Abstract :
TRIUMF will carry out a 1-year preconstruction engineering design and impact study of the KAON Factory. This will enable prototypes to be built of various components of the TRIUMF Booster ring-a fast-cycling dipole magnet, dual-frequency magnet power supply, ceramic beam pipe, RF cavities (both parallel and perpendicular bias versions), and extraction kicker-and a rotating target for the 3-MW 30-GeV beam. Reviews are being carried out of racetrack designs for all five rings, of the shielding and remote handling requirements, and of the layout of the experimental areas. The design of the tunnels and buildings will be finalized, various impact studies carried out, and international involvement pursued further
