ABSTRACT Both Neutrino Factories (NF) and Muon Colliders (MC) require very rapid acceleration due to the short lifetime of muons. After a capture and bunching section, a linac raises the energy to about 900 MeV, and is followed by one or more Recirculating Linear Accelerators (RLA), possibly followed by a Rapid Cycling Synchnotron (RCS) or Fixed-Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) ring. A RLA reuses the expensive RF linac section for a number of passes at the price of having to deal with different energies within the same linac. Various techniques including pulsed focusing quadruopoles, beta frequency beating, and multipass arcs have been investigated via simulations to improve the performance and reduce the cost of such RLAs. FUTURE PLANS The neutrino factory baseline is being redesigned in light of recent experimental results; it is anticipated that only ~10 GeV is required, so the prelinac and RLAs will need be reoptimized and will feed a decay ring directly. PRELINAC TO RLA CHICANEThe current chicane separates the μ± with a dipole, then each is directed down 1.75m into the plane of RLA I, then directed by dipoles into the middle of the linac. On subsequent passes, the injection dipole separates the returning μ±, so a mini-chicane in the linac is used to correct the paths. INTERNATIONAL DESIGN STUDY The International Design Study for the Neutrino Factory (IDS-NF) baseline designinvolves a complex chain of accelerators including a single-pass prelinac, two recirculating linacs (RLA) and a fixed field alternating gradient accelerator (FFAG).[1] prelinac RLA I MULTIPASS ARCS By combining two arcs into one multipass arc, it is possible to greatly simplify the RLA by eliminating one arc’s chicanes and most of the switchyard. RLA II (arcs not shown) Beta functions in RLA I arcs 1 & 3 The arc’s cells are constructed of linear combined-functions magnets with variable dipole and quadrupolefield components. Unlike a fixed field alternating gradient design, opposing bends are not required. While pulsed quadrupoles could allow as many as 7 ½ passes, they aren’t needed for 4 ½ passes.
