  PETRA III is a 6 GeV third generation synchrotron light source in Hamburg, Germany. The storage ring is operated with a typical beam current of 100 mA and is running in top-up mode. The beam delivered to PETRA III is accelerated by a fast cycling booster synchrotron (DESY II), extracted in a 203 m long beam transport line (E-Weg) and injected afterwards into PETRA III. In the framework of PETRA IV upgrade scenarios the potential for decreasing the extracted emittance from DESY II has been investigated which can be achieved by lowering the extraction energy to 5 GeV and increasing the focusing in DESY II. In addition measuring the emittance of the extracted beam from DESY II and the optics in the beam transport line can help to better understand and improve the injection efficiency of PETRA III. By changing the quadrupole strength and measuring the beam size downstream on a screen monitor in the E-Weg the emittance of DESY II and the Twiss functions at the quadrupole in the E-Weg have been determined. Measurements at different energies and tunes of DESY II will be shown and compared with calculations.

Energy variation study for beam transport from the entrance of a conceptual induction radiography accelerator to the x-ray target has been reported previously [1]. In this report, we have extended the study upstream to the injector. To achieve minimum emittance growth and to obtain a desired final beam size, we have developed three optimal tunes. Among them, one optimal tune, capable of supressing beam break-up instability and producing acceptable corkscrew motions, is used to study the energy variation effects on radiography performance. The study shows that ±3% energy variation is acceptable.

  A linear beam transport system, experimentally tested at the Laser Wakefield Accelerator in Jena, Germany, has been carefully analyzed in order to gain a deeper understanding of the experimental results and to develop experimental strategies for the future. This analysis encompassed a detailed characterization of the focusing magnets and an investigation of the effects of source parameters as well as magnet and alignment errors on the observables accessible in the experiment. A dedicated tracking tool was developed for these investigations. In this contribution we review the main results of these studies.

  The linac to ring beam transport line (LRBT) connects the 80 MeV linac and the 1.6 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) of the China spallation neutron source (CSNS). The linac and LRBT commissioning have been in progress in the past months and the H beam has been accelerated to the kinetic energy of 60MeV this April. The H beam in LRBT which was measured and commissioned transported through the long beam line with low loss. The beam commissioning process and results of LRBT are presented and discussed.

TUPVA144 Beam Based Steering in LANSCE Proton Low Energy Beam Transport quadrupole, proton, emittance, alignment 2435
 
  • Y.K. Batygin

  Beam based steering is an important procedure to minimize beam emittance growth. Low energy 750 keV LANSCE proton beam transport line before injection into Drift Tube Linac (DTL) has a length of 10 m and uses 22 quadrupoles, 6 steering magnets, 2 bending magnets, combination of prebuncher and main buncher, beam deflector, and collimators. Matching of the beam with the structure includes providing beam waists at the entrance of RF cavities, and matched beam Twiss parameters at the entrance to DTL. Typical beam emittance growth was at the level of 2-2.5. Beam based steering procedure was implemented to minimize emittance growth in the beamline. It includes determination of beam offset and beam angle entering group of quadrupoles and subsequent correction of beam angle to minimize beam offset in quadrupoles. Implementation of the procedure resulted in significant reduction of emittance growth at the level of 10%.

  PF-AR was constructed as an accumulator ring for TRISTAN, and in the KEKB era it has been revitalized as a 6.5 GeV synchrotron radiation source. The injection energy was 3 GeV and the beam was accelerated to 6.5 GeV prior to the user run. The original beam transport line (BT) from the LINAC to the PF-AR shared its upstream part with the the BT line of KEKB High Energy Ring (HER). The injection-mode change from PF-AR to HER or vice versa needs about 10 minutes for the magnet cycling procedure of the shared part. In SuperKEKB, the upgrade of KEKB, the lifetime of HER is about 10 minutes. The mode-switch operation of the BT is, therefore, not allowed for maintaining the highest luminosity of the SuperKEKB. In order to avoid this problem, a new 6.5 GeV BT line dedicated to PF-AR has been constructed. This also enables the top-up injection for the user run. The commissioning of the new BT line has been completed in this March, and now the first user run has been operated successfully.

  In the framework of the Italian In-Kind Contribution (IKC) to the construction of the European Spallation Source (ESS), Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste is in charge of providing some key equipment for the accelerator. Among them, there are the magnets and the associated power converters for the Linac Warm Units (LWU), the High Energy Beam Transport (HEBT) dogleg, the Dump Line (DmpL) and the Accelerator to Target (A2T) sections of the neutron source. Magnets and their power converters are complementary parts of common systems. Their design cannot be totally separated, requiring iterations for an optimal solution that should include also power cable standardization. This work will describe the power converters' solutions adopted for the magnets of the above-mentioned sections. They comprise 4-Quadrant power converters for the correctors, compact DC power converters for the small quadrupole magnets and more powerful DC power converters for the dipole and large quadrupole magnets.
