TUO2B05 | Feasibility of 2 GeV Injection into the CERN PS | 343 |
|
||
The increase of the extraction energy of the CERN PSB to 2 GeV has been suggested as a method to increase the intensity of the LHC beam which can be obtained from the present injector complex. Such a change would require a redesign of the present PS proton injection system, which is already operating close to its limits within tight space constraints. The feasibility of a 2 GeV proton injection is discussed and a potential solution outlined. The implications on the injection equipment and on the performance in terms of beam parameters and losses are discussed. |
