CW accelerators suitable for spallation neutron sources

Description

An accelerator-driven steady state neutron source will require a high current, high energy, 100% duty factor accelerator. No suitable accelerator has yet been built, but the technology to do so exists and examples of all of the likely components have been tested. This paper reviews some of the component test programs with comments on the problems specific to this application. (author)
