  Recent developments in the design of non-scaling fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG) accelerators have been focused on achieving isochronous behavior with a small betatron tune excursion. These advances are particularly interesting for applications requiring CW beams, such as Accelerator Driven Systems for energy generation or waste transmutation. The latest advances in lattice design have resulted in a 330 MeV to 1 GeV lattice, isochronous to better than ± 1 percent. This paper reports on simulations of recent lattice designs incorporating 3D space charge effects.
