This requires limiting the beam emittance out of the Booster synchrotron which is achieved by operating the Booster off-momentum, thus manipulating the damping partitions. However, the much higher charge for the APS-U strongly favors injecting on momentum into the Booster for maximum acceptance. An rf-frequency ramping scheme is proposed to allow injecting on momentum and then moving the beam off momentum. The ramp is adjusted from cycle to cycle to vary the total time taken by the beam from injection to extraction, thus aligning the Booster bunch with any chosen MBA storage ring bucket. The two rf systems will not be locked at any time of the cycle. The proposed scheme is compatible with the existing synchronization of the APS injector cycle to the 60-Hz line voltage which induces a variation in the start time of the acceleration cycle. The scheme removes the need to realign the Booster ring for total path length while optimizing its operation for high charge acceleration. A ferrite tuner is being considered for dynamic tuning of the rf cavities.
