Gardner, W. Zhang, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY Abstract The present AGS injection kickers at A5 location were designed for 1.5 GeV proton injection. Recent high intensity runs have pushed the transfer kinetic energy to 1.94 GeV, but with an imperfect matching in transverse phase space. Space charge forces result in both fast and slow beam size growth and beam loss as the size exceeds the AGS aperture. A proposed increase in the AGS injection energy to 2 GeV with adequate kick strength would greatly reduce the beam losses making it possible increase the intensity from 70 TP (70*10 protons/s) to 100 TP. R&D studies are being undertaken by TRIUMF, in collaboration with BNL, to design two new kicker magnets for the AGS A10 location which will provide an additional deflection of 1.5 mrad for 2 GeV protons. TRIUMF has proposed a design for a 12.5 Ω transmission line kicker magnet with rise and fall times of 100 ns, 3% to 97%, and kick strength uniformity for protons of ±3% over 90% of the aperture, powered by matched 12.5 Ω pulse-forming lines. This paper describes the present status of a prototype design including the results of detailed 2D and 3D electromagnetic modelling of a transmission line kicker magnet and PSpice time domain analysis of the magnetic kick strength.

Spear 3 Injection Kicker
The design of the SPEAR 3 injection kicker system is presented. This system will include three kicker magnets and their associated pulsers. The magnet design is based on the DELTA kicker magnets, which present a low RF impedance to the beam, and are relatively straightforward to construct. The pulsers use cascaded IGBT stages that are based on the modulator pulsers developed by a SLAC/LLNL coll...

We consider the dynamics of muons injected into the g-2 ring now under construction at FERMILAB. We present the concept for the pulsed injection kicker magnet that optimizes capture efficiency and minimizes coherent betatron oscillations of stored muons. Some engineering details of the high voltage kicker and pulser are presented.

The RHIC injection kicker is a pulsed transmission line kicker, consisting of 15 ferrite sections and 14 ceramic sections. The length of the kicker is 1.1 m and there are 4 such units in each ring. Figure 1 shows the kicker cross section with the outer conductor, C-shaped ferrite, inner conductor and the ceramic beam pipe [1]. The design characteristic impedance of the transmission line kicker ...

The required kicker field strengths are 283 Gauss for injection and 435 Gauss for extraction. In the original design, three kickers had identical circuit configurations in order to reduce the amount of design work and the number of spare parts. However, during initial test it was found that it was the best to tune the kickers differently based upon their main function, i.e., beam injection or b...
