Muon phase rotation using an induction linac

The proposed neutrino factory requires that the muons produced by the decay of pions and kaons produced by a target be phase-rotated before they can be cooled and then accelerated. This report describes a muon phase-rotation system that employs an induction acceleration system. The phase-rotation system consists of a 100-meter long induction accelerator, a mini-cooling system with magnetic flux reversal, and two 80-meter long induction linacs with a drift space between them. The induction linac phase-rotation system uses a 620-mm warm bore 1.25 T superconducting solenoid to guide the muons in the beam channel. The phase-rotation linac is divided into 1-meter long components each with its superconducting solenoid. This report describes the induction cells, the induction cell power system, and the superconducting solenoid contained within those cells.
