New developments in the design of fixed-field alternating gradient (FFAG) synchrotrons have sparked interest in their use as rapid-cycling, high intensity accelerators of ions, protons, muons, and electrons. Potential applications include proton drivers for neutron or muon production, rapid muon accelerators, electron accelerators for synchrotron light sources, and medical accelerators of protons and light ions for cancer therapy. Compact RF cavities that tune rapidly over various frequency ranges are needed to provide the acceleration in FFAG lattices. An innovative design of a compact RF cavity that uses orthogonally biased ferrite for fast frequency tuning and liquid dielectric to adjust the frequency range is being developed using physical prototypes and computer models.
