Heavy ion linear accelerator with high-frequency quadrupole focusing

Based on results of works on the NICA/MPD (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna) project, the possibility of designing a heavy ion linear accelerator with high-frequency quadrupole focusing both in the input part and in the main part of the accelerator is shown. Parameters of the linear 197Au31+ ion accelerator are presented. Special attention is paid to technical questions of calculating, designing, manufacturing, and tuning the accelerator.
