Instead of having four separate return loops to the linac, it instead has a single fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG) beamline with nearly a factor of 4 energy acceptance. While ideally the FFAG would be circular with identical cells all around, space and cost considerations dictate that small radius of curvature FFAGs should be used near the linac, connected by a straight beamline. To ensure good orbit matching over the entire energy range, adiabatic transitions are inserted between the arcs and the straight. After briefly introducing basic principles of FFAG optics, we describe how we choose the parameters of the arc cell, the basic building block of the lattice. We then describe how the straight cell is chosen to work well with the arc. Finally we describe the design process for the transition that ensures orbits over the entire energy range end up very close to the axis of the straight. We discuss how the realization of this lattice design with physical magnets impacts the design process.
