abstract = {The use of neutrons is established since decades and
essential for industry, medicine, life sciencesand research.
Classical neutron sources are mainly neutron generators,
with low neutron flux, orresearch reactors and spallation
sources, which are large and cost intensive installations. A
costefficient, effective and compact neutron source could
bridge the gap existing and offer potentialusers either a
dedicated standalone version for high demands of a single
application or a full variableuser facility. Such a compact
accelerator driven neutron source based on a radio frequency
linearaccelerator (linac) accelerating 10 - 20 mA of proton
current to energies between 8 to 10 MeV candeliver neutron
fluxes between 109 –1013 n/cm2/s.A concept for a reliable
proton linear accelerator using a combination of high duty
cycle H-modecavities that can be cooled well and 4-rod RFQs
suitable for cw operation presents a cost efficient,reliable
and well proven linac design for such applications. The
neutron target is based on diffusionbonded beryllium as the
most suitable choice to be operated for such a neutron
source. The linacwill have about 15 m in total length
including the target station and can be installed and
operatedfor reasonable costs. We will present the current
status of such an accelerator-based neutron sourceand
potential perspectives.},
