Proton Driver Front End

WP2 involves the construction of an H Front End Test Stand at RAL for testing the early stages of acceleration (0–3MeV) and beam chopping required for high power proton accelerators, including proton drivers for pulsed neutron spallation sources and neutrino factories.  Flyer
