The
Recycler is an 8
GeV storage ring in
the same tunnel as the Main
|
|
|
Injector.
|
|
|
• |
The
main lattice elements (dipoles and quadrupoles) are made out of
|
|
|
permanent magnets).
|
|
|
• |
The
Recycler can accept 8 GeV antiprotons from
|
|
|
|
– |
The antiproton accumulator.
|
|
|
|
– |
The Main Injector (after deceleration).
|
|
|
• |
The
Recycler can deliver these antiprotons to the Main Injector for
|
|
|
acceleration.
|
|
|
• |
The
goal of the recycler is
|
|
|
|
– |
To store antiprotons from the accumulator, thereby
increasing the total
|
|
|
antiproton production capacity.
|
|
|
|
– |
To recover antiprotons from a Tevatron store for use
in subsequent stores.
|
|
• |
At
the moment, the recycler is not being used in standard operation.
