T40 Beam Diagnost ic Requirement s

Measurement of Position and Angle of Proton Beam

  • Last 2 st andard BPMs of t he prot on beam line

⇒ used t o adj ust t raj ect ory angle ⇒ 3 t imes less accuracy required f or angle t han f or posit ion at t arget

  • Final st andard BPM of t he prot on beam line & t arget BPM

⇒ used t o provide posit ion at t he t arget ⇒ set t ing up perf ormed using f inal beam line BPM ⇒ aiming at t arget rods verif ied & t racked using t arget BPM ⇒ accuracy of measurement ±0.2mm in ±2mm cent ral region. ⇒ accuracy of measurement ±0.5mm out side ±2mm cent ral region.

Conclusions

Button Electrode Monitor ⇒ Sensit ive t o air ionisat ion

  • Mechanism f or observed signal response st ill under invest igat ion

⇒ Posit ion measurement possible BUT:

  • Signal amplit ude will depend non-linearly on beam int ensit y
  • Signal shape will change depending on t he level of ionisat ion

Stripline Coupler Monitor ⇒ Seems less sensit ive t o air ionisat ion t han but t on ⇒ Posit ion measurement possible BUT:

  • Noisy Signal observed (seems broadband – so possibly OK)
  • Test s using 200MHz st ruct ure CNGS beam required f or f inal

verif icat ion

  • Add solenoid or HV f or clearing ionised air cloud (?)

I nductive Monitor ⇒ Test s yet t o be perf ormed
