OSTI ID:5704848
Three years ago a program was initiated at Brookhaven National Laboratory to upgrade the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) vacuum system. The three objectives of this work were to: (1) improve the vacuum system reliability; (2) improve its maintainability; and (3) improve its operating pressure from the present 2-3 /times/ 10/sup /minus/7/ Torr to < 10/sup /minus/8/ Torr. This paper discusses how these objectives can be met. 9 refs., 8 figs., 1 tab.
