To run the SINQ facility at its design current of 2 mA, the primary beam current of the PSI cyclotrons has to be increased to 3 mA—assuming a transmission factor of the target E of 67%. In the context of a feasibility study on how to accelerate such a beam, we present the necessary upgrade steps for the different RF systems.
