| Abstract | Beam emittance plays the crucial role in a Beam transportation system. At a fixed-target beamline off the AGS Booster Synchrotron, beam emittance is determined through measuring the beam width via a segmented multi-wire ion chamber (SWIC) and varying quadrupole strength. The width of the beam signal (as Full Width Half Max) on the SWIC passes through a minimum value and the resulting dataset of FWHM per magnet current is used to fit a function. Using this technique, new controls software has been developed to set up measurements, acquire data, and perform analysis through a python-based scripts to calculate the emittance along the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) beamline. Initial results of the program are presented to for various points along the beamline in a variety of conditions. |
