A possible new design of the SSC boosters

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7019787
A new design for the lattices of the SSC's three injectors is presented and compared with the CDR. The complex is matched so that the SSC filling factor is 94%, and is designed so that there is no transition crossing at any point. In general, the dispersion function is substantially reduced relative to the CDR design, and it is made to vanish in the straight sections. We also present tracking results which include the effect of the space-charge force, chromatic sextupoles, synchrotron oscillations, and the expected random and systematic dipole magnet errors. We conclude that the CDR magnet design allows adequate dynamic aperture for all three boosters, and that the space-charge force in the LEB has no significant detrimental effect provided the LEB is tuned properly. 15 refs., 25 figs., 5 tabs.
