Abstract

A common belief at Fermilab has been that the Booster performed best when the Linac operated at the highest possible beam currents. In order to provide these high currents the Linac has been running at least 50% above the design intensity since shortly after the Linac upgrade in 1993. Early in 2002 it was decided to investigate this dependence to see if the Booster operated more efficiently with a higher Linac current and a low number of turns.
