The antiproton decelerator: overview

The Antiproton Decelerator (AD) is a simplified scheme for the provision of antiprotons at 100 MeV/c based on fast extraction. It uses the existing antiproton production target area and the modified Antiproton Collector Ring in their current locations. The machine modifications necessary to deliver...

description The Antiproton Decelerator (AD) is a simplified scheme for the provision of antiprotons at 100 MeV/c based on fast extraction. It uses the existing antiproton production target area and the modified Antiproton Collector Ring in their current locations. The machine modifications necessary to deliver batches of 1 x 10$^7$ antiproton/mn at 100 MeV/c are well under way. Commissioning with test-protons is foreseen to start this September (1998), running-in with antiprotons is planned to start after the shut down (December 1998 - April 1999) in Spring 1999. First physics runs are planned for late Summer/Autumn 1999. The status of the machine is described.
