  The injector part of Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) includes 750-keV H beam transport located upstream of the Drift Tube Linac. Space charge effects play an important role in the beam transport therein. A series of experiments were performed to determine the level of beam space charge neutralization, and time required for neutralization. Measurements performed at different places along the structure indicate significant variation of neutralized space charge beam dynamics along the beamline. Results of measurements were compared with numerical simulations using macroparticle method and envelope equations to determine values of the effective beam current after neutralization, and effective beam emittance, required for beam tuning.
