The FREIA Laboratory at Uppsala University focuses on superconducting technology and accelerator development. It actively supports the development of the European Spallation Source, CERN, and MAX IV, among others. FREIA has developed test facilities for superconducting accelerator technology such as a double-cavity horizontal test cryostat, a vertical cryostat with a novel magnetic field compensation scheme, and a test stand for short cryomodules. Accelerating cavities have been tested in the horizontal cryostat, crab-cavities in the vertical cryostat, and cryomodules for ESS on the cryomodule test stand. High power radio-frequency amplifier prototypes based on vacuum tube technology were developed for driving spoke cavities. Solid-state amplifiers and power combiners are under development for future projects. We present the status of the FREIA Laboratory complemented with results of recent projects and future prospects.

Two superconducting quarter-wave resonator (QWR) prototypes have been fabricated and tested. They operate at 80.5 MHz and 161 MHz and are optimised for beta = 0.085 and beta = 0.16, respectively. The prototypes are simplifie
The Edwards Accelerator Laboratory at Ohio University is the hub for a vibrant program in low energy nuclear physics. Research performed with the labs 4.5MV tandem accelerator spans a variety of topics, including nuclear astrophysics, nuclear structu
re, nuclear energy, homeland security, and materials science. The Edwards Lab hosts a variety of capabilities, including unique features such as the beam swinger with neutron time-of-flight tunnel and the integrated condensed matter physics facility, enabling experiments to be performed with low-to-medium mass stable ion beams using charged-particle, gamma, and neutron spectroscopy. This article provides an overview of the current and near-future research program in low energy nuclear physics at Ohio University, including a brief discussion of the present and planned technical capabilities.
We present a facility for direct measurements at low and very low energies typical for nuclear astrophysics (NA). The facility consists of a small and robust tandem accelerator where irradiations are made, and an ultra-low background laboratory locat
ed in a salt mine where very low radio-activities can be measured. Both belong to Horia Hulubei National Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering (IFIN-HH) but are situated 120 km apart. Their performances are shown using a few cases where they are used. We argue that this facility is competitive for the study of nuclear reactions induced by alpha particles and by light ions at energies close or down into the Gamow windows. A good case study was the 13C+12C fusion reaction, where the proton evaporation channel leads to an activity with T1/2 = 15 h, appropriate for samples transfer to the salt mine. Measurements were done using the thick target method down into the Gamow window for energies from Ecm=2.2 MeV, which is the lowest energy ever reached for this reaction, up to 5.3 MeV, using 13C beams from the 3 MV tandetron. The activation method allowed us to determine a cross section of the order of 100 pb. Reactions induced by alphas were also measured. Proton induced resonant reactions were used to calibrate the accelerator terminal voltage. Some results of the experiemnts characterizing the assembly are sown and discussed.
The development of magnetic cogging is part of the Fermilab Booster upgrade within the Proton Improvement Plan (PIP). The Booster is going to send 2.25E17 protons/hour which is almost double the present flux, 1.4E17 protons/hour to the Main Injector
(MI) and Recycler (RR). The extraction kicker gap has to synchronize to the MI and RR injection bucket in order to avoid a beam loss at the rising edge of the extraction and injection kickers. Magnetic cogging is able to control the revolution frequency and the position of the gap using the magnetic field from dipole correctors while radial position feedback keeps the beam at the central orbit. The new cogging is expected to reduce beam loss due to the orbit changes and reduce beam energy loss when the gap is created. The progress of the magnetic cogging system development is going to be discussed in this paper.
Particle accelerator projects share many characteristics with industrial projects. However, experience has shown that best practice of industrial project management is not always well suited to particle accelerator projects. Major differences include
the number and complexity of technologies involved, the importance of collaborative work, development phases that can last more than a decade, and the importance of telerobotics and remote handling to address future preventive and corrective maintenance requirements due to induced radioactivity, to cite just a few. The openSE framework is a systems engineering and project management framework specifically designed for scientific facilities systems and equipment studies and development projects. Best practices in project management, in systems and requirements engineering, in telerobotics and remote handling and in radiation safety management were used as sources of inspiration, together with analysis of current practices surveyed at CERN, GSI and ESS.
