Injection Extraction Snake strength has energy dependence
Double snake scheme Merit 1: large spin tune gap to RHIC from Booster AGS 120° A20:CSNK E20:WSNK ← Spin tune Eq. for “single” snake ↓ Spin tune Eq. for “double” snake : CSNK strength Merit 1: large spin tune gap Merit 2: small spin mismatch : WSNK strength
Spin tune around first intrinsic resonance with 2 snakes 12k±νy (νy = 8.9) Large spin tune gap = 3m WSNK=8.4% CSNK=15% Injection energy

Red: 10%CSNK+6%WSNK Blue: 6%CSNK+6%WSNK Result in RUN6
Summary The triple snake scheme was simulated. ・Larger spin tune gap ・No spin mismatch 6%CSNK+6%WSNK was operated. Achieved same level polarization to 10%CSNK +6%WSNK If the 6%+6% machine is optimized, the polarization might be improved.
