China Spallation Neutron Source Completes Important Milestone Equipment Installation Task, Beam Power Exceeds 200 kW
To minimize the impact on user operations, the China Spallation Neutron Source Phase II Project (CSNS-II) utilizes the annual summer shutdown window to carry out Phase II equipment installation. During this year's summer shutdown, the project team completed the installation and commissioning of the front-end equipment of the linear accelerator, all solid-state modulators, and the third magnetic alloy cavity of the rapid cycling synchrotron. At this point, all equipment of the CSNS-II accelerator except the superconducting accelerator has been installed. After nearly a month of beam commissioning, on October 20, 2026, the facility's beam power exceeded 200 kW and officially entered user operation, reaching twice the Phase I design beam power. This is also an important milestone in the CSNS-II construction, providing key verification for achieving the Phase II...
