ITEP complex for proton and heavy ion acceleration

The realization of the first stage of reconstruction is not connected with any serious civil engineering work or special equipment construction. The need of very high vacuum (10^-10 tor) and therefore the total reconstruction of the vacuwu system is the most difficult feattn•e of the project. As it was mentioned above development works in this field are successfully advancing. The two-gap accelerator-injector is in the process of installation. IIi.c;h-frequency system is intensively worked at. Development of heavy ion sources is started. The first part of the project can be accomplished within next few year. The works on the second and the third project parts are yet in an initial stage.
