  Design study of high energy proton FFAG accelerator has been carried out at Kyoto University Research Reactor for the next generation ADSR experiment where the proton beam energy covers up to 700 MeV. The scaling type of FFAG with spiral sectors was employed. Details of the design, especially on the operational working points and dynamic apertures are described in this paper. Also, some possibility to apply this design to hadron therapy accelerators is presented.

  The first results from commissioning EMMA - the Electron Model of Many Applications- are summarised in this paper. EMMA is a 10 to 20 MeV electron ring designed to test our understanding of beam dynamics in a relativistic linear non-scaling fixed field alternating gradient accelerator (FFAG). EMMA will be the world's first non-scaling FFAG and the paper will outline the characteristics of the beam injected in to the accelerator as well as summarising the results of the 4 sector 'gantry-type' commissioning which took place at Daresbury Laboratory. The paper will report on recent progress made with the full EMMA ring commissioning, giving details of tune and orbit measurements as well as their correction to the desired lattice.

  This paper describes the use of cyclotron codes to study the beam dynamics of both high-energy isochronous cyclotrons using AG focusing and non-scaling (NS) FFAGs. The equilibrium orbit code CYCLOPS determines orbits, tunes and period at fixed energies, while the general orbit code GOBLIN tracks a representative bunch of particles through the acceleration process. The results for radial-sector cyclotrons show that the use of negative valley fields allows axial focusing to be maintained, and hence intense cw beams to be accelerated, to energies ≈10 GeV. The results for FFAGs confirm those obtained with lumped-element codes, and suggest that cyclotron codes will prove to be important tools for evaluating the measured fields of FFAG magnets.
