  Before approaching the micro-loss monitor concept, we propose to present the high intensity Linac for which the R&D program was done, LIPAc (Linear IFIMIF Prototype Accelerator). This later is the feasibility accelerator demonstrator for the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF). IFMIF aims at providing a very intense neutron source (1018 neutron/m2/s) to test materials for the future fusion reactors, beyond ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor). LIPAc (1.125 MW deuteron beam) is in installation progress at Rokkasho (Japan). Then, we will focus on the feasibility study of the beam optimization inside the SRF Linac part. Commissioning of such high beam intensity has to be done with a different approach based on detection of micro-losses, CVD diamonds, set inside the cryomodule linac.
