	The European Spallation Source (ESS) is one of Europe's largest planned research infrastructure. The collaborative project is funded by a collaboration of 17 European countries and is under design and construction in Lund, Sweden. The ESS will bring new insights to the grand challenges of science and innovation in fields as diverse as material and life sciences, energy, environmental technology, cultural heritage solid-state and fundamental physics. A 5 MW, long pulse proton accelerator is used to reach this goal. The pulsed length is 2.86 ms, the repetition frequency is 14 Hz (4 % duty cycle). The choice of SRF technology is a key element in the development of the ESS linear accelerator(linac). The superconducting linac is composed of one section of spoke cavity cryomodule (352 MHz) and two sections of elliptical cavity cryomodules (704 MHz). These cryomodules contain Niobium SRF cavities operating at 2 K. This paper presents the superconducting linac layout and its lifecycle.

The European Spallation Source (ESS) is one of Europe's largest planned research infrastructure. The collaborative project is funded by a collaboration of 17 European countries and is under design and construction in Lund, Sweden. The ESS will bring new insights to the grand challenges of science and innovation in fields as diverse as material and life sciences, energy, environmental technology, cultural heritage solid-state and fundamental physics. A 5 MW, long pulse proton accelerator is used to reach this goal. The pulsed length is 2.86 ms, the repetition frequency is 14 Hz (4 % duty cycle). The choice of SRF technology is a key element in the development of the ESS linear accelerator(linac). The superconducting linac is composed of one section of spoke cavity cryomodule (352 MHz) and two sections of elliptical cavity cryomodules (704 MHz). These cryomodules contain Niobium SRF cavities operating at 2 K. This paper presents the superconducting linac layout and its lifecycle.
