Longitudinal emittance blowup in fixed field alternating gradient muon accelerators

The fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG) accelerator is proposed as a muon accelerator because of its large aperture and no need of magnet ramping. In particular, the nonscaling type of FFAG has been studied because of its simple magnets and its unique acceleration method using the path out of th...
