The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) is home to ISIS, the world's most productive spallation neutron source. ISIS has two neutron producing target stations (TS-1 and TS-2), operated at 40 Hz and 10 Hz respectively with a 50 Hz, 800 MeV proton beam from a rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS), which is fed by a 70 MeV H− drift tube linac. The multi-turn charge-exchange injection process used on ISIS has been the subject of a programme of detailed studies in recent years including benchmarked simulations and experiments. More recently, these studies have been expanded as plans for upgrading ISIS have focussed on replacement of the 70 MeV linac with a new, higher energy injector and a new synchrotron injection straight. Whilst much of these studies have been reported elsewhere, this paper presents a summary of the programme with some further details.
