Funding: Work supported by the Universities Research Assoc., Inc., under contract DE-AC02-76CH03000 with the U. S. Dept. of Energy Turn-by-turn BPM data provide immediate information on the coupledoptics functions at BPM locations. In the case of small deviations from the known (design) uncoupled optics some cognizance of the sources of perturbation, BPM calibration errors and tilts can also be inferred without detailed lattice modelling. In practical situations, however, fitting the lattice model with the help of some optics code would lead to more reliable results. We present an algorithm for coupled optics reconstruction from TBT data on the basis of MAD-X and give examples of its application for the Fermilab Tevatron and Booster accelerators. |

Funding: Work supported by the U. S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-76CH03000. The Main Injector (MI) is a rapid cycling multipurpose accelerator. After completion of the Tevatron Run II, its primary application will be the acceleration of high intensity proton beams for neutrino experiments. To achieve the intensity goal a detailed knowledge of the optics and transverse impedances is necessary which can be obtained from Turn-By-Turn (TBT) beam position measurements. The recent MI Beam Position Monitor system upgrade made it possible to apply the TBT data analysis methods which were successfully used by the authors for the Tevatron. We present the results of MI optics measurements and the impedance estimates obtained from the betatron phase advance dependence on beam current. |
