  In this paper, development of the Shoebox BPM is presented which can be applied for the measurement of turn-by-turn position data, closed orbit and tune of Xi'an Proton Application Facility (XiPAF). The preliminary design of the physical dimensions including the electrode aperture, the pipe aperture and the gap between the two electrodes is performed by calculating their effects on BPM response respectively with the equivalent circuit model. Furthermore, the mechanical structure of the Shoebox BPM is optimized by CST simulation to achieve better performance. The dependency of the BPM sensitivity and zero offset on the frequency is diminished by adding one isolating ring, which decreases coupling capacitance of electrodes and compensates ground capacitance difference of the two electrodes. Finally one prototype of the Shoebox BPM has been fabricated and tested offline. Results show that relative position measurement error due to frequency dependency of sensitivity is less than 1% and absolute measurement error due to frequency dependency of zero offset is expected to be less than 0.1 mm.

  Position monitoring, tune calculation and subsequent optimization of hadron circular accelerators requires specific instrumentation. Libera Hadron is the newly developed instrument intended for data acquisition and post processing of signals from shoe-box or capacitive type pickups. Development, initial measurements and verification of the instrument performance were conducted in the Instrumentation Technologies' laboratories, followed by the characterization measurements of the unit carried out at Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research (FAIR) facility. This article discusses the new BPM electronics concept, the tests performed and the performance obtained.

Providing Au-Au collisions in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at energies equal or lower than 10 GeV/nucleon is of particular interest to study the location of a critical point in the QCD phase diagram. To mitigate luminosity limitations arising from intra-beam scattering at such low energies, an electron cooling system is being developed. To achieve cooling, the relative velocities of the electrons and protons need to be small with maximized transverse overlap. Recombination rates of ions with electrons in the electron cooler can provide signals that can be used to tune the energies and transverse overlap to the required conditions. In this paper we take a close look at various detection methods for recombination processes that may be used to approach cooling.

Following the recommendations of the European Strategy Group for High Energy Physics, CERN launched a design study for possible future circular collider projects, FCC, to investigate their feasibility for high energy physics research. The study covers three options, a proton-proton collider, a circular e+/e collider and a scenario for e-p collisions to study deep inelastic scattering. The present paper describes the beam optics and the lattice design of the Future Hadron-Hadron Collider (FCC-hh). The status of the first order and second order optics of the ring will be shown for collisions at the required centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV cm.

WEPOR011 Lattice Matching with Elegant at ELSA dipole, lattice, quadrupole, simulation 2690
 
  • J.-P. Thiry, W. Hillert
    ELSA, Bonn, Germany
 
  The electron stretcher ring ELSA provides a beam of polarized electrons of up to 3.2 GeV energy. To preserve the initial degree of polarization, several depolarizing resonances have to be compensated during the fast energy ramp of 6 GeV/s. Beam depolarization, caused by crossing these resonances is studied using comprehensive numerical calculations. These depend essentially on a precise model of the actual magnetic field distributions, explicitly taking into account misalignments. Hence it is necessary to match the theoretical lattice to the actual accelerator. In a first step the alignment of all magnets has been examined and improved. This was done by using standard survey equipment and precise electronic spirit levels. In a second step the concept of response matrix fitting is used for further, beam based, lattice matching. Particle tracking and optics calculations are carried out using elegant, a fully 6D accelerator toolbox. Lattice matching is done by repeatedly calling elegant and utilizing a modified Levenberg-Marquardt optimizer. In this contribution we will describe our lattice fitting implementation.

The Solaris storage ring represents a new class of light source that utilizes the innovative concept of a solid iron block containing all the Double Bend Achromat (DBA) magnets. The use of small magnet gaps brings the benefit of high fields but requires vacuum chambers of high me-chanical accuracy and distributed pumping. Due to very tight mechanical tolerances of the magnet blocks and of the vacuum vessels, the installation of the Solaris storage ring was a challenging task. In this paper the commission-ing results and the performance of this novel machine will be discussed.

  To improve collaborative studies on beam dynamics for SuperKEKB between several labs, efforts have been made to translate the SAD lattices of SuperKEKB rings to the versions for other codes: AT, Bmad, MAD-X, and PTC. It turns out that lattice translations between these codes are not straightforward because of the complexity of the SuperKEKB lattices. In this paper, we describe our experiences of lattice translations, and present some results of benchmarks for the case of SuperKEKB.

THPMB009 Model Driven Machine Improvement of COSY Based on ORM Data quadrupole, optics, dipole, lattice 3240

  The COoler SYnchrotron in Jülich accelerates and stores unpolarized and polarized proton or deuteron beams in the momentum range between 0.3 GeV/c and 3.65 GeV/c [*,**]. This, in combination with its diverse capabilities of phase space cooling and the flexibility of the lattice with respect to ion-optical settings makes COSY an ideal test facility for accelerator technology development. High demands on beam control and beam based measurements have to be fulfilled for future experiments such as the proposed precursor experiment for a direct measurement of the electric dipole moment of the deuteron (see [***] and references within). The analysis of measured orbit response matrices (ORM), which com- prise the focussing structure of the ring, allows for a better understand- ing of machine imperfections such as gradient errors and misalignments of quadrupole magnets. This contribution presents the development of a MAD-X based LOCO (Linear Optics from Closed Orbits) algorithm [****] in a C++ program aiming to calibrate and correct linear optics as well as improving beam control at COSY.

  Betatron functions are a set of commonly used merits to characterize the lattice performance of a circular accelerator. The betatron functions in many accelerators can be computed using a lattice model trained or calibrated using a set of closed orbit responses, which is exemplified by the widely used LOCO technique. However, for some accelerators, like Duke storage ring with quad-sextupole combined function magnets, LOCO cannot be employed in any straight forward manner. In this case, direct measurements for betatron function are required. One way to determine betatron functions at the location of quadrupoles for a circular accelerator is to use the relationship between the quadrupole strength variations and the corresponding betatron tune change. In this paper, we present a set of carefully developed techniques to accurately measure the betatron functions at the location of quadrupoles, which allow us to achieve extremely high accuracy. Measurement errors will be discussed, and the detailed measurement technique will be present. Finally, we'll report preliminary experimental results of beta function measurements in the Duke storage ring with statistical error on the order of 1%.

  The neutrino beam produced from muons decaying in a storage ring would be an ideal tool for precise neutrino cross section measurements and search for sterile neutrinos due to its precisely known flavour content and spectrum. In the proposed nuSTORM facility pions would be directly injected into a racetrack storage ring, where circulating muon beam would be captured. The storage ring has two options: a FODO solution with large aperture quadrupoles and a racetrack FFAG (Fixed Field Alternating Gradient) using the recent developments in FFAGs. Machine parameters, linear optics design and beam dynamics are discussed in this paper.

The sensitivity to misalignment, magnet strength error, and BPM noise is investigated in order to specify design tolerances for the ion collider ring of the Jefferson Lab Electron Ion Collider (JLEIC) project. Those errors, including horizontal, vertical, longitudinal displacement, roll error in transverse plane, strength error of main magnets (dipole, quadrupole, and sextupole), BPM noise, and strength jitter of correctors, cause closed orbit distortion, tune change, beta-beat, coupling, chromaticity problem, etc. These problems generally reduce the dynamic aperture at the Interaction Point (IP). According to real commissioning experiences in other machines, closed orbit correction, tune matching, beta-beat correction, decoupling, and chromaticity correction have been done in the study. Finally, we find that the dynamic aperture at the IP is restored. This paper describes that work.

  The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is the last accelerator in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) injector chain, and has to deliver the two high-intensity 450 GeV proton beams to the LHC. The transport from SPS to LHC is done through the two Transfer Lines (TL), TI2 and TI8, for Beam 1 (B1) and Beam 2 (B2) respectively. During the first LHC operation period Run 1, a long term drift of the SPS orbit was observed, causing changes in the LHC injection due to the resulting changes in the TL trajectories. This translated into longer LHC turnaround because of the necessity to periodically correct the TL trajectories in order to preserve the beam quality at injection into the LHC. Different sources for the SPS orbit drifts have been investigated: each of them can account only partially for the total orbit drift observed. In this paper, the possible sources of such drift are described, together with the simulated and measured effect they cause. Possible solutions and countermeasures are also discussed.

Python is a high-level interpreted programming language. Despite its slow benchmarks, because of its fast coding cycle and dynamic property, the users are increasing fast in all areas. Also, because it does not need special care for the memory management, both professional and non-professional programmers can easily make bug-free code just by concentrating on logics. Furthermore, fast increasing libraries are making the language more and more useful. With these advantages, we developed python tools which simulate and analyze the particle accelerator with some parts being dedicated to NSLS-II operation.
