ACE: Proton beam upgrade plan at Fermilab
- Fermilab
aFor Snowmass and P5, Fermilab recently proposed a new upgrade plan known as Accelerator Complex Evolution (ACE) to occur after PIP-II upgrade in tandem with DUNE/LBNF operation. The first phase of ACE, ACE-MIRT, is the ACE Main Injector Ramp and Targetry upgrade, which would raise the LBNF beam power from 1.2 MW to 2 MW by shortening the Main Injector cycle time to around 0.65s. The second phase of ACE, AC-BR, is the ACE Booster Replacement, which would replace the Booster with a new machine and achieve 2.4 MW for DUNE/LBNF. The implications for the Fermilab neutrino program and future experiments hosted at Fermilab will be discussed.
