Dual aperture dipole with 2nd harmonic

Two rapid-cycling accelerator rings are arranged in one magnet-iron structure. There are two sets of coils, one located in each ring, which are connected in series and excited with a first harmonic frequency. One dc bias coil and one second harmonic coil are common to both rings. The second harmonic reduces B during acceleration by 33% as compared to single frequency operation. The features of this economical arrangement are described and compared to more conventional systems. This system is especially suitable for combined function magnets.
