Upgrade of RILAC injector

  • 1. RIKEN, Wako, Saitama (Japan)

Description

The RIKEN heavy-ion linac (RILAC) has been successfully upgraded by adding a booster linac consisting of six rf-cavities. The maximum beam energy of the RILAC has increased to 5.8 MeV/u, which has made it possible to perform nuclear physics experiments with high-intensity beams in the RILAC facility. The first two cavities of the booster have also upgraded the beam energy of the ring cyclotron (RRC). Heavy ion beams such as krypton are now available at 63 MeV/u after the RRC with an intensity of 100 pnA. Design and rf-characteristics of the booster cavities are presented in this paper. (author)
