DESIGN STUDY FOR A 300-1000 BEV ACCELERATOR

OSTI ID:4837314

Design considerations for an alternating-gradient synchrotron-type (AGS- type) accelerator for energies of 300 to 1000 Bev are presented. Energies chosen for specific study are 400, 700, and 1000 Bev. The accelerator diameter may vary up to 6 km, and the output is on the order of 1O/sup 13//sec. Attention is given to paiticle dynamics, machine parameters, injection, acceleration, magnets, vacuum systems, instrumentation and control systems, buildings and sites, and economic considerations. In addition, a system is studied in which an AGS is used to inject particles at 400 to 1700 Mev into a FFAG accelerator that utilizes a superconducting 100-kgauss magnet. (T.F.H.)
