Title :
´Siberian Snake´ solenoid for the AGS

Abstract :
Retrofitting full snakes into accelerators, such as the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS), is almost impossible due to space limitations. But a partial snake that can correct depolarization due to imperfection resonances with 1/20 to 1/30 of a full strength snake seems to present a viable option. Such a device for the AGS is described, and design criteria are given in terms of simplicity of accelerator operation and level of achievable polarization.<>
