The Multi-Mega-Watt Target Station for the European Spallation Source Neutrino Super Beam

International audienceOne of the next challenges in fundamental physics is to understand the origin of matter/antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. In particular, intense neutrinos could play an important role to elucidate this mystery and better understand the expansion of the Universe. The ESSnuSB collaboration proposes to use the proton linac of the European Spallation Source currently under construction in Lund (Sweden) to produce a very intense neutrino super beam, in parallel with the spallation neutron production. A very challenging part of the proposed facility is the Target Station which will have to afford 5 MW proton beam power. This poster will present the hadronic collector and the whole facility to produce the next generation of neutrino superbeam
