  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.

  For the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron of China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS/RCS), the stripping foil scattering generates the beam halo and gives rise to additional beam losses during the injection process. The interaction between the proton beam and the stripping foil was discussed and the foil scattering was studied. A simple model and the realistic situation of the foil scattering were considered. By using the codes ORBIT and FLUKA, the multi-turn phase space painting injection process with the stripping foil scattering for CSNS/RCS was simulated and the beam losses due to the foil scattering were obtained.

  As a key component of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) Project, the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) will accumulate and accelerate the proton beams from 80 MeV to 1.6 GeV for extracting and striking the target with a repletion rate of 25 Hz. To check linear optics and locate the quadruple errors, beta function plays an important role in beam diagnostics of a particle accelerate system. The Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a robust beam diagnosis method by decomposing the samples recorded by turn by turn BPMs (beam position monitors) into the independent components which represent the inherent motion of the beam. The beta functions and phase advances can be derived from the corresponding independent components. Because the linear part of the space charge gives a defocusing effect to the beam, beta function variation will be induced. We find that the ICA method can measure beta functions with a reasonable tolerance under the conditions of strong space charge effects.

  Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) is the key part of China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) accelerators. The RCS accumulates and accelerates 80 MeV beam from linac to 1.6 GeV. The particle number is 1.56·1013 for each pulse, with repetition rate of 25 Hz. In the RCS, longitudinal beam dynamics plays a crucial role in achieving high intensity beam with low beam loss. Longitudinal parameters are studied and optimized for efficient RF trapping of the beam in the longitudinal phase space. Beam performance is investigated by particle tracking simulations. Beam dynamic issues related to the high order mode induced by the RF generator are studied with a new developed code. Primary study on the adoption of dual harmonic cavity for higher beam power is also addressed.

  Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a high intensity proton accelerator, with average beam power of 100kW. The collective effects caused by the coupling impedance may be the limit to beam power. The impedance estimation for components on beam line shows that the resistive wall impedance and its instability are more serious than any others. Based on the impedance budget, the instability is theoretically estimated. A simple resistive wall wake field model is used to simulate the bunch oscillation and obtain the growth time. In this simulation model, the continuous resistive wall wake field is concentrated to one position in the ring and the long bunch is sliced into many micro-bunches. By tracking the dynamics of the macro-bunches, the transverse growth time are obtained. The simulation results are also confirmed the restriction to instability by natural chromaticity.

THO1A02 Effects of Magnetic Field Tracking Errors and Space Charge on Beam Dynamics at CSNS/RCS 484

  The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is an accelerator-based facility. It operates at 25 Hz repetition rate with an design beam power of 100 kW. CSNS consists of a 1.6-GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) and a 80-MeV linac. The lattice of the CSNS/RCS is triplet based four-fold structure. The preferred working points of CSNS/RCS are (4.86, 4.78) which can avoid the major low-order structure resonances. But because of the chromatic tune shift, space-charge incoherent tune shift and the tune shift caused by magnetic field tracking errors between the quadrupoles and the dipoles, some structure resonances are unavoidable. The chromaticity, space charge effects and magnetic field tracking errors can also induce beta function distortion, and influence the transverse acceptance and the collimation efficiency of the collimation system. In this paper we show results of space-charge simulations introducing magnetic field tracking errors and discuss the combined effects of chromaticity, magnetic field tracking errors and space charge on the beam dynamics for CSNS/RCS.
