WP5: Strategies and milestones for accelerator research and technology

Objectives

SMART

  • Support the effort to design a muon collider and to project and plan the required R&D
  • Significantly improve the performance of lepton and hadron accelerators
  • Define a roadmap for long-term accelerator R&D
  • Mitigate intensity fluctuations of slowly extracted beam from synchrotrons
  • Produce a prototype of improved hardware for power supply control to achieve a current stability of ∆I /I < 10-6
  • Design and produce a high-performance RF-amplifier with versatile control for knock-out extraction
