Abstract
High-current proton linacs are promising sources of neutrons for material processing and research applications. Recently, a linac design that makes use of a combination of normal-conducting (NC) and superconducting (SC) linac technologies has been proposed for the US Accelerator Production of Tritium (APT) Project. As a result, a multi-year engineering development and demonstration (ED&D) program is underway. In this paper, we will describe the design and merits of the NC/SC hybrid approach. The scope, technology issues, and present status of the ED&D Program, and the participation of industry will also be described.
