TI - Installation of a Beam Loss Monitoring System at the S-DALINAC*
J2 - Proc. of IBIC2014
AB - The S-DALINAC is the superconducting linear accelerator of the Institut für Kernphysik at Technische Universität Darmstadt. It delivers an electron beam with energies up to 130 MeV. In order to get a short-time response about occurring beam losses and their locations a new system was tested and installed. The setup is based on beam loss monitors of Bergoz company using two pin-diodes to record primary electrons as well as secondary radiation in a coincidence set-up. The readout is done using a self-developed system of a supply unit including differential line-drivers and fast counting cards compatible to our EPICS-based control system. We will report on the installation of the whole system and its first commissioning as well as on the future use of the system for experiments on threshold currents for transverse beam break up.
