Acceleration of RIB using linacs

Moriond Meeting 17-21/3/2003

Page 2: | ppt |

Ideal RIB accelerator requirements

• Acceleration of all possible radioactive beams

• All possible final energies up to ~ 100 MeV/u, finely tuneable

• Capability of acceleration of singly charged ions

• Very good beam quality up to at least 10 MeV/u

• Affordable construction and operation cost

• reliability, easy maintenance, easy beam set-up and operation, etc.

Moriond Meeting 17-21/3/2003

Page 3: | ppt |

RIB accelerators special constraints

• Variable q/A beams

– Efficiency in a wide range of q/A

– Wide acceptance in : acceleration with variable velocity profiles is

desirable

• Very low current beams

– negligible beam loading: Rf power efficiency

– Stability and large acceptance

– Very high transmission efficiency, aiming to 100%

Moriond Meeting 17-21/3/2003

Independently-phased Superconducting Cavity Linacs virtues

•Wide velocity and q/A acceptance

•Modularity: all final energies can be reached, with fine tunability

•Excellent beam quality

•Transmission efficiency limited only by charge selection after stripping

Recent achievements in the field:

Multicharge beam transport

High acceleration gradient

high transmission efficiency after stripping

Competitive construction and operation cost

SRL simulations results for different modes of operation

1. No stripping (prob. most experiments)• E max 60 MeV/u • Transmission 100% Single charge beam• x y 0.5(0.25) mm mrad, z 0.7 keV/u ns (5 rms)

2. Stripper 2 only• E max 93 MeV/u • transmission 94% Multiple charge beam• x y 0.6(0.3) mm mrad, z 1.4 keV/u ns (5 rms)

3. Strippers 1 and 2• E max 100 MeV/u• Transmission 74% Multiple charge beam• x y 1(0.5) mm mrad, z 10(2) keV/u ns (5 rms)

N.B: 2 Strippers make the linac relatively insensitive to the charge breeder performance: with initial charge of 13+ instead of 25+, the final energy would be 95 MeV/u

Acceleration of different q/A beamswith 2-gap cavities

Page 33: | ppt |

• Recent developments in SC linac technologymultiple charge beam transport beam stripping and high transmission

Superconducting cavites high gradients, wide acceptance

• High charge breeding is not strictly necessary – (but some charge breeding saves a lot of money)

• SC linacs can provide– RIB acceleration with finely tuneable energy and good beam quality

– High acceleration and transmission efficiency

– Large acceptance in q/A low mass selectivity, but also

low sensitivity to charge breeder performance

– flexibility in the modes of operation

– competitive construction and operation cost

SC linacs can be excellent RIB accelerators
