  • Abstract
    The AGS has been brought into operation in October 1982 with multi-turn H- charge exchange injection. The injection area of the AGS has been modified to bring the H- beam from the 200 MeV linac through the main magnet fringe field to a stripping foil located within the magnet aperture. The injection system is described in detail and initial performance of the accelerator is reported.
