Abstract

The ESCAR (Experimental Superconducting Accelerator Ring) project is an accelerator technology development for which the primary goal is to obtain design and operational experience with a complete accelerator and storage ring system utilizing superconducting magnets. Full scale design effort began in July 1974, and operation is planned in 1977. ESCAR will not only provide the experience of fabricating and operating an extensive cryogenic magnet system with a significant advancement beyond present experience, but it will also provide a comprehensive accelerator system from which can be learned the realities of the interaction between the new cryogenic elements and the many other components of an accelerator. The extent to which these components (e.g., rf, injection, vacuum, control systems, etc.) are compatible with the cryogenic features of the accelerator, and to which they force modifications of the design, will be determined.
