Minimizing longitudinal distortion in a nearly isochronous linear nonscaling fixed-field alternating gradient accelerator
Linear nonscaling FFAGs (fixed-field alternating gradient accelerators) are machines that use linear magnets to achieve an extremely large energy acceptance (generally a factor of 2 or more). This paper examines the longitudinal dynamics in such a machine, focusing on the longitudinal acceptance, th...
