## Abstract

Taking advantage of the 0{\deg} synchronous phase, the KONUS ("Combined 0{\deg} Structure" translated from German "Kombinierte Null Grad Struktur") beam dynamics strategy enables long accelerating sections with lens-free slim drift tubes in the low and medium energy regime. It has successfully realized worldwide many room temperature H-type linacs with compact layouts and good beam performance. In this paper, a further development of this solution i.e. to combine the KONUS dynamics with the young superconducting CH (Crossbar H-Type) structure for accelerating very high intensity beams is being presented. The efficiency of the new solution has been shown by the systematic design studies performed for a 150mA, 6MW deuteron linac.
