Abstract :
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) accumulator Ring, when completed in 2006, will be capable of delivering a 1.0 GeV, 1.4 MW proton beam to a liquid mercury target for neutron production. This paper presents an overview of the issues and logistics associated with the preparation and installation of the accelerator Ring System. The preparatory activities which occurred at BNL, vendors and at the SNS will be discussed as well as the installation sequence and status.
