The Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) has five synchrotron systems: three booster synchrotrons plus two main synchrotron rings which make up the collider. The three booster synchrotron RF systems will utilize a multiplicity of high-power VHF, 150 KW tetrode amplifiers, whereas the collider RF systems will utilize four 360 MHz, 1-MW cw klystrons. The RF systems include DC power supplies, local control and monitoring systems, and accelerating cavities as well as RF amplifier systems. The system requirements and the conceptual designs for the RF systems for the five SSC synchrotrons are presented. The status of the Low Energy Booster synchrotron accelerating cavity and tuner assembly development programs are specifically addressed. Opportunities for industry to participate in the design and manufacture of RF subsystems and/or major components are also identified and briefly discussed.
