Abstract :
The construction and operation of the system to transfer the 500 MeV proton beam from the fast cycling booster synchrotron to the main ring are described. The observations of beam properties in the transfer process show that the emittances of the beam extracted from the booster are properly transformed to the acceptances of the main ring. The transfer efficiency is measured to be close to 100 %.
