Description
The 400 MeV Fermilab Linac Upgrade commissioning began August 28, 1993. High energy physics collider operation (run lb) began in November 1993 and ended March 1, 1996. The Linac, operating at 98% reliability, provided 400 MeV H- beam to the Booster and 66 MeV H- beam to the Neutron Therapy Facility. During this time, the beam intensity, which initially was administratively set to 35 mA, rose to a peak of 50 m A while losses decreased significantly. This paper discusses the Linac operation and reliability since the Upgrade. (author)
