Abstract

A design calling for a new high-field superconducting synchrotron to occupy the Fermilab main enclosure is presented. A peak energy in the range of 1.5-1.8 TeV is envisaged. Following a brief discussion of the motivation and expected performance of the ring, the layout and lattice design effort are described. By combining the beam transfers and acceleration system in a single straight section, a potential third interaction region is acquired. The beam transfers from the main injector motivate the choice of a focusing optics reversed in sign from that of the Tevatron. In order to facilitate beam separation schemes, the dispersion function is reduced by increasing the tune and matching the long straight sections to the standard cells in the arcs
