Abstract

The development of a low-energy proton accelerator has started as the first phase of the Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP). The low-energy proton accelerator system consists of a 50 keV proton injector, low-energy beam transport (LEBT), 350 MHz, 3 MeV radiofrequency quadrupole (RFQ), 350 MHz, 20 MeV drift-tube linac (DTL), and RF system. The proton injector is under operation, RFQ is testing RF power, and a design of DTL has finished.
