Abstract :
We intend to build a small, low-cost, low-energy isochronous ring for experimental study of the space charge effect in isochronous cyclotrons and synchrotrons at the transition gamma. The paper describes the main physics issues to be addressed by the ring and the ring design. It also presents results of beam dynamics simulations in the ring
