A Bunch Compressor for the next Linear Collider
نویسندگان
چکیده
A bunch compressor design for the Next Linear Collider (NLC) is described. The compressor reduces the bunch length by a factor of 40 in two stages. The first stage at 2 GeV consists of an rf section and a wiggler. The second stage at 10 GeV is formed by an arc, an rf section, and a chicane. The final bunch phase is insensitive to initial phase errors and to beam loading in the intermediate Sband pre-linac. Residual longitudinal aberrations of the system are partially compensated. The bunch compressor encompasses a solenoid spin-rotator system at 2 GeV that allows complete control over the spin orientation.

Beam Dynamics in Linear Colliders*
.In this paper, we discuss some basic beam dynamics issues related to obtaining and preserving the luminosity of a next generation linear collider. In Figure 1 you see a diagram illustrating the main subsystems of one-half of the collider. The beams are extracted from a damping ring and compressed in length by the first bunch compressor. They are then accelerated in a preaccelerator linac up to...
متن کاملFirst Bunch Length Studies in the Slc South Final Focus
We report the rst studies of bunch length in collision in an operating linear collider, making use of a new rf bunch length monitor installed in the South Final Focus of the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) prior to the 1997/98 luminosity run. The theoretical and measured monitor responses to linac injection phase and bunch compressor voltage are described. Correlations with beamstrahlung and lum...
متن کاملShielded Coherent Synchrotron Radiation and Its Effect on Very
Shielded coherent synchrotron radiation is discussed for two cases: (1) a beam following a circular path midway between two parallel conducting plates, and (2) a b earn circulating in a toroidal chamber. Wake -fields and the energy radiated are computed for both cases. Under conditions like those of the high-energy bunch compressor of the Next Linear Collider (NLC), in which bunches as short as...

We present a diagnostics suite and analyze techniques for setting up the longitudinal beam dynamics in International Linear Collider einjectors and e+ and ebunch compressors. Techniques to measure the first order moments and recover the first order longitudinal transfer map of the injector’s intricate bunching scheme are presented. Coherent transition radiation diagnostics needed to measure and...
متن کاملControlling Multi-Bunches by a Fast Phase Switching
In linear accelerators with two or more bunches the beam loading of one bunch will influence the energy and energy spread the following bunches. This can be corrected by quickly changing the phase of a travelling wave structure, so that each bunch recieves a slightly different net phase. At the SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) three bunches, two (e+, e-) for the high energy collisions and one (e--sca...
