Talk

In 2022, the DESY II Test Beam Facility was in operation from February to December offering 111 weeks of beam time. After 2020 and 2021, the first year again without extraordinary shutdowns.
In this contribution, a review is given over the test beam period in 2022 and the current status of the facility. This includes an update on the tests for a potential new beam line using the direct...

17. CERN Secondary Beam lines and Test Beam facilities overview

Talk

CERN offers a diverse set of test beam facilities that offer many different particle types over a large momentum range. These secondary and tertiary beams are produced from primary proton and ion beams of the PS and SPS accelerators and serve fixed-target experiments as well as dedicated experimental areas for test beam users. The available beams range from below 1 GeV/c up to 400 GeV/c and a...

22. The Years 2022 and 2023 in the CERN SPS and PS Physics Coordination and Irradiation Facilities

Talk

CERN offers a range of beamlines for fixed target physics and test beam studies in its PS East Area (EA) and SPS North Area (NA) accelerator complex. Additionally, CERN also supports a diverse range of activities via its irradiation facilities, including the PS EA based IRRAD, CHARM, CHIMERA and the SPS NA based GIF++ installations.
The year 2022 was the first year of full physics operation...

20. Test Beam Facilities at Fermilab

Talk

Fermilab plays host to the Fermilab Test Beam Facility(FTBF) and the Irradiation Test Area (ITA). The FTBF is one of the highest energy facilities in the world which is dedicated to helping experimenters develop, test, and calibrate particle detectors. The Fermilab accelerator complex delivers a 120 GeV primary proton beam and secondary/tertiary beams of varying momenta and particle content....

3. Future Continuation of Test Beams at SLAC's End Station A

CARSTEN HAST

Talk

Until end of 2018 SLAC's End Station Test Beam (ESTB) provided 2 - 15 GeV electrons for over seven years to 58 experiments with 701 users. Operation was suspended with the start of LCLS-II construction. We have designed and are installing a new beam line which will connect the LCLS-II 4 GeV CW superconducting RF Linac to End Station A (ESA). In some respects, beam conditions will be similar...

27. KEK PF-AR Test Beamline

Talk

In this presentation, I will report/introduce newly constructed KEK PF-AR Test Beamline.
The beamline is based on KEK PF-AR 6.5 GeV electron storage ring for photon source. The beamline provide continuous 1 kHz electron beam up to 5 GeV.
The beamline is now in commissioning phase and will be open for user from JFY2023.

Talk

After 25 years of successful research in the nuclear and radiation physics domain, the KVI-CART research center in Groningen is upgraded and re-established as the PARticle Therapy REsearch Center (PARTREC). Using the superconducting cyclotron AGOR and being embedded within the University Medical Center Groningen, providing proton beams of up to 190 MeV and ion beams (up to Pb) with energies up...

54. Updates, Status and Experiments of CLEAR, the CERN Linear Electron Accelerator for Research User Facility

Pierre Korysko (University of Oxford (GB))

21/04/2023, 12:00

Talk

Operating since 2017, the CERN Linear Electron Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) is a user facility providing electron beams for a large and varied range of experiments. The electron beam is produced from a Cs$_2$Te photocathode and is accelerated between 60 MeV and 220 MeV in a 20 m long linear accelerator (LINAC). The accelerated beam is then transported to an experimental beamline, in which...

50. The ARES Linac as a Precision Tool for Accelerator Science, Technology and Application Developments

Florian Burkart, Florian Burkart

21/04/2023, 12:20

Talk

The generation and acceleration of ultra-short, high quality electron beams have attracted more and more interest
in accelerator science. Electron bunches with these properties are necessary to operate and test novel high-resolution diagnostics and advanced high gradient accelerating schemes.

The dedicated R&D linac ARES at DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron) is now fully operational...

56. FLASHlab@PITZ

Felix Riemer (Humboldt University of Berlin (DE))

21/04/2023, 12:40

Talk

The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) can provide unique beam parameters regarding delivered dose and dose rate. With an average dose rate of up to 1E7 Gy/s and peak dose rates of up to 4E13 Gy/s, PITZ is fully capable of ultra-high dose rate irradiation which should allow so-called FLASH radiation therapy, a new method of cancer treatment.
A completely new beamline...
