We study the evolution of the longitudinal phase space during acceleration from 0.797-7.3 GeV in the LAMPF II booster. This machine is planned to accelerate 150 ..mu..A of protons using a 60 Hz repetition rate. A multiparticle simulation program was used to model the acceleration with space charge included. The bunch population of 2.5 x 10/sup 11/ protons was represented by 1000 macroparticles. During acceleration the rms longitudinal emittance grows by 3% and two particles are lost out of the separatrix. 2 refs., 11 figs., 1 tab.
