A Versatile High Resolution Beam Position Monitor*
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new kind of Cerenkov beam position monitor is described. The counter, though relatively simple and inexpensive, has high sensitivity, introduces a minimal amount of multiple scattering, and is capable of high spatial resolution over a wide range of beam currents 0 Measurements of the position of the SLAC electron beam to an accuracy of I l/2 mm have been made for electron currents from 20 nA to 10 mA.

Design of a subnanometer resolution beam position monitor for dielectric laser accelerators.
We present a new concept for a beam position monitor with the unique ability to map particle beam position to a measurable wavelength. Coupled with an optical spectrograph, this beam position monitor is capable of subnanometer resolution. We describe one possible design, and through finite-element frequency-domain simulations, we show a resolution of 0.7 nm. Because of its high precision and ul...
متن کاملLinac Coherent Light Source Undulator Rf Bpm System *
The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) will be the world's first x-ray free-electron laser (FEL) when it becomes operational in 2009. The LCLS is currently in the construction phase. The beam position monitor (BPM) system planned for the LCLS undulator will incorporate a high-resolution X-band cavity BPM system described in this paper. The BPM system will provide high-resolution measurements of...
متن کاملNew Microwave Beam Position Monitors for the TESLA Test Facility | FEL
Beam-based alignment is essential for the operation of the SASE-FEL at the TESLA Test Facility Linac. In order to ensure the overlap of the photon beam and the electron beam, the position of the electron beam has to be measured along the undulator beamline with a high resolution. Due to the severe space limitations, a new microwave concept is being considered. It is based on special ridged wave...
متن کاملA beam monitor using silicon pixel sensors for hadron therapy
We report the design and test results of a beam monitor developed for online monitoring in hadron therapy. The beam monitor uses eight silicon pixel sensors, Topmetal-II−, as the anode array. Topmetal-II− is a charge sensor designed in a CMOS 0.35 μm technology. Each Topmetal-II− sensor has 72 × 72 pixels and the pixel size is 83 × 83 μm. In our design, the beam passes through the beam monitor ...
متن کاملA Single-pass Beam Position Monitor for the Injection Beam at the Photon Factory Storage Ring
A single-pass beam-position monitor (BPM) system to measure the injection-beam positions in the storage ring was developed. Bipolar bunch signals extracted through button electrodes were recorded in real time using a high-speed waveform digitizer, and the beam positions were determined from the amplitudes of the bipolar signals. The beam positions at 8 BPMs were measured at the same time by mea...
