Front-end physics design of APT linac

Description

The accelerator for the Accelerator based Production of Tritium (APT), uses a radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ), followed by the newly developed coupled-cavity drift tube linac (CCDTL) and a coupled- cavity linac (CCL). The production target requires the APT linac to deliver a 100 mA proton beam with an energy of 1.3 -1.7 GeV. The main challenge in the design comes from the requirement to minimize beam loss. Hands-on maintenance of the entire linac requires very little beam loss
