• Upgrade routes for ISIS are summarised in the table above. All designs are to be developed primarily for an optimised neutron facility, and should provide provision of an appropriate proton beam to the newly built TS-2. The list here is not exhaustive, but presents the main, reasonable routes that would provide a major boost in beam power. Primary considerations are the cost relative to a new facility and the impact on ISIS operations.

Linac Upgrade

• Replaces oldest and probably most vulnerable part of ISIS accelerators• Increased energy (up to 180 MeV) gives increased intensity in synchrotron and more beam to target• Similar designs are already available e.g. CERN Linac4, J-PARC• Would require a new building and reconfiguration of the TS-1 neutron and muon targets

180 MeV Injection(Steve Jago, Stuart Birch, Adrian McFarland)

• HEDS Line - DC Dipoles and Quadrupoles• Vertical “Sweeper” - Pulsed Dipole• Injection Septum - High Current DC Dipole• Injection Dipoles - 4 Pulsed Dipoles - Closed Orbit Bump• Stripping Foil

- Beam rigidity- Aperture

- Beam rigidity- Increased field/current/voltage- Stripping efficiency- Lifetime

180 - 800 MeV Acceleration

(Chris Prior)

• Initial calculations (done in 2003) show that 180 MeV injected beam should be cleanly accelerated to 800 MeV in the ISIS ring at intensity levels giving 0.5 MW on target• There should already be enough RF acceleration available in the ISIS ring to accommodate this (calculations were better optimised for fundamental only rather than dual harmonic acceleration)• Did not include transverse effects• Requires beam chopping

Page 10: ISIS Upgrade Options ISIS Accelerator Division John Thomason.

• Based on a ~ 3 GeV RCS fed by bucket-to-bucket transfer from ISIS 800 MeV synchrotron (1MW)

• RCS design also accommodates multi-turn charge exchange injection to facilitate a further upgrade path where the RCS is fed directly from a 800 MeV linac (2 – 5 MW)
