Abstract

The European Spallation Source (ESS) linear accelerator is designed to accelerate a 62.5 mA, 2.86 ms, 14 Hz proton beam up to 2 GeV at the entrance of a rotating tungsten (W) target. Normal Conducting Linac (NCL) and Superconducting Linac (SCL) parts of the accelerator contain over 200 quadrupole, dipole and corrector magnets of different types and parameters for beam envelope and trajectory control. All magnets have been provided to ESS by in-kind collaborators and research institutes across Europe. Following the delivery of these components and their respective power converters to ESS, this proceeding presents the status of the installation together with the methodology and first obtained results from system local and integrated testing phase.
