The proposed design of the Rare Isotope Accelerator (RIA) driver linac is based on cw fully superconducting 1.4 GV linac capable to accelerate uranium ions up to 400 MeV/u and protons to 1 GeV with 400 kW beam power. Extensive research and development effort has resolved many technical issues related to the construction of the driver linac and other systems of the RIA facility. Particularly, newly developed high-performance SC cavities will provide the required voltage for the driver linac using 300 cavities designed for six different geometrical betas. We are currently looking at alternatives for staging the facility to reduce the initial cost by about a factor of two. A possibility for the first stage includes ~850 MV driver linac to deliver uranium beams at 200 MeV/u and protons at 550 MeV. Thanks to successful tests of the front end systems, 400 kW beams can be obtained with increased intensities of heavy-ion beams from the ECR and higher rf power in the linac even at the first stage of the facility.

We discuss design of a pulsed linac based on 430 independently phased superconducting resonators for acceleration of 40 mA peak current H-minus beam up to 8-GeV. Most of the voltage gain (from ~410 MeV to 8 GeV) is provided by ILC cavities and squeezed ILC-style cavities operating at 1300 MHz. Significant cost savings are expected from the use of an rf power fan out from high-power klystrons to multiple cavities. The front end of the linac operating at 325 MHz will be based on multiple-spoke cavities. A room temperature section comprised of a conventional RFQ and 16 short normal conducting H-type resonators is proposed for the initial acceleration of an H-minus or proton beam up to 10 MeV. We have developed an accelerator lattice which satisfies the beam physics and engineering specifications.
