Abstract Synchrotrons and storage rings routinely employ RF barrier buckets as a means of accumulating charge to increase the peak intensity and preserve longitudinal emittance while minimizing emittance growth [1-3]. This was shown in the main injector and recycler at Fermilab as well as the SIS-18 at GSI Helmholtz center for heavy ion research. The RF cavities typically used are ferrite loaded magnetic alloys with low Q to maximize bandwidth and generate single pulses, either as delta functions, triangular or half/full period sine waves. The University of Maryland Electron Ring (UMER) group is studying a novel scheme of bunch compression in the presence of longitudinal space charge. It has been analytically shown through 1-D computations that the presence of space-charge considerably improves the efficiency of the barrier compression by taking advantage of the shock-front that launches when the barrier moves into a space-charge dominated beam. In this paper, we summarize the initial results of the study.
