Abstract The low energy part of our pre injectors* is made up of a 90 kV DC thermoionic triode gun, followed by a 500 MHz sub harmonic prebuncher and a 3 GHz prebuncher. These two cavities are respectively fed with 500 W, a modulation of ± 25 kV, and 90 W corresponding to a ± 10 kV. The gun grid is modulated within a 500 MHz signal. The initial 1 ns phase extension at the gun level is reduced, at the buncher entry, to 40 ps for 75% of the gun current. This study proposes to replace the gun and the two cavities by a RF gun integrated in a modulated cavity at 200 MHz followed by a drift in order to bunch the beam. This study will compare the beam dynamics simulations for these two cases.
