Plans for a 750 MeV electron beam test facility at Fermilab

Conference · · Conf.Proc.C070625:2942,2007
A 750 MeV electron beam test facility at Fermilab is in the planning and early construction phase. An existing building is being converted for this facility. The photoinjector currently in use at the Fermilab NICADD Photoinjector Laboratory (FNPL) will be moved to the new facility and upgraded to serve as an injector for a beam acceleration section consisting of three TTF or ILC-type RF cryomodules. A low energy off-axis beamline will be constructed to test ILC crab cavity designs and provide opportunities for other tests. Downstream beamlines will consist of a diagnostic section, a beam test area for additional beam experiments, and high power beam dumps. The initial program for this facility will concentrate on testing ILC-type cryomodules and RF control with full ILC beam intensity. A future building expansion will open up further possibilities for beam physics and beam technology experiments.
