  For beam transfer from the KEK-PS Linac to the Booster synchrotron ring and from the Booster to the Main ring, many pulse magnets have been installed. It is very important for the machine operation to monitor the firing time, rising time and peak value of the pulsed magnet currents. It is also very important for magnet tuning to obtain good injection efficiency of the Booster and the Main ring, and to observe the last circulating bunched beam in the Booster as well as the first circulating in the Main. These magnet currents and beam intensity signals are digitized by a digital oscilloscope with signal multiplexers, and then shown on a graphic display screen of the console via a VME computer.

  The higher beam intensities now being accelerated in the KEK proton synchrotron (PS) complex have increased the importance of observing the beam loss during acceleration. The beam loss should be continuously monitored to minimize radiation damage to the accelerator components. A fast loss monitor also is a good tool for observing where and when the beam is lost, by which we are able to get information on the beam dynamics. The development of a fast beam loss monitor system at KEK is described in this paper.

S14OOP01 Object-Oriented Programming Techniques for the AGS Booster controls, MMI, interface, software 500

  Funding: Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy.
The applications software developed for the control system of the AGS Booster Project was written in the object-oriented language, C++. At the start of the Booster Project, the programming staff of the AGS Controls Section comprised some dozen programmer/analysts, all highly fluent in C but novices in C++. During the course of this project, nearly the entire staff converted to using C++ for a large fraction of their assignments. Over 100 C++ software modules are now available both for Booster and general AGS use, of which a large fraction are broadly applicable tools. The transition from C to C++ from a managerial perspective is discussed and an overview is provided of the ways in which object classes have been applied in Booster software development.

S14OOP05 An Object-Oriented Implementation of the TRIUMF 92 MHz Booster Cavity Control System controls, database, cyclotron, cavity 520

  A 92 MHz auxiliary accelerating cavity has been designed for installation inside the 1RIUMF cyclotron, operating up to a maximum peak voltage of 200 kV. The cavity doubles the energy gain per turn for accelerating hydrogen ions in the energy region of 400-500 MeV, and reduces by 50 % the stripping loss of the ion beam. The control system for the booster comprises a PC-based processor in a VME crate, for local control, and a 68030 processor with an Ethernet connection as the interface to the TRIUMF Central Control System. The requirements for the booster control system were established by an object-oriented requirements analysis. Afterward, an object-oriented architectural design step was used to produce the processor allocation of the design, which was then implemented using C, for the VME processor, and a commercial database and screen generator product, for the VAX user interface.
