Abstract:

A large increase in proton intensity is possible after the collider program concludes because the present antiproton production complex can be converted into a multi-stage proton accumulator for injection into the Main Injector. This accumulator would have three major components, each re-using or replacing existing machines:
• The Accumulator ring as a RF momentum stacker.
• The Recycler ring as a box-car stacker.
• The Debuncher ring would be replaced with a wide aperture booster.
