Title :
EMMA - the world´s first non-scaling FFAG
Author_Institution :
Rutherford Appleton Lab., Didcot
Abstract :
EMMA - the electron model of muon acceleration - is to be built at the STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. It will demonstrate the principle of non-scaling FFAGs and be used to study the features of this type of accelerator in detail. Although a model of the muon accelerators in a Neutrino Factory, EMMA will have sufficient flexibility to study a variety of applications. It has been designed by an international collaboration of accelerator physicists and will be built as part of the CONFORM project using funds recently approved in the UK.
