The Proton Improvement Plan II, or PIP-II, project is an essential upgrade to Fermilab’s accelerator complex to enable the world’s most intense high-energy beam of neutrinos for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment at the Long Baseline Neutrino Facility, and a broad physics program, powering new discoveries for many decades to come. PIP-II features a Warm Front End,...

"In the J-PARC Main Ring (MR), beam commissioning has been carried out to increase the beam power to achieve 1.3 MW by JFY2028. For this purpose, it is essential to make safe and reliable judgments on the beam and equipment environments. The MR-status-monitoring-system (CSS-based) has been developed and establied, based on the criteria to find the MR status for beam tuning and stablilizing...

"Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), a high-power linear H- accelerator, is increasing its power capability from 1.4 to 2.8 MW and beam energy from 1 to 1.3 GeV through a long-term project called the Proton Power Upgrade (PPU). With an increase in power and energy, there is even more emphasis to reduce errant beam loss and residual activation in the accelerator...

"At the Paul Scherrer Institute, we have been operating three very different particle accelerators with a common pool of full time operators for more than a decade. A high intensity proton facility, a proton therapy facility and an electron storage ring.
