Abstract

The Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP) [1] at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) is developing a 100-MeV proton linac in order to supply 20MeV and 100-MeV proton beams to users for proton beam application. The linac consists of a 50-keV injector, a 3-MeV radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) and a 100MeV drift tube linac (DTL). The operation of the 20-MeV part of linac at Daejeon site was finished on November 2011. It was disassembled and moved to the Gyeongju site for installation as a low energy part of the linac. We completed the fabrication and test of the accelerating structures. The installation of the proton linac started in December 2011 at the new project site. The user service is scheduled for 2013 through the beam commissioning in 2012. This work summarized the installation status of the proton linac.
