October 21, '97 Program
Guest Speaker: Dr. Bill Appleton, ORNL
The National Spalation Neutron Source, and Neutron Science in Oak Ridge
During FY 1996 and 1997 ORNL led a collaborative effort among five DOE National Laboratories to perform the R&D and conceptual design for a next-generation neutron source, the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS). The Conceptual Design Report for SNS is complete and has been thoroughly reviewed by DOE, and the project is preparing for a construction line item request for FY 1999. This talk will provide an overview of collaborative approach to designing and constructing SNS, the SNS technical reference design and experimental plans, the proposed construction schedule, and cost. The current program and funding status of SNS will be presented, interactions with UTK will be discussed, and future plans for neutron science at ORNL will be reviewed.
