Problems in the design of a proton driver for a {mu}-{mu} collider

Design details are given for accelerator physics issues, technical components and final beam bunching. Discussed physics issues include: space charge tune shift, microwave instability of bunched beam, transverse resistive wall instability, head-tail instability, cavity beam loading, and lattice design. The use of technical components to minimize beam impedance is investigated. Several alternatives to the ISIS-type wire of rod cage were considered: vacuum, magnets, rf cavities, and injection. The two final beam bunching schemes considered were: chicane and an assembler ring with linear induction buncher
