MUON SOURCES, NEUTRINO FACTORY TO MU+- COLLIDERS.

Employing intense muon sources to carry out forefront low energy research, such as the search for muon - number non-conservation, or for the purpose of providing intense high energy neutrino beams ({nu}factory) represents very interesting possibilities. If successful, such efforts would significantly advance the state of muon technology and provides intermediate steps in technologies required for a future high energy muon collider complex. High intensity muon: production, capture, cooling, acceleration and multiturn muon storage rings are some of the key technology issues that needs more studies and development. A muon collider require basically same number of muons as for the muon storage ring Neutrino Factory, but would require more cooling, and simultaneous capture of both {+-}{mu}. We present an overview of Muon Sources - Neutrino Factories, example of a muon storage ring at BNL, and possible upgrades to a full Muon Collider.

RTA beam dynamics experiments: limiting cumulative transverse instability growth in a linear periodic system (open access)

RTA beam dynamics experiments: limiting cumulative transverse instability growth in a linear periodic system

A critical issue for a Two-Beam accelerator based upon extended relativistic klystrons is controlling the cumulative dipole instability growth We describe a theoretical scheme to reduce the growth from an exponential to a more manageable linear rate, and a new experiment to test this concept. The experiment utilizes a 1-MeV, 600-Amp, 200-ns electron beam and a short beamline of periodically spaced RF dipole pillbox cavities and solenoid magnets for transport. Descriptions of the RTA injector and the planned beamline are presented, followed by theoretical studies of the beam transport and dipole mode growth.
