N2  - This novel kind of neutron beam facility will provide 1 ns short neutron pulses with an approximately thermal energy distribution around 30 keV. The pulse repetition rate will be up to 250 kHz, the total proton number per pulse will be up to 6×1010 in the final stage, starting with a p – source current of 200 mA. A second target station will allow n – activation experiments by cw beam operation. An intense 2 MeV proton beam will drive a neutron source by the 7 Li (p,n) 7 Be reaction. The facility is under construction at the physics experimental hall of the J.W. Goethe – University. The 1m thick concrete tunnel was installed in 2009. In 2011 all rf amplifiers will be delivered and installed. Successful 200 mA proton source experiments in 2010 at a test stand will be followed by experiments on the 120 kV FRANZ terminal in 2011. The 250 kHz, 100 ns chopper in front of the rf linac is under construction, while the 2 MeV bunch compressor design was finished and the technical design of all components has started. The main accelerator cavity is under construction. First 2 MeV beam tests are expected for end of 2012.
