Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 8, 050101 (2005) [10 pages]Design of a nonscaling fixed field alternating gradient accelerator
D. Trbojevic *, E. D. Courant, and M. Blaskiewicz Received 7 February 2005; published 19 May 2005 We present a design of nonscaling fixed field alternating gradient accelerators (FFAG) minimizing the dispersion action function H. The design is considered both analytically and via computer modeling. We present the basic principles of a nonscaling FFAG lattice and discuss optimization strategies so that one can accelerate over a broad range of momentum with reasonable apertures. Acceleration schemes for muons are discussed. ©2005 The American Physical Society
