Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) monitor for this purpose. In support of the J-PARC 750kW beam power upgrade, this monitor has undergone a series of changes targeted at increasing its tolerance to the higher beam intensity...
Fermilab's neutrino facilities, including NuMI and the upcoming LBNF, use proton beams to produce positively and negatively charged pions and kaons. Detailed simulations are necessary to study particle interactions and beam propagation. To efficiently analyze beam scan effects, we propose a method for generating multiple simulation samples with high statistics. By simulating a single sample...
Beam-intercepting devices face challenges of beam-induced thermal shock and radiation damage effects. Efficient cooling systems are needed to remove heat as beam power increases. Development of novel materials capable of sustaining increased beam power and intensity is crucial for future multi-MW target facilities. In this talk, several promising novel materials will be discussed, including...
As next-generation accelerator target facilities, for Neutrino Program such as the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) or Muon Program such as Mu2e-II at Fermilab, become increasingly more powerful and intense, high power target systems face key technical challenges. Beam-intercepting devices such as beam windows and secondary particle-production targets are continuously bombarded by...
The main ring synchrotron (MR) of Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) provides high power and high intensity beams for the neutrino and hadron experiments. We have been upgrading hardware from the summer of 2021 to shorten the repetition period aiming at 1.3 MW user operation for the neutrino experiments by 2028. The upgrades are progressing smoothly, and 760 kW equivalent beams...
A rich cross-section and "beyond the Standard Model" (BSM) search programme will be served by the intense $\nu_e$ and $\nu_\mu$ beams that will be provided by the neutrinos from stored muons (nuSTORM) facility. Exceptional precision in cross section measurement and exquisite sensitivity in BSM searches are afforded at nuSTORM by the precise knowledge of the flavour composition and the energy...
The Forward Physics Facility (FPF) is a proposed program to build an underground cavern with the space and infrastructure to support a suite of far-forward experiments at the Large Hadron Collider during the High Luminosity era (HL-LHC). The Forward Liquid Argon Experiment (FLArE) is a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) based experiment designed to detect very high-energy neutrinos...
Korea has several cutting-edge accelerator user facilities that are currently operational or in the commissioning phase. These include the 3rd Generation Synchrotron Light Source (PLS-II) and the X-ray Free Electron Laser (PAL-XFEL) situated in Pohang, the Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KOMAC) located in Gyeongju, and the Rare Isotope Accelerator complex for ON-line experiments...
