  The construction of the new Center-of-Innovation (COI) buiding started at KEK from 2014 for the studies of mass-production of Superconducting-RF accelerators in collaboration with industries. The COI buiding is sitting next to the existing KEK-STF building and will include various Superconducting-RF facilities like clean-room for cavity-string assembly, cryomodule-assembly facility, cryogenic system, vertical-test facility, cryomodule-test facility, input-coupler processing facility, cavity Electro-Polishing (EP) facility, and control-room/office-rooms in the dimension of 80 m x 30 m. The purpose of this new SRF facilities is to establish a close collaboration between SRF researchers and industries in order to prepare for the upcoming large-scale future SRF project, like ILC. This article reports the fabricaion of four TESLA-shape 9-cell cavities for the commisioning of these new facilities. Details of the fabrication of these four cavities will be presented.

An intelligent trigger abnormal beam operation monitoring processor has been designed at the SSRF. By applying digital signal processing algorithms in FPGA, the processor keeps monitoring the beam operation status. It will output a trigger signal and store the turn-by-turn beam position data when abnormal events detected. The abnormal events include injection, beam loss, and abnormal disturbance. This ability makes the processor a powerful tool for abnormal operation causes analysing and machine study.

Open XAL is an accelerator physics software platform developed in collaboration among several facilities around the world. The Open XAL collaboration was formed in 2010 to port, improve and extend the successful XAL platform used at the Spallation Neutron Source for use in the broader accelerator community and to establish it as the standard platform for accelerator physics software. The site-independent core is complete, active applications have been ported, and now we are in the process of verification and transitioning to using Open XAL in production. This paper will present the current status and a roadmap for this project.

  The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. As many facilities worldwide, NSLS II uses the EPICS control system to monitor and control all accelerator hardware. Control system studio (CSS) is used for simple tasks such as monitoring, display, setting of PVs. browsing the historical data, et. al. For more complex accelerator physics applications, a collection of scripts are mainly written in Python and part from Matlab during commissioning. With the close collaboration and fully support from control group, more and more CSS features were developed for operation convenience and several high level applications are interfaced with users in CSS panels for daily use based on softiocs. This paper will present the tools that we have been using for commissioning.

  Neutron is a very good probe to investigate the inner structure of materials. The large neutron facilities like J-PARC MLF and SNS were constructed in this decade, and ESS facility are start to construct. These large facilities are very good tools to study in academic field. But the construction cost is increasing and it is hard to construct at many facilities. And also it is hard to get long beam time. One of the solution of these problems are constructing Compact Accelerator-driven Neutron Source (CANS). We will present the current situation of CANS and the status of the facility of Nagoya University.

  The Super FRS is a two-stage in flight separator to be built next to the site of GSI, Darmstadt, Germany as part of FAIR (Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research). Its purpose is to create and separate rare isotope beams and to enable the mass measurement also for very short lived nuclei. Due to its three branches a wide variety of experiments can be carried out in frame of the NUSTAR collaboration. Due to the large acceptance needed, the magnets of the Super-FRS have to have a large aperture and therefore only a superconducting solution is feasible. A superferric design with superconducting coils was chosen in which the magnetic field is shaped by an iron yoke. We will present the actual design status of the dipole- and multipole magnets as well as the status of the development of the dedicated test facility at CERN.

  During the Long Shutdown 1 (LS1), the LHC beam vacuum system was upgraded to minimize dynamic vacuum effects like stimulated desorption and beam-induced electron multipacting. A quality assurance plan was mandatory due to the demanding vacuum performance and the limited access to the equipment during the following operation period. Laboratory assessment tests and underground interventions were performed following well-defined and approved procedures. All vacuum related activities were documented and written reports stored in dedicated databases. Quality controls were performed to find mechanical, cabling and equipment functionality non-conformities. Possible issues were identified, classified and tracked in a non-conformity database for future corrective actions. This contribution give an overview of the quality assurance policy followed during the LS1 and the non-conformities reported after quality control. Possible future improvements are also discussed.

  The civil construction and utility systems of the 3-GeV Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) at NSRRC are ready for machine commissioning in 2014. To achieve a highly precise control of temperature, the thermal load must be carefully controlled and balanced. On analysis of the characteristics between the water pipes and the balance valves, a specified control philosophy can effectively adjust the pressure load on the branch pipes to balance the water flow. With regard to the air flow, we use a damper, baffle plant or variable air-volume (VAV) box to balance the air flow of each diffuser. Here we discuss the mechanism through a numerical simulation of the hydrodynamics and verify the practical influences of the testing, adjusting and balancing (TAB) for de-ionized water and the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system.

  A compact fatigue testing machine that can be easily inserted into a hot cell for characterization of irradiated materials is beneficial to help determine relative fatigue performance differences between new and irradiated material. Hot cell use has been carefully considered by limiting the size and weight of the machine, simplifying sample loading and test setup for operation via master-slave manipulator, and utilizing an efficient design to minimize maintenance. Funded from a US-Japan collaborative effort, the machine has been specifically designed to help characterize titanium material specimens. These specimens are flat cantilevered beams for initial studies, possibly utilizing samples irradiated at other sources of beam. The option to test spherically shaped samples cut from the T2K vacuum window is also available. The machine is able to test a sample to 107 cycles in under a week, with options to count cycles and sense material failure. The design of this machine will be presented along with current status.

The LHC luminosity upgrade plan foresees installation of additional collimators in Dispersion Suppressor areas around point 7 and interaction regions 1, 2 and 5. The required space for these collimators could be provided by replacing some 15-m long 8.33 T NbTi LHC main dipoles (MB) with shorter 11 T Nb3Sn dipoles (MBH) compatible with the LHC lattice and main systems. FNAL and CERN magnet groups are developing a 5.5-m long twin-aperture dipole prototype with the nominal field of 11 T at the LHC nominal current of 11.85 kA suitable for installation in the LHC. Two of these magnets with a collimator in between will replace one MB dipole. The single-aperture 2-m long dipole demonstrator and two 1-m long dipole models have been assembled and tested at FNAL in 2012-2014. The 1 m long collared coils were then assembled into the first twin-aperture Nb3Sn demonstrator dipole and tested. This paper reports test results of the first twin-aperture Nb3Sn dipole model focusing on magnet training, ramp rate sensitivity and temperature dependence of the magnet quench current. The twin-aperture dipole quench performance is compared with the data for the single-aperture models.
