Beam dynamics for the 1 GeV proton linac for ADS

  • 1. Nuclear Physics Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai (India)

Description

The linac for an Accelerator Driven System (ADS) is required to deliver a 1 GeV proton beam at tens of milli amperes of current. The main design criterion for such a linac is low beam loss in the accelerator to allow hands-on-maintenance of the entire linac. With this criteria, the beam dynamics simulations for a 1 GeV, 30 mA proton linac has been done, the details of which are presented in this paper. The linac consists of normal-conducting Radio-Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ), Drift Tube Linac (DTL) and Coupled Cavity Drift Tube Linac (CCDTL) structures that accelerate the beam to about 100 MeV followed by Superconducting (SC) elliptical cavities, which accelerate the beam from 100 MeV to 1 GeV.
