Low-output-impedance RF system for the second harmonic cavity in the ISIS synchrotron has been developed by the collaboration between Argonne National Laboratory, US, KEK, Japan and Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK. Low output impedance is realized by the feedback from plate output to grid input of the final triode amplifier, resulting in less than 30 Ω over the frequency range of interest. Precise control of the second harmonic voltage can then be realized without considering beam loading effects. Beam test scenario in the ISIS synchrotron is discussed.

The ISIS synchrotron at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK is currently undergoing an RF upgrade. Four, h=4 cavities have been installed in addition to the existing 6, h=2, cavities and should be capable of increasing the operating current from 200 to 300 μA. Two of the four cavities have been in operation for the last 2 user cycles improving trapping lossess and increasing operating currents beyond 200 μA. The remaining two cavities were commissioned in the spring of 2008. This paper reports on hardware commissioning, beam tests and beam simulation results.
