Abstract :
It has recently been suggested1 that the present high energy synchrotrons at CERN and Fermilab could be operated as pp storage rings with a center-of-mass energy of some 800 GeV. The Fermilab Energy Doubler/Saver, in addition, would be quite suitable as a high performance storage ring, producing collisions at 2 TeV in the center-of-mass. In order to achieve useful luminosity it is necessary to: 1) collect antiprotons from ˜-80 GeV protons colliding on a stationary target, 2) cool the phase space of the initially diffuse p´s, and 3) accumulate the cooled p´s over cycles. Several methods have been devised to carry out this repetitive accumulation and cooling. 2,3,4
