THPEC090 | The EMMA Non-scaling FFAG | 4266 |
|
||
The Electron Model for Many Applications (EMMA) will be the World's first non-scaling FFAG and is under construction at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. Construction is due for completion in March 2010 and will be followed by commissioning with beam and a detailed experimental programme to study the functioning of this type of accelerator. This paper will give an overview of the motivation for the project and describe the EMMA design and hardware. The first results from commissioning will be presented in a separate paper. |

THPD022 | FFAG Tracking with Cyclotron Codes | 4319 |
|
||
This paper describes tracking studies of non-scaling (NS) FFAGs using cyclotron codes in place of the more conventional lumped-element synchrotron codes. The equilibrium orbit code CYCLOPS determines orbits, tunes and period at fixed energies, while the general orbit code GOBLIN tracks a representative bunch of particles through the acceleration process. Results will be presented for the EMMA linear NS-FFAG under construction at Daresbury (10-20 MeV electrons), and for two non-linear NS-FFAG designs: Rees's isochronous IFFAG (8-20 GeV muons) and Johnstone's design for ADSR (250-1000 MeV protons). Our results are compared with those obtained using lumped-element codes. In the case of EMMA, results are presented for both the measured and design fields. |
