Abstract
LINUS is a project at the INFN Legnaro National Laboratories (LNL, Italy) to create a suite of different neutron sources (LSNS, NEPIR, SLOWNE) driven by existing accelerators. LSNS, driven by a 40 mA, 5 MeV proton RFQ, will use Li and Be targets to deliver cold, thermal, epithermal and fast neutrons. The SPES high current (0.75 mA), 70 MeV proton cyclotron will drive the NEPIR and SLOWNE facilities. NEPIR will alternatively deliver quasi mono-energetic neutrons with energy peak down to 20 MeV, and a neutron beam with a continuous energy distribution similar to that of neutrons present in the Earth atmosphere in the accessible energy range. SLOWNE is an intense neutron source for applications outside the LSNS range.
