Abstract :
This paper is a summary report of the Proton Driver design study that has recently been completed at Fermilab. It describes the design of a new 16 GeV high intensity rapid cycling synchrotron as a replacement of the present Booster. The major design goals are: (1) 1 MW beam power; (2) 1 ns (r.m.s.) bunch length. The construction will be staged. It has also an upgrade path to 4 MW
