Neutrino factory and FFAG

Neutrino factory and FFAG (1)Schematic view
• Neutrino Factory requires 20 to 50 GeV muon beam.– Muon accelerators are the most costly part of the machine complex.– FFAG is considered as the most cost effective option.

• International Scoping Study has been completed last year.
• International Design Study has started.

Neutrino factory and FFAG (2) FFAG in one word
• FFAG is a Fixed Field Alternating Gradient accelerator.– It separates the guiding field from the accel
eration process. No synchronization.– Quick acceleration is possible. The rate onl
y depends on voltage.
• Nonscaling FFAG looks like a “storage ring”.– Lattice with ordinary dipoles and quadrupol
es.– Dispersion function is small enough to give
large momentum acceptance. – Orbit shift from injection to extraction is sma
ll.

Neutrino factory and FFAG (3) nonscaling and scaling
• Constant gradient magnets give a focusing force inversely proportional to particle momentum.
• With acceleration, the machine
‘tune’ decreases.

• Field nonlinearities can make
the tune constant.

Neutrino factory and FFAG (4) why nonscaling for muons?
• Magnets of a nonscaling FFAG are expected to be– smaller because of smaller orbit shift,– simpler because no nonlinearities.
• However, the machine tune changes a lot during acceleration.– Revolution frequency depends on the t
ransverse amplitude.– Crossing of ‘resonance’ becomes a co
ncern.

EMMA overview
17
EMMA overview (1) aims
• EMMA will be a Proof of Principle nonscaling FFAG.– Electron Model of Muon Acceleration
or Electron Model of Many Applications
• Demonstrate that a nonscaling FFAG works as expected.– Examine quick acceleration and large acceptance.– Study acceleration outside bucket in detail.– Study “resonance” crossing in detail.
PoP scaling FFAG (2000): The world’s first proton FFAG with MA rf cavity.
EMMA is a nonscaling counterpart.
18
EMMA overview (2) difficulties in demonstrating a nonscaling FFAG
• Nonscaling FFAG is for a high energy muon accelerator.– A beam is supposed to be already relativistic at injection.– Electron beam of 10 MeV (=20) is needed.
• Beam dynamics rely on a high periodicity lattice.– Muon ring has 84 periods.– Electron model should have the same order of periodicity.
• Beams stay in the ring for only 10 to 20 turns.– Diagnostics for single path measurements.– Inject a beam with full momentum range to scan.
19
EMMA overview (3) injector
• Energy Recovery Linac Prototype at Daresbury Laboratory provides:– Variable injection momentum from 10 to 20 MeV.– Small emittance to scan FFAG phase space.– Sufficient intensity in a bunch for single path diagnostics.

Summary
21
• We have identified beam dynamics issues in a nonscaling FFAG for muon acceleration in a neutrino factory.
• Large transverse amplitude particles suffer phase slip.– This can be mitigated by chromaticity correction.
• Random walk is the correct way to understand orbit and optics distortion in a muon ring.– However, resonance behavior starts appearing when the acceleratio
n rate is 5 times slower.
• EMMA will be the world first nonscaling FFAG.

Beam dynamics study
24
Beam dynamics study (1) “resonance” crossing
• Integers and half-integers total tune are crossed.– If not much errors, they should not
be any problem.
• Cell tune is between 0 and 0.5.
• Cell tune of 1/3 and 1/4 are crossed.– If nonlinearities are not significant,
they should not be any problem.

Beam dynamics study (2) “resonance” crossing
• Single particle trajectory does not show any “resonance” behavior.
• Rms orbit deviation over many different lattices shows almost square root growth.– Implies random kicks cause orbit d
istortion, not by resonances.

Beam dynamics study (3) outside bucket acceleration
• Time of flight is a function of transverse amplitude as well as momentum.
• Large amplitude particles have too much phase slip to be accelerated to the maximum energy.

Beam dynamics study (4) outside bucket acceleration
• As a whole beam, longitudinal emittance blows up and momentum spread increases when the transverse amplitude is included.
• Chromaticity correction cures the problem (S. Berg, Nucl. Inst
rum. Methods, 2006), but it reduces aperture.

Conclusions
32
• Amplification factor is 100~150. Growth factor is 250.– Practically important to determine magnet aperture.
• Orbit and optics distortion can be rather explained by random kick (walk) model, not by ‘resonance’ crossing.– One of EMMA goals: “See effects of resonance crossing” -> “See
effects of machine errors”
• If we make the acceleration speed slower, 5 times or 85 turns for example, resonance behavior appears in addition to random kicks. That is the mixed regime of resonance and random kicks.
