BEAM 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 method is discussed using beam dynamics simulations. Beam experiments in the Fermilab Recycler Ring convincingly validate the concept. Preliminary experiments in the Fermilab Main Injector to investigate its potential for merging two “booster batches” to produce high intensity proton beams for neutrino and antiproton production are described.
