• The Booster takes the
400 MeV Linac Beam and accelerates it to 8 GeV.
• From the Booster, beam
can be directed to:
• The Main
Injector
• MiniBooNE (switch
occurs in the MI-8 transfer line).
• The Radiation
Damage Facility (RDF) – actually, this is the old Main Ring transfer line.
• A dump.
• The Booster is the
only (almost) original accelerator in the
Fermilab complex.
• It maintains an
average uptime of > 90%
