  • Abstract
    In order to provide for electron-proton collisions in the PEP system, plans for a high-energy superconducting proton storage ring are being explored. The energy is constrained to 300 GeV by the radius of the PEP tunnel (350 meters) and the field strength (7 tesla) expected to be available in practical superconducting magnets. A new configuration has been developed in which the proton ring vertically crosses the horizontal electron ring in 4 of the 6 straight-sections. Synchronization of the two beams is provided by means of bypasses in the two non-crossing straight sections in the electron ring. The proton injector is a 5 GeV/c synchrotron 1/18 as large as the main ring.
