DESIGN OF 4.5 MEV RFQ FOR PROTONS /H - IONS

Shivaji Pande, M. Prasad

Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

It is proposed to construct a Spallation Neutron Source based on a 1 GeV proton synchrotron at CAT. A 100 MeV linac will inject the 20 mA H - ion beam into this synchrotron. The linac in turn is injected by a 4.5 MeV RFQ. This injector linac will additionally form the first 100 MeV part of a 1 GeV super conducting linac to be built in future for Accelerator Driven Sub-critical System (ADSS) applications. Therefore both, the RFQ and the linac are required to be capable of operating at very high duty factors and/or in CW mode. In this paper we describe the results of our beam dynamics and RFQ cavity optimization studies for the 4.5 MeV RFQ.
