3d Density Scans of a Supersonic Gas Jet for Beam Profile Monitor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, we have developed a novel beam profile monitor based on a supersonic gas jet. It can be applied to some extreme situation while other methods are not applicable such as for the high intensity and energy beams with destructive power and for the short life beam which requires minimum interference. The resolution of this monitor depends on the jet thickness and homogeneity, and thus we developed a movable gauge to investigate the gas jet distribution in a 3D manner. In this paper, we will present the measurement of the distribution of the gas jet and discuss the future improvement for the jet design.

Experimental Results of a Gas Jet Based Beam Profile Monitor*
A novel, least invasive beam profile monitor based on a supersonic gas jet has been developed by the QUASAR Group at the Cockcroft Institute, UK. It allows the measurement of beam profiles for various particle beams across a range of energies and vacuum levels. A finely collimated neutral gas jet, produced by a nozzle and several skimmers, is injected into the vacuum chamber perpendicular to th...
متن کاملCharacterizing Supersonic Gas Jet-based Beam Profile Monitors
The next generation of high power, high intensity accelerators requires non-invasive diagnostics, particularly beam profile monitors. Residual gas-based diagnostics such as ionization beam profile or beam induced fluorescence monitors have been used to replace commonly used scintillating screens. At the Cockcroft Institute an alternative technique using a supersonic gas jet, shaped into a 45 cu...

متن کاملAnomalous atomic hydrogen shock pattern in a supersonic plasma Jet
A two-photon laser-induced fluorescence study on the transport of ground-state atomic hydrogen in a supersonic plasma jet, generated from an Ar-H (2) mixture, reveals an unexpected shock pattern. Whereas both the axial-velocity profile and the temperature profile of hydrogen atoms along the jet centerline can be interpreted in terms of a supersonic expansion of an Ar-H gas mixture, the H-atom d...
