Collaborations:
frame contract INFN signed!
frame contract PSI signed!PSI Addenda drafts (for COLD activities) are agreed with the partners and need to be written and signed. LEGAL OFFICE WORKS ON IT.
INFN Addenda drafts in the hands of ESRF LEGAL OFFICE
SLAC collaboration contract, got feedback 24th Sept from SLAC. in the hands of ESRF LEGAL OFFICE
NEW!--> CEA Non disclosure agreement in progress. OK for ESRF with modifications. Need project description (simone).
Electrical cabinets soon to be purchased. NEED thermal control for the racks?
Faraday cage removal. 2-6th November
PUBLISHED PAPER to be used as reference for COLD/Linac6GeV project:
https://rdcu.be/Kboh2gS6w24a@article{a2026cold-afc,
year = {2026},
title = {Cold cool copper operation linac demonstrator and preliminary studies for a 6GeV injector linac at {ESRF}},
author = {A, D’Elia and S, Liuzzo and P, Borowiec and V, Serrière and M, Dubrulle and M, Morati and S, White and F, Ewald and N, Benoist and K, Scheidt and B, Roche and C, Benabderrahmane and G, Le Bec and R, Bourtembourg and T, Rozier and J, -L Pons and D, Martin and B, Pelissier and L, Eybert and T, Brochard and C, Maccarrone and J, -L Revol and B, Joly and Y, Gouez and H, Pedroso Marques and P, Colomp and A, Dely and F, Falaise and D, Frichet and Q, Qin and E, Nanni and A, Dhar and W, -H Tan and G, Aymar and A, Latina and D, Alesini and F, Cardelli and A, Giribono and C, Vaccarezza and G, Silvi and M, Andorf and J, Maxson and P, Craievich and R, Zennaro},
journal = {The European Physical Journal Plus},
doi = {10.1140/epjp/s13360-026-08284-2},
abstract = {The {ESRF} mid-term plan for the upgrade of the injection complex foresees a 6 {GeV} full energy linac option. Given the space limitations of the site, the linac must fit in 145 m, compactness is a strong design constraint and high gradient technology is a potential candidate to fulfill this goal. {SLAC} cool copper distributed-coupling technology in C-band [1] was selected to realize such a compact injector linac. A demonstrator (Cool copper Operation Linac Demonstrator, {COLD}) for this technology will be installed at the {ESRF}.},
