Abstract

In synchrotrons the horizontal betatron acceptance decreases during rf capture and early acceleration because the energy spread increases. We consider this loss of acceptance and propose a method for minimizing it. Consequences of application to the AGS at Brookhaven are presented. It appears that a low energy spread in the injected beam and low rates of acceleration early in the cycle are favorable.
