Abstract
The front-end of a neutrino factory (the part of the facility between the target and the first linear accelerator) represented a large fraction, about 40%, of the total facility costs as discussed in a rather comprehensive feasibility study (FS2) [1]. Several recent developments, briefly summarize in this article, lead to the idea that a new design for the front end may be possible and that it is significantly less expensive than the front end used in FS2.
