The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is a partnership between six laboratories. To ensure a truly integrated control system, many standards have been agreed upon, including the use of EPICS as the basic toolkit. However, unique within the…
The SNS Project intends to integrate Conventional Facility Controls with its EPICS-based Accelerator and Target Control Systems. EPICS will therefore be used to provide distributed high-level access to all subsystems of the SNS conventional…
Building an accelerator at six geographically dispersed sites is quite mad, but politically expedient. The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), currently under construction in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, combines a pulsed 1 Gev H- superconducting…
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is being designed for operation in 2004. The SNS is a 1 GeV machine consisting of a combination normal-conducting and super-conducting linac as well as a ring and target area. The linac front end is a…
The Source Development Lab (SDL) at BNL consists of a 230 MeV electron linac and a 10 m long wiggler for short wavelength Free Electronic Laser (FEL) development. The original control system [1] was based on the one in use at the National…
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is an accelerator-based neutron source being built in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, by the U.S. Department of Energy. The SNS will provide the most intense pulsed neutron beams in the world for scientific…
The cryogenic system for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is designed by Jefferson Laboratory (JLab) personnel and is based on the existing JLab facility. Our task is to use the JLab control system design [2] as much as practical while…
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is being designed, constructed, installed and commissioned by the staff of six national laboratories, Argonne National Laboratory, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Jefferson National Accelerator…
The SNS has developed a standard power supply interface for the approximately 350 magnet power supplies in the SNS accumulator ring, Linac and transport lines. Power supply manufacturers are providing supplies compatible with the standard…
The European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden is just entering the construction phase with 3 neutron instruments having started in its design concept phase in 2014. As a collaboration of 17 European countries the majority of hardware…
The timing system of the Swiss Light Source is based on the event system concept of APS, Argonne [1]. However, for SLS the hardware was completely redesigned while preserving the software compatibility with the APS system. This gave us a…
External contractors are developing the local cooling and vacuum control systems for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) linac. Soon these systems will be integrated into the facility-wide controls system. Allen-Bradley Logix5000 series…
The Front End of the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) extends from the Ion Source (IS), through a 65 keV LEBT, a 402.5 MHz RFQ, a 2.5 MeV MEBT, ending at the entrance to the DTL. The diagnostics suite in this space includes stripline beam…
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) vacuum instrumentation and control systems are being designed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator facility (TJNAF)…
This poster describes the timing system being designed for Spallation Neutron Source being built at Oak Ridge National lab.
The European Spallation Source (ESS) will provide long neutron pulses for experiments on a suite of different instruments. Most of these will perform neutron data acquisition in event mode, i.e. each detected neutron will be characterised…
The Main Injector (MI) was commissioned using data acquisition systems developed for the Fermilab Main Ring in the 1980s. New VME-based instrumentation was commissioned in 2006 for beam loss monitors (BLM)[2], which provided a more…
Early, tool-free prediction of post-synthesis timing remains a key obstacle to rapid RTL iteration. We introduce TimingLLM, a two-stage retrieval-augmented LLM pipeline that estimates worst negative slack (WNS) and total negative slack…
This paper presents the requirements and design of a Timing Synchronization System (TSS) for the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) control system at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. A clock module has been…
The architecture for Spallation Neutron Source accelerator physics application programs is presented. These high level applications involve processing and managing information from the diagnostic instruments, the machine control system,…
