چکیده
The CERN baseline scenario for a Neutrino Factory comprises accumulation and compression of the beam delivered by a 2.2 GeV kinetic energy H− linac, to provide the time structure needed on the target. Originally, accumulation and bunch compression in one single ring was envisaged. To limit the RF voltage necessary for bunch rotation, quasi-isochronous lattices were studied. The low transition energy together with the long circumference, either leads to large dispersion or necessitates the addition of bending magnets with negative deflection angle. Several solutions for quasi-isochronous lattices were investigated. Finally, the quasi-isochronous lattices were abandoned, and a solution has been chosen with two separate rings, one for accumulation and the other for bunch-compression, and conventional lattices working far below transition. 20th ICFA Advanced Beam Dynamics Workshop, High Intensity High Brightness Hadron Beams, Fermilab April 8 12, 2002

EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH PS/AE Note 2001–001 CERN-NUFACT Note 061 Transfer Line Between the Proton Driver Accumulator and Compressor Rings for the CERN Neutrino Factory
This note presents a possible design for the transfer line between the proton driver accumulator and compressor rings of the CERN Neutrino Factory. Based on the layout of the two rings presented in Ref. [1], a possible configuration for the transfer line is studied. The geometry and the optics of such a transport system are discussed in details.

The proton driver for a neutrino factory must provide megawatts of beam power at a few GeV, with nanosecond long bunches each containing more than 1×1012 protons. Such beam powers are within reach of a high-energy linac, but the required time structure cannot be provided without accumulation and compression. The option of a linac-based 2.2 GeV proton driver has been studied at CERN, taking into...

There is a strong interest from the physics community for high-quality, high-intensity neutrino beams as produced by a neutrino factory. With the help of other European laboratories, CERN has started a study on some of the many technological challenges of such a facility. Present ideas concerning the proton driver, as well as the muon accelerator complex, are presented and plans for the future ...

In view of a possible evolution of the CERN accelerator complex towards higher proton intensities, a 2.2 GeV H linac with 4 MW beam power has been designed, for use in connection with an accumulator and compressor ring as proton driver of a muon-based Neutrino Factory. The high-energy part of this linac can use most of the RF equipment (superconducting cavities and klystrons) from the LEP colli...

One of the key component of the Neutrino Factory under study at CERN is the muon cooling channel based on ionization cooling. To explore the parameter-space and the efficiency of the design proposed at CERN, a muon cooling experiment.
