Description

The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) Accelerator is in the initial planning stages to upgrade the front-end of LANSCE, a project known as the Los Alamos Modernization Project (LAMP). As a part of this upgrade the Low-Level Radio Frequency (LLRF) team will be replacing most of their equipment. This involves removing and installing new equipment related to the sources, injectors, low energy beam transport (LEBT), radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ), medium energy beam transport (MEBT) and the drift-tube linac (DTL). Additionally, a test accelerator will be built to demonstrate the proof of concept for the new systems before removing the front-end of LANSCE. This poster will present the current status of the initial planning of the LAMP project, LLRF’s approach to LAMP, the proposed timeline and goals of the LAMP project.
