Abstract

KOMAC (KOrea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex) is the 1 Gev, 20 ㎃ proton linac. The superconducting linac for the high energy part acceleration from 100 MeV to 1 GeV is selected as a main candidate. As is well known, the superconducting linac has advantages for high current, high energy acceleration such as a large bore size, short accelerator length, and the RF efficiency. In this energy, the velocity of proton increases from $\beta$=0.87. For the design and fabrication simplicity, the cavity $\beta$ stages are divided into 3 parts. The maximum electric field in the cavity is designed below 20 ㎹/m. In this paper the design concepts and guides for this superconducting linac are introduced.
