TUPLS05 | High-Level Physics Application for the Emittance Measurement by Allison Scanner | 459 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DESC0000661 On the ion accelerator, transverse emittance diagnostics usually happens at the low-energy transportation region, one device named "Allison Scanner" is commonly used to achieve this goal. In this contribution, we present the software development for both the high-level GUI application and the online data analysis, to help the users to get the beam transverse emittance information as precise and efficient as possible, meanwhile, the entire workflow including the UI interaction would be smooth and friendly enough. One soft-IOC application has been created for the device simulation and application development. A dedicated 2D image data visualization widget is also introduced for general-purposed PyQt GUI development. |

TUPLH03 | Double-Bend Achromat Beamline for Injection Into a High-Power Superconducting Electron Linac | 494 |
|
||
To take advantage of the high duty cycle operation of superconducting electron linacs, commercial systems use thermionic cathode electron guns that fill every RF bucket with an electron bunch. In continuous operation, the exit energy is limited when compared to pulsed systems. Bunch length and energy spread at the exit of the gun are incompatible with low losses in the superconducting cavity. A solenoid double-bend achromatic beamline is in operation at Niowave which allows energy and bunch length filtering of the beam leaving the gun before injection into the superconducting cavity. This system uses two solenoids and two dipoles to produce a round beam, using the edge angles of the dipoles to balance the focusing effects in the two transverse planes. The design allows beam filtering on the symmetry plane where the dispersion is maximum. Additionally, the bend angle moves the electron gun off the high-energy beam axis, allowing multiple-pass operation of the superconducting booster. This contribution will discuss the beam optics design of the double-bend achromat along with the design of the magnets and beam chambers and the operational experience with the system. | ||

The Oak Ridge Isotope/Isomer Spectrometer and Separator (ORISS) is an electrostatic multiply reflecting time-of-flight (MRTOF) mass separator constructed by the University Radioactive Ion Beam Consortium (UNIRIB) and Louisiana State University. The device was never fully commissioned, and was eventually shipped to Michigan State University for use at the Facility for Rare Isotopes and Beams (FRIB). The separation process is sensitive to space-charge effects due to the reflection of ions at both ends of the trap, as well as nonlinearities in the optics. In this study we apply the time-based particle-in-cell code Warp to model the effects of intense space-charge during the separation process. We find that the optics can be tuned for isochronous operation and focusing in the presence of intense space-charge to enable separation of bunches with high particle counts. This suggests the device may be effectively utilized at FRIB as a separator, spectrograph and spectrometer. | ||

Quadrupole and solenoid scans are common techniques where a series of beam profile measurements are taken under varying excitation of the linear focusing elements to unfold second-order phase-space moments of the beam at an upstream location. Accurate knowledge of the moments is crucial to machine tuning and understanding the underlying beam dynamics. The scans have many sources of errors including measurement errors, field errors and misalignments. The impact of these uncertainties on the moment measurement is often not analyzed. This study proposes a scheme motivated by linear algebra error bounds that can efficiently select a set of scan parameters to minimize the errors in measured initial moments. The results are verified via a statistical error analysis. These techniques are being applied at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). We find that errors in initial moments can be large under conventional scans but are greatly reduced using the procedures described. | ||
