Developments Of A Multiplexer System For The High-Brilliance Neutron Source Hbs

The High-Brilliance Neutron Source project (HBS) aims at developing a medium-flux accelerator-driven neutron source based on a 70 MeV, 100 mA proton accelerator. The concept optimizes the facility such that it provides high-brilliance neutron beams for instruments operating at different time structures. This can be realized by generating an interlaced proton pulse structure, which is unraveled and sent to three different target stations by a multiplexer system. In the following we present the developments of a multiplexer system at the JULIC accelerator at Forschungszentrum hilich GmbH (FZJ), which serves as test facility for HBS. The main components of the JULIC multiplexer system are designed to be scalable to the HBS parameters.
