| Abstract |
The ReA reaccelerator facility at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University (MSU) will provide a unique capability to study reactions with low-energy beams of rare isotopes. A beam from the coupled cyclotron facility is stopped in a gas stopping system, charge bred in an Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT), and then reaccelerated in a compact superconducting LINAC. At present the beam repetition rate at the ReA targets is the same as the LINAC RF frequency of 80.5 MHz. A lower frequency would be desirable for many types of experiments using time of flight data acquisitions. Studies were undertaken to investigate possible methods of reducing the beam frequency with minimal reduction in overall beam current. This paper reports the results of preliminary design studies of such a low frequency prebuncher designed to increase the pulse separation and minimize bunch lengths at the detector.
