Conversion of the BNL 200 MeV Linac to H sup - and Polarized H sup - Acceleration

摘要

Planning for the conversion of the AGS Linac to H sup - acceleration was begun in 1979; installation was completed in 1983. Discussion of this work and of the operational experience will be presented. The AGS Polarized Beam Project was begun in 1980. The design of the new H sup - polarized source, the low Energy Beam Transport line (LEBT), and Radio-Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) will be described. Current status and future plans will be presented. 14 references, 5 figures. (ERA citation 09:031502)
