MOI1C01 | Intense-beam Issues in CSNS and C-ADS Accelerators | 25 |
|
||
In 2011 construction of two intense-beam accelerators were launched for China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) project and China Accelerator Driven System (C-ADS) project. CSNS uses a pulsed accelerator with an H− linac and a rapid cycling synchrotron, and C-ADS has a CW proton linac with superconducting cavities. In both cases, the beam power is high and beam loss control is a key issue in beam dynamics. Beam emittance growth and beam halo formation must be carefully studied in beam dynamics and well controlled in machine design. This paper will present a brief introduction to the physics design of the two intense-beam accelerators, especially on the issue of beam instability. In their linac design equapartitioning focusing scheme is adopted to avoid coupling instability. Some beam halo formation experimental results due to mismatching will be compared with simulations. Beam halo generation due to the quench of superconducting cavity and magnet is investigated in detail and compensation scheme is also proposed. Beam loss study for the error effects and orbit correction will be presented. | ||

MOP243 | Experimental Results of Beam Halo at IHEP | 151 |
|
||
Space-charge forces acting in mismatched beams have been identified as a major cause of beam halo. In this paper, we describe the beam halo experimental results in a FODO beam line at IHEP. With this beam transport line, experiments are firstly carried out to determine the main beam parameters at the exit of a RFQ with intense beams, and then the measured beam profiles at different positions are compared with the multi-particle simulation profiles to study the formation of beam halo. The maximum measured amplitudes of the matched and mismatched beam profiles agreed well with simulations. Details of the experiment will be presented. | ||
TUO3B04 | End to End Beam Dynamics and Design Optimization for CSNS Linac | 286 |
|
||
The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) will use a linear accelerator delivering a 15mA beam up to 80MeV for injection into a rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS). Since each section of the linac was determined individually, a global optimization based on end-to-end simulation results has refined some design choices, including the drift-tube linac (DTL) and the medium energy beam transport (MEBT). The simulation results and reasons for adjustments are presented in this paper. | ||

TUO3C05 | Beam Commissioning Plan for CSNS Accelerators | 334 |
|
||
Funding: Supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China (11175193) The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is now under construction, and the beam commissioning of ion source will start from the end of 2013, and will last several years for whole accelerator. The commissioning plan for CSNS accelerators will be presented in the presentation, including the commissioning correlated parameters, the goal at different commissioning stages and some key commissioning procedures for each part of accelerators. The detailed schedule for commissioning will be also given. |
