An upgraded version of the RHIC 91 insertion design is prop0se.d that addresses many of the recommendations made at the August, 1991 Lattice Review Committee'. The RHIC 92 lattice retains the anti-symmetric quadrupole arrangement in the interactive regions (IR), the long contiguous drift spaces and the same arcs of the RHIC 91 lattice. The quadrupole triplet and crossing dipoles have been modified in order that the D0(BC2) dipole can have a 10 cm aperture, giving a potential increase in the dynamic aperture. l?urthermore, an intuitive approach was used to deal separately with the twiss functions (i.e., αx, αy, βx and βy) and the dispersion (i.e.,ηx and η'x). The new lattice has a larger tuning range in β* than RHIC 91. Additionally, the lattice has been tuned to 7 different operating points (as of this writing).
