Abstract :
The SSC (Superconducting Super Collider) will have a linear accelerator (linac) and five synchrotron systems (three booster synchrotrons plus two main synchrotron rings which constitute the collider). The linac consists of three major accelerating systems-an RF quadrupole (RFQ), a drift tube linac (DTL), and a side coupled cavity linac (CCL)-plus buncher and compressor systems. The various linac structures will be driven by solid-state, tetrode, and klystron amplifiers at power levels that range from less than 1 kW to 15 MW peak power. The system requirements and conceptual designs for the RF systems for the linac and the five SSC synchrotrons are presented.<>
