Abstract
To maximize the physics potential of future neutrino oscillation experiments, it is proposed to build a 15-MW `proton driver' consisitng solely of a 3-GeV proton injector linac (PI) and a 17-GeV superconducting ILC-type linac (SCL). The proposed facility would provide proton beams with intensities more than an order of magnitude higher than those at the existing proton synchrotron complexes. Multi-MW proton beams could also be used to produce high-intensity antiproton, `cold' neutron, kaon, pion and muon beams for a diverse program of experiments in particle and nuclear physics.
