Analysis of Multi-turn Beam Position Measurements in the Cern Ps
نویسندگان
چکیده
The observation of betatron oscillations following a deflection by a kicker pulse offers the possibility to study various machine parameters. The decoherence and recoherence of a bunch’s centre-of-charge signal, for example, is governed by chromaticity, momentum spread and transverse nonlinearities. The multi-turn acquisition system of the CERN PS is able to store the beam position information of about 2000 turns. A careful analysis of such data can be used to extract estimates of the parameters involved, as well as to reconstruct the beam dynamics in phase space. Experimental results are compared to existing models.

For some applications an intermediate extraction mode between fast (one turn) and slow (some hundreds to many billions turns) is needed. This is the case of the five-turn extraction used to transfer the proton beam from the CERN Proton Synchrotron to the Super Proton Synchrotron. The present approach is based on beam slicing via an electrostatic septum. However, recently a novel technique was p...

Beam parameters in CERN’s Proton Synchrotron (PS) accelerator must be controlled (and measured) with tighter precision than ever before to meet the stringent requirements of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) programme. A non-destructive beam profile measurement system would be a valuable diagnostic tool. To this end, we measured N2 and Xe gas scintillation absolute cross-sections and lifetimes fo...
متن کاملNew Space-Charge Methods in Accsim and Their Application to Injection in the CERN PS Booster
The tracking and simulation code Accsim has recently been upgraded with new treatments of transverse space charge, one based on a conventional multiple-Fourier-transform technique and another using a new hybrid-fast-multipole (HFM) method. We present the application of the code to the study of multiturn injection in the CERN PS Booster in its LHC-injector-chain operation scenario. In particular...
متن کاملElectron cloud buildup and instability: Numerical simulations for the CERN Proton Synchrotron
Gas ionization and electron multiplication due to the secondary-emission process on the inner side of the beam pipe may induce the buildup of an electron cloud, which can significantly degrade the performance of rings operating with closely spaced proton or positron bunches. The undesired electron cloud causes pressure rise and beam instability when the parameters are pushed above certain thres...
متن کاملA Non-invasive Single-bunch Matching and Emittance Monitor for the Cern Ps Based on Quadrupole Pick-ups
On-line monitoring of beam quality for high brightness beams is only possible using non-invasive instruments. For matching measurements, very few such instruments are available. Therefore, a new type of quadrupole pick-up, sensitive to the beam width, has been developed for the CERN PS. A measurement system consisting of two such pick-ups has been installed in the accelerator. Using the informa...
