  • Abstract
    The CERN PS Booster project foresees the injection of 160 MeV H- ions into the booster from Linac 4. For this substantial upgrade, a system of 5 pulsed magnets (BIDIS) and 3 vertical septa (BISMV) will distribute the Linac pulses into the four-vertically separated Booster injection lines before being injected into the rings. This paper describes the magnetic calculations and the design concept that will be used in the future upgrade of the BISMV. Subsequently the mechanical design of the septa and their integration into the existing transfer line will be discussed.
