Abstract:We review the performance of the Fermilab rapid-cycling Booster emphasizing those a spec ts which allow acceleration of up to 4. 5 x 1013 protons per second to energies of 8 to 10 GeV. Characteristics of a kaon factory based on this machine will be discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
