TUPD11 | LANSCE 1L Harp Data Acquisition System Upgrade | 438 |
|
||
The 1L harp is the last beam diagnostic preceding LANSCE’s 1L Target, the neutron source of LANSCE’s Lujan Center, and consists of two orthogonal planes of stationary sense wires for monitoring the beam distribution prior to its arrival at the target. A new data acquisition system has been developed for the 1L harp that features a National Instruments CompactRIO contained within a BiRIO chassis hosting electronic circuits for signal conditioning and a new feature for sense wire integrity monitoring. Hardware design, software architecture, and preliminary data acquisition results will be described. | ||

WEPD09 | Development of a High Speed Beam Position and Phase Monitoring System for the LANSCE Linac | 655 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy. The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) is currently developing beam position and phase measurements (BPPMs) as part of the LANSCE risk mitigation project. BPPM sensors have been installed in the 805-MHz linac and development of the monitoring electronics is near completion. The system utilizes a high speed digitizer coupled with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) mounted in a VPX chassis to measure position, phase and intensity of a variety of beam structures. These systems will be deployed throughout the LANSCE facility. Details of the hardware selection and performance of the system for different timing structures are presented. |
