First observation of luminosity-driven extraction using channeling with a bent crystal
نویسندگان
چکیده
Luminosity-driven channeling extraction has been observed for the first time using a 900 GeV circulating proton beam at the superconducting Fermilab Tevatron. The extraction efficiency was found to be about 30%. A 150 kHz beam was obtained during luminosity-driven extraction with a tolerable background rate at the collider experiments. A 900 kHz beam was obtained when the background limits were doubled. This is the highest energy at which channeling has been observed. [S1098-4402(98)00003-2]

Optimization of crystal extraction experiment
Using a computer model for the crystal extraction, we investigate the bent-crystal parameters optimal for the extraction experiment. The optimal crystal curvature is found to be near 1 GeV/cm (for pv/R), i.e. a factor of 2–3 higher than for the crystal application in beam lines. An influence of the accelerator optics on extraction is discussed. A possibility of using the high-Z crystals for ext...

In the last years a new method of beam extraction from accelerator ring based on using bent crystals is successfully developed. The advantages of the method are simplicity of implementation, possibility to combine with collider mode and internal targets, and small magnitude of intensity pulsations in time. The method is also very convenient for applying in a collimation system, a crystal is use...
متن کاملChanneling of high-energy particles in bent crystals ± Experiments at the CERN SPS
During the latest decade, experiments have been performed at the CERN SPS to investigate the use of high-energy channeled nuclei in bent crystals for extraction, beam splitting and beam bending. An understanding of channeling in a bent crystal with extraction and de ̄ection eciencies for dierent energies, crystal types and ions has been developed. Furthermore, the long-standing question of rad...
متن کاملProton extraction from the CERN SPS using bent silicon crystals ?
The extraction of high energy particles from a circular accelerator by means of channeling in bent crystals is an attractive alternative to classical extraction schemes, in particular for high energy proton colliders where a classical scheme becomes expensive and incompatible with normal operation. This paper reviews the ongoing extraction experiments at the CERN-SPS with bent silicon crystals....
متن کاملAnalogy between free electron laser and channeling by crystal planes
The trapping of electrons in the ponderomotive potential wells, which governs a free electron laser or inverse free electron laser at high gain, is analogous to the channeling of charged particles by atomic planes of a crystal. A bent crystal is analogous to a period-tapered free electron laser. This analogy is different from the well-known one between channeling and undulator radiations. keywo...
