DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4274783· OSTI ID:4274783

Progress on various theoretical studies are reported. DC model magnet studies to determine the optimum size and position of correcting holes drilled in the magnet yoke are described The major design criteria for the ring magnet are given. The current in the magnet of the 12.5 Bev proton synchrotron was calculated. The power supply characteristics and operating conditions are described. The side coil assembly phase of the ring magnet ooil program is described. The radiofrequency system consisting of accelerating cavity, rndiofrequency program, noise-measuring systems, power amplifier, and beam inanction electrodes is discussed Detailed studies were made of the BNL Linac design and such modifications were made as are required to meet the specific needs of the ANL injector system. Two methods of fabrication of the ring magnet vacuum chamber are discussed. A preliminary study and desige was made of several vacuum pumpimg systems for the ZGS accelerator. Investigations on the vacuum properties of epaxy plastics, evapor-ion pumps, water flow control, and foundations are reported. (For preceding period see ANL-5564.) (W.D.M.)
