It may become necessary to enhance the luminosity and increase the bunch spacing in the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC). Here we study the feasibility of bunch coalescing to achieve this. We choose the Medium Energy Booster (MEB) at extraction, momentum 200GeV, to perform the operation. In order to properly align the bunches we propose to linearize the RF using the second and third harmonics. Theoretical studies with simulation are presented. The program ESME is used for the simulation.
