Abstract

The proton engineering frontier project (PEFP) proposes the 1-2 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron accelerator as an extension of the PEFP linac, which initially is a 15 Hz rapid-cycling synchrotron (RCS) with the injection energy of 100 MeV. The target beam power is 58 kW at 1.0 GeV beam energy in the first stage, through 5 stages of improvement it could be reach to 900 kW. The PEFP RCS is basically composed of magnet lattice of main ring, injection system and extraction system. The conceptual lattice design of the RCS as well as the simulations of an injection system is described in this paper.
