Injection and Extraction Systems for a High-Power Proton Synchrotron at CERN

A new High-Power Proton Synchrotron (HP-PS) is being studied at CERN for the second phase of the Long Baseline Neutrino facility (LAGUNA-LBNO) wher ea2M W beam power shall impinge onto a target. A 4 GeV H − injection based on foil stripping and extendable to laser-assisted magnet stripping is described. The proposed laser-assisted stripping is assessed with regard to the laser power requirements. The feasibility of a fast extraction system at 75 GeV is presented.
