In view of the immense lack of neutrons for science and industry, the two Helmholtz Centres Forschungszentrum J\u00fclich and Hereon have jointly submitted a proposal to the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the recent call for the \u201cNational Prioritization Procedure for Large-scale Research Infrastructures\u201d in Germany to place the High Brilliance neutron Source (HBS) project on the national roadmap of future German research infrastructures.<\/p>\n

The proposal aims for funding of the first phase of the HBS facility \u2013 termed HBS Phase-I \u2013 to provide scientists and industrial users with neutrons at five instruments as well as a production site for medical radioisotopes. The submitted proposal is based on the elaborate Technical Design Report as published in 2023, building the HBS-I on the technical and scientific possibilities of a high current accelerator neutron source (HiCANS). The HBS-I will offer small angle scattering, diffraction, reflectometry, imaging and elemental analysis, thus serving the grand challenges in areas of life science and energy research. Easy access, a rolling proposal system and small, brilliant neutron beams with diameters of ~1 mm will enable cutting-edge research and in-situ experiments.<\/p>\n

The instruments will be fed by a high-current proton accelerator system with 100 mA proton current and 20 MeV energy, while the moderation of neutrons is handled in an instrument-specific manner minimizing downtimes and easy replacement of components.<\/p>\n

The project will provide pulsed neutrons with a performance similar to modern neutron user facilities. The HBS developments at JCNS are leading within the framework of HiCANS sources worldwide. The HBS-I would be the first HiCANS neutron facility in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n
