Abstract

The PoP (Proof of Principle) FFAG accelerator, which was the world first FFAG proton synchrotron, was constructed at KEK. After the first proton beam acceleration of FFAG, we studied various aspects of the PoP FFAG. The observed beam orbit shift during the acceleration was consistent with the simulation result. It was confirmed that the beam intensity increased about five times with multi-bunch injection. The horizontal acceptance of the PoP FFAG was estimated at about 4000 π mm.mrad experimentally
