Abstract
RFQ accelerators normally incorporate adiabatic bunchers in the accele rator proper. This produces high accelerator acceptance but less-than- optimum longitudinal emittance as a result of severe filamentation of the longitudinal phase space. The use of discrete bunchers both intern al and external to the RFQ, along with new approaches in accelerator-o nly (no adiabatic buncher) RFQ beam dynamics designs produces signific antly lower longitudinal output emittance with high acceptance.
