	TRIUMF, in collaboration with university partners, proposes to construct a megawatt-class electron linear accelerator (e-linac) as a driver for U(gamma,f) of actinide targets with rates up to 1013 - 1014 fissions/sec and for (gamma,p)8Li for materials science. The particular emphasis would be on neutron-rich species. The 50 MeV, 10 mA, c.w. linac is based on super-conducting radio-frequency (SRF) technology at 1.3 GHz. Though high power/current electron linacs are a mature technology proposed elsewhere for applications ranging from 4th generation light-sources to TeV-scale linear colliders, TRIUMF is in the vanguard for applying this technology to the copious production of isotopes for studies of (i) nuclear structure and astrophysics; and (ii) beta-NMR for materials science.

	EMMA is an electron machine to study beam dynamics in a linear nonscaling FFAG. We wish to verify that the behavior predicted by the theory and simulation is correct. In particular, we will study, with large emittance beams, a novel accelerating mode outside an rf bucket, and the effects of crossing "resonances." In EMMA, some collective effects become a concern even though the beam stays in the ring for only 10 to 20 turns. We report studies of direct and image space charge, beam loading, and other collective effects with a tracking simulation. Space charge effects, already potentially significant in EMMA, are enhanced by the fact that the beam passes through the beam pipe off-center. There is some possibility of a negative mass instability for some operation modes. We will show several 3D simulation results for space charge and beam loading effects and pure longitudinal simulation for the negative mass instability.

	TRIUMF, in collaboration with university partners, proposes to construct a megawatt-class electron linear accelerator (linac) as a photo-fission driver for radioactive ion beam production (RIB) for nuclear astrophysics studies and materials science. The design strategy, including upgrade path, for this cost-effective facility is elaborated. The 50 MeV, 10 mA, c.w. linac is based on TESLA/ILC super-conducting radio-frequency (SRF) technology at 1.3 GHz and 2K; and consists of an electron gun, buncher and capture sections, followed by 10 MeV and 40 MeV cryomodules containing one and four 9-cell cavities, respectively. Preliminary results from PARMELA beam dynamics simulations are presented. C. W. operation leads to challenges of large cryogenic heat load, input coupler power handling and beam loss mitigation similar to those encountered in ERL-based light sources. Unlike those sources there is no need for high beam brilliance, and a triode thermionic gun modulated at 1.3 GHz is employed; nor are short bunches required, and so the HOM excitation is modest. Many of the major sub-system components have been identified and where possible existing designs will be adopted.
THPP115	The Proposed ISAC-III Upgrade at TRIUMF	3635

	Presently, the ISAC facility produces radioactive ions by a single driver beam of up to 100microA of 500MeV protons (50kW) impinging on either of two production targets which are configured such that only one radioactive ion beam (RIB) is available for use at any one time; and the experimental hours are shared between several facilities in the low energy and two accelerated beam experimental areas. The ISAC-III upgrade is proposed to increase the number of RIBs simultaneously available to three. The upgrade involves the addition of a high power electron linac, 50MeV/10mA, that would irradiate one of two new independent targets and produce RIBs through photo-fission. A second beamline from the existing cyclotron would deliver an additional 500MeV 200microA proton beam to the new target area to irradiate the second target producing the third simultaneous beam. The proposal includes an additional post-accelerator front-end to augment the existing infrastructure to provide the capability of accelerating two of the RIBs simultaneously. The paper summarizes the upgrade and discusses design choices to optimize nuclide availability across the three experimental areas.

	EMMA - the Electron Model of Many Applications - is to be built at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK and will be the first non-scaling FFAG ever constructed. EMMA will be used to demonstrate the principle of this type of accelerator and study their features in detail. The design of the machine and its hardware components are now far advanced and construction is due for completion in summer 2009.
