Possible Development of µSR Capacity at Fermilab Project X

The proposed high intensity linac Project X at Fermilab can produce milliamp beams of protons at an energy of 1 GeV in its first construction phase. The beams have a programmable timing structure which allows for a wide variety of applications. Such a beam may be used to produce surface muons at a number of targets. In addition to particle physics applications, dedicated targets can be used for pulsed or bulk CW μSR with adjustable power. A surface target can also form part of a high-power facility, and can generate Low Energy Muons for a variety of studies. The status of the conceptual design is discussed.
