  6. D F F S S g g Rule #2 for the FFAG Design EmployFDF triplet arrangement, since this, as it was well known from the lattice studies of electron storage rings for the production of synchrotron radiation, yields a considerable lower dispersion when compared to the DFD arrangement, and thus a more compact momentum spread and smaller magnet width.

  7. Rule #3 for the FFAG Design •Linearized Equations of Motion • Introduce the field index n(x) = G(x) / h B0 x + h2 (1 + n) x / (1 + ) = h  / (1 + ) y – h2 n y / (1 + ) = 0 • Consider the general case where the field index is a nonlinear function of both x and s, namely n = n(x, s). At any location s, for each momentum value  there is one unique solution x = x(, s) and by inversion is a function of x and s, namely =(x, s). • We pose the following problem: Determine the field distribution, namely n = n(x, s), that compensates the momentum dependence of (1 + ) at the denominator: n(x, s) = n0 [1 + (x, s)] --> G(x, s) = G0 [1 + (x, s)] <--- where n0 is related to the gradient G0 = n0 h B0 on the reference trajectory. • Then the equations of motion reduce to x + h2 x / (1 + ) + h2 n0 x = h  / (1 + ) --> x = x(, s) --> = (x, s) y – h2 n0 y = 0 Alessandro G.

H– Stripping Foil Target 200-MeV DTL 1.0-GeV FFAG AC Power Sub-critical Fissionable material Experimental Areas: Spallation Neutrons Waste Transmutation Tritium Production Radio-Isothops Production Exotic Elements Production, ….. Conclusions FFAG Proton Accelerators are a very promising alternative to other Accelerator Architectures (Super-Conducting Linacs, Cyclotrons, Rapid Cycling Synchrotrons), especially in view of the recent progress in beam dynamics and of new proposed design approaches. FFAG’s rely on conventional Magnet Technology, thus appealing to many centers of research. They are supposed to be less expensive: a crude estimate of the Proton Driver described here shows a cost of about 50M$ (excluding DTL and Tunnels). In the case of Protons, the Path Length variation with Momentum is not a concern if there is at any time only a single beam pulse circulating. A 10 MWatt beam power requires a AC source of about 40-50 MWatt. It is then imperative to demonstrate methods to create energy with the use of sub-critical nuclear material. The next step is to resolve the 2 main Issues Alessandro G. Ruggiero FFAG'04 Workshop
