Observation of the acceleration of a single bunch by using the induction device in the KEK proton synchrotron.

A single rf bunch in the KEK proton synchrotron was accelerated with an induction acceleration method from the injection energy of 500 MeV to 5 GeV.

Superbunch hadron colliders.

A novel concept of a high luminosity hadron collider is proposed. This would be a typical application of an induction synchrotron being newly developed. Extremely long bunches, referred to as superbunches, are generated by a multibunch stacking method employing barrier buckets at the injection into the collider and are accelerated with a step voltage induced in the induction gaps.
