The next generation of high power targets will use more complex geometries, novel materials, and new concepts (like flowing granular materials); however, the current numerical approaches will not be sufficient to converge towards a reliable target design that satisfies the physical requirements. We will discuss what can be improved in the next 10 years in target modeling to support high power (MW class) targets.
To realize and test advanced accelerator concepts and hardware, a beamline is being reconfigured in the Linac Extension Area (LEA) of APS linac. A photo-cathode RF gun installed at the beginning of the APS linac will provide a low emittance electron beam into the LEA beamline. The thermionic RF gun beam for the APS storage ring, and the photo-cathode RF gun beam for LEA beamline will be accelerated through the linac in an interleaved fashion. In this paper, the design studies for interleaving lattice realization in APS linac is described with initial experiment result
