The Stanford Linear Collider*

Feedback Performance at the Stanford Linear Collider†

Many feedback loops are used at the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) to control the orbit and energy of particle beams. Problems with corrector magnet slew rates, actuator calibrations, and computation of the beam transport matrix between loops have resulted in operation of many SLC feedback loops at lower than design gain. The response of various feedback loops to these errors is measured and an...

Recent Progress at the Stanford Linear Collider*

A status report on SLC commissioning is given, with special emphasis on recent progress in the Arcs and Final Focus. INTRODUCTION The Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) has two main goals 11). The first is the production of high luminosity electron-positron collisions for studying the physics of the i”. The second is to test linear colliders as a new approach towards future high-energy machines. Ci...

The Stanford Linear Collider - Fall 1988

This paper contains a description of the Stanford Linear Collider and a summary of its performance during recent periods of operation.

Status of the Stanford Linear Collider*

The Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) was built to collide single bunches of electrons and positrons head-on at a single interaction point with single beam energies up to 55 GeV. The small beam sizes and high currents required for high luminosity operation have significantly pushed traditional beam quality limits. The Polarized Electron Source produces about 8 x 1010 electrons in each of two bunch...
