Abstract

A new design for the lattices of the SSC´s (Superconducting Super Collider´s) three injectors is presented. The complex is matched so that the SSC filling factor is 94%, and is designed so that there is no transition crossing at any point. The dispersion function is small overall and vanishes in the straight sections. Tracking simulations which include the effect of the space-charge force, sextupoles, synchrotron oscillations, and the expected random and systematic dipole magnet errors indicate that the CDR magnet design allows adequate dynamic aperture for all three boosters and that the space-charge force in the LEB has no significant detrimental effect provided the LEB is tuned properly.<>
