Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) (1)
Increasing the repetition rate to 10~60Hz, it is possible to obtain much higher proton intensity. This type is called as a “rapid cycling synchrotron,” but it requires special design consideration including its power supply.
Magnet: AC magnet made of laminated steel plates and requires design study using 2D or 3D field simulation code.
Power supply: Resonant circuit to provide with sinusoidal current under the operation of the basing DC power supply.
Operation: Combined function is easy. Separated function requires a precise tracking between Bending and Focusing fields.

Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (2)
• Resonance Condition: Loads including magnets, capacitor and choke transformer are in resonance condition.
• Energy exchanged between magnets and capacitors, while the pulse power supply provides the losses.
• Utilize Full AC Field Swing: superpose DC field to AC field to have Injection at bottom AC field.
Choke Transformer is introduced to decouple the pulse power supply.• Reduce magnet voltage: adopt multi-mesh circuit.

Advantage/Disadvantage of RCS7)
1) Neutron yield is proportional to beam power (Eb x Ib). Trade off between repetition rate, beam current and beam energy. RCS achieves high power at low repetition rate at reasonable cost compared to linac/compressor scenario.
2) RCS requires high power RF cavity
3) Care for Eddy current due to rapid change of Magnetic field
4) Space charge limit at low energy injection, so the peak current in RCS is several times smaller
5) Longer beam-in-ring time (10 to 20ms) compared to linac/compressor ring (1 to 2s) will have a greater risk of instabilities associated with large number of cavities.

Reducing RCS-RF power by Dual-frequency mode Excitation
For the case of IPNS upgrade study to 1 MW at ANL,
Single mode;
2 GeV, 0.5 mA, 30 Hz RCS requires 180 kV RF voltage.
Dual mode;
