Description
In the framework of MUNES (MUltidisciplinary NEutron Source) project, INFN is building an accelerator driven neutron source devoted to BNCT applications and to nuclear waste characterization. The source is based on three key components that were developed in the last few years at Legnaro National Laboratory (LNL): a high intensity proton injector, a high power Radio-Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) and a high efficiency Beryllium converted. Accelerator status, recent RFQ high power test results and future plans will be presented.
