One of the most expensive components of proposals to accelerate heavy radioactive beams is the superconducting linac. This is an attempt to design a non-scaling Fixed-Field Alternating-Gradient (FFAG) lattice to allow acceleration of heavy radioactive beams in a short time period with an acceptance in momentum of ±50%. As it had been previously reported the non-scaling FFAG has very small orbit offsets, very strong focusing, and large momentum acceptance. The lattice with small combined function magnets would provide substantial savings in the cost of the RF.
