Abstract :
A small 2.2 Tesla-meter booster synchrotron is under construction at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility to boost polarized beam performance in the electron cooled Indiana University Cooler Synchrotron. Polarized light proton or deuteron beam from a high intensity polarized ion source will be preaccelerated to 7 and 6 MeV respectively by an RFQ/DTL accelerator. The beams are then debunched to reduce the energy spread and strip-injected into the booster synchrotron. The booster RF system must accomplish the tasks of beam capture and acceleration. At the end of the acceleration cycle, the beam phase needs to be aligned to the Cooler synchrotron RF for bucket-to-bucket beam transfer. A single RF cavity in the ring will provide the necessary RF field to accomplish the above tasks
