The paper reports on the first multi-particle simulations for the proton linear accelerator as proposed by the European Spallation Source-Bilbao is here described. The new machine concept which complies with recommendations made at the ESS-Bilbao Worksop on "MW-Spallation Sources: Current Challenges and Future Prospects" held at Bilbao on March 16-18, 2009 profits from advances registered within the field of high power accelerators during the last decade. The design of such a new accelerator layout heavily relies upon the use of low-to-medium beta superconducting spoke resonators and a high beta elliptical cavity section, both of which are already under development. |
