Abstract :
This paper summarizes a preliminary conceptual design for a Tevatron collider configuration in which bunches are spaced at 132 nsec. Increasing the number of bunches is not expected to raise the luminosity-the sole motivation is to reduce the number of interactions per crossing by about a factor of three. Multibunch schemes with 72, 108, 96, and 120 proton and antiproton bunches have been studied
