MOPS043	Beam Performance in H⁻ Injector of LANSCE	697

	During beam development time in 2010 we performed a series of beam emittance and beam profile scans along 750-keV H⁻ beam transport and 800-MeV linac. The purpose of the measurements was to determine the effects of space charge, slow-wave intensity modulation or chopping, RF buncher fields, and vacuum conditions on beam performance. As previously reported, from our observation and analysis we concluded that the 750 keV H⁻ beam transport is space-charge uncompensated. This presentation will look at the relative importance of space-charge, chopping, and RF-buncher on the observed emittance growth for beam in the short and long pulse regime as well as the effects of beam line vacuum degradation on beam size and emittance at the end of the linac.

During beam development time in 2010 we performed a series of beam emittance and beam profile scans along 750-keV H⁻ beam transport and 800-MeV linac. The purpose of the measurements was to determine the effects of space charge, slow-wave intensity modulation or chopping, RF buncher fields, and vacuum conditions on beam performance. As previously reported*, from our observation and analysis we concluded that the 750 keV H⁻ beam transport is space-charge uncompensated. This presentation will look at the relative importance of space-charge, chopping, and RF-buncher on the observed emittance growth for beam in the short and long pulse regime as well as the effects of beam line vacuum degradation on beam size and emittance at the end of the linac.
