Description
In previous versions, the muon front end was matched to 201.25 MHz, the baseline Fermilab Linac acceleration frequency. In this note we rematch the front end to 325 MHz, a baseline acceleration frequency for Project X. The rematch requires shorter, higher-gradient rf cavities, but results in a more compact and possibly more affordable system. We demonstrate that a 325 MHz system is possible with similar acceptance to that of the previous 201.25 MHz system. Matching into a neutrino factory or Muon Collider complete cooling channel is discussed.
