Barrier RF Stacking
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel wideband RF system, nicknamed the barrier RF, has been designed, fabricated and installed in the Fermilab Main Injector. The cavity is made of seven Finemet cores, and the modulator made of two bipolar high-voltage fast solid-state switches. The system can deliver ±7 kV square pulses at 90 kHz. The main application is to stack two proton batches injected from the Booster and squeeze them into the size of one so that the bunch intensity can be doubled. High intensity beams have been successfully stacked and accelerated to 120 GeV with small losses. The problem of large longitudinal emittance growth is the focus of the present study. An upgraded system with two barrier RF cavities for continuous stacking is under construction. This work is part of the US-Japan collaborative agreement.

Experimental Investigation of Longitudinal Stacking Schemes in the ESR
Fast longitudinal stacking of RIBs is foreseen in the NESR [1] in order to reach the high intensities required by internal experiments. The stacking is supported by electron cooling. Two schemes were investigated by dedicated beam dynamics simulations. The first uses a broadband Barrier Bucket (BB) rf system, the second makes use of multiple injections on the unstable fixed point of a sinusoida...
متن کاملBeam Manipulation and Compression Using Broadband Rf Systems in the Fermilab Main Injector and Recycler
A novel method for beam manipulation, compression, and stacking using a broad band RF system in circular accelerators is described. The method uses a series of linear voltage ramps in combination with moving barrier pulses to azimuthally compress, expand, or cog the beam. Beam manipulations can be accomplished rapidly and, in principle, without emittance growth. The general principle of the met...
متن کاملElectronic driving force for stacking fault expansion in 4H-SiC
Trapping of electrons in stacking fault SF interface states may lower the energy of a SF more than it costs to form the SF. This “electronic stress” driving force for SF expansion is evaluated for single and double stacking faults in 4H-SiC in terms of a two-dimensional free-electron density of states model based on first-principles calculations. In contrast with previous work, which claimed th...
متن کاملLongitudinal Accumulation of Rare Isotope Beams in the NESR
A high intensity of rare isotope beams is required by the internal experiments in the NESR [1] and in particular by the electron-ion collider mode [2]. It is therefore planned to stack the RIBs longitudinally at injection energy i.e. in the range 100-740 MeV/u. The stacking will be supported by electron cooling. The favored method of longitudinal beam accumulation is based on a barrier bucket R...
