In this work, we suggest and investigate new magnetless circulators based on three resonators connected in a loop and parametrically modulated in time with mutual phase lag. The first design consists of three Fano resonators with a spectrally asymmetric response, in contrast to schemes based on the Lorentz resonators explored thus far. The second design includes three Fano-Lorentz resonators, i.e., it also possesses spatial asymmetry. We demonstrate that the asymmetric approach provides strong and reversible isolation for the practically feasible modulation amplitude and rate. The results of our work are promising for precise measurements of superconducting radio frequency cavities with high Q-factor.

Increasing the Main Injector (MI) beam power above ~1.2 MW requires replacement of the 8-GeV Booster by a higher intensity alternative. In the Project X era, rapid-cycling synchrotron (RCS) and linac solutions were considered for this purpose. In this paper, we consider the linac version that produces 8 GeV H− beam for injection into the Recycler Ring (RR) or Main Injector (MI). The linac takes ~1-GeV beam from the PIP-II Linac and accelerates it to ~2 GeV in a 650-MHz SRF linac, followed by a 8-GeV pulsed linac using 1300 MHz cryomodules. The linac components incorporate recent improvements in SRF technology. Research needed to implement the high power SRF Linac is described.
