Description

In a rapid cycling synchrotron, sinusoidal excitation using an LC resonant circuit is commonly used as the current pattern for the main magnets. In this case, dB/dt reaches its maximum value at the 1/4 cycle period, and the time variation of dB/dt is important in determining the required RF acceleration voltage. Multi-harmonic excitation can be considered as a method to reduce the time variation of the bending magnetic field. Mathematically, a 12.5% of 2ndharmonic can suppress dB/dt to 75%, i.e., B(t) = Bo + B1(cos(ωt)+0.125sin(2ωt)), which also leads to suppression of RF peak voltage. In this study, we compare the advantages of sinusoidal excitation and harmonic excitation using the J-PARC RCS as an example.
