Electron Beam Generation in Tevatron Electron Lenses
New type of high perveance electron guns with convex cathode has been developed. Three guns described in this article are built to provide transverse electron current density distributions needed for Electron Lenses for beam-beam compensation in the Tevatron collider. The current distribution can be controlled either by the gun geometry or by voltage on a special control electrode located near ...
متن کاملTwenty Years of Tevatron Operation
The superconducting Tevatron accelerator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) has surpassed twenty years of operation. The Tevatron is still the highest energy particle accelerator in the world and will remain so until the commissioning of the LHC in Europe later this decade. The Tevatron has operated in a Fixed Target mode, accelerating a proton beam into stationary targets/dete...
متن کاملInvestigation of the operation of Thick Gas Electron Multiplier and Electron Multiplier Assembly for alpha particle detection
In this study, the detection of alpha particles in the high current mode is investigated in the presence of two gaseous electron multipliers in the micro-pattern structures. Thick Gas Electron Multiplier (TGEM) and an Electron Multiplier Assemblies (EMA) were designed and constructed as amplification gap in the detector chamber. An ion chamber is employed to measure the current of interaction b...
متن کاملElectron Lenses for Particle Collimation in Lhc
Electron Lenses built and installed in Tevatron have proven themselves as safe and very reliable instruments which can be effectively used in hadron collider operation for a number of applications, including compensation of beam-beam effects [1], DC beam removal from abort gaps [2], as a diagnostic tool. In this presentation we – following original proposal [3] – consider in more detail a possi...
متن کاملOptical Design using Fresnel Lenses
The Fresnel lens can be used in a wide variety of applications. The basic principles of the Fresnel lens are review ed and some practical examples are des cribed. There are definite advantages and tradeoffs that should be considered when deciding if a Fresnel lens is the appropri ate component to use in a design. Some basic optimization rules are presented which may facilitate a first order ...
