The SSC Low Energy Booster meticulously details the first and, in many respects, the most challenging accelerator of the injector chain, the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC). Halted by Congress in the construction stage, the Superconducting Super Collider Laboratory (SSCL) was to be the premier high-energy physics research facility in the world. With its demands on beam brightness, the SSC accelerators required significant advances in accelerator design and technology.
Complete with close-up performance evaluations of each system, along with a look at the steps taken toward implementation, The SSC Low Energy Booster captures design decisions made for the first injector synchrotron, up to the project's end. Many prototypes were built, and discussions of their performance add to the practical value of the book.
It also demonstrates how the design of the accelerator systems is driven by beam physics requirements and addresses the trade-offs involved in developing reasonable and efficient system implementations.
As the field of high-energy physics matures, the demands on accelerator performance continually rise and, along with them, the demands on accelerator systems. This handbook will be of tremendous value to engineers and physicists currently making decision regarding the design or implementation of accelerator functions and systems.
