Status of the ISAC post-accelerator design study
- TRIUMF, Vancouver, British Columbia (Canada)
Preparation of a proposal for the installation of a radioactive beam ISOL facility (ISAC) with a post-accelerator is in progress at TRIUMF. The accelerator specifications call for acceleration of ions with charge to mass ratios greater than 1/60, to energies up to 1.5 MeV/u, in one beamline, and up to 10 MeV/u in a second beamline. The current accelerator concept is a three stage linac with strippers to increase the ion q/A, between stages. The first stage is a RFQ, while the second and third stages are a series of independently driven superconducting quarter-wave resonators, similar to those used for the ATLAS accelerator at ANL, and the post tandem booster at JAERI. Preliminary results of beam dynamics calculations for this accelerator configuration are given.
