Description

Recent studies by Dejan Trbojevic have confirmed that Non-Scaling Fixed Field Accelerators (NS-FFAs) can have their tune dependence on momentum flattened by adding non-linear components to the magnet fields, although not necessarily for an unlimited momentum range. This paper presents such a cell suitable for the proposed 3-12MeV FETS-FFA proton R&D ring at RAL.
The nonlinear magnetic field components are found automatically using an optimiser and settings covering a ring tune range of one unit in both planes independently are attainable. A fully configurable magnet with multiple windings across its horizontal aperture has been designed in 2D using Poisson, which can produce the required nonlinear fields without exceeding 5A/mm^2 current density.
