Scanning Electron Beam Profile Monitor
نویسنده
چکیده
A scanning beam profile monitor is described that was developed for use along the Stanford two-mile linear accelerator. The maximum beam loss due to scattering caused by this monitor can be made to be a small fraction of that which would be caused by a Cerenkov radiator or scintillating screen.

Laser-based Profile Monitor for Electron Beams*
High performance TeV energy electron / positron colliders (LC) are the first machines to require online, non-invasive beam size monitors for micron and submicron for beam phase space optimization. Typical beam densities in the LC are well beyond the threshold density for single pulse melting and vaporization of any material, making conventional wire scanners ineffective. Using a finely focused,...
متن کاملHigh-Brightness Electron Beam Diagnostics at the ATF*
The Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) is a dedicated user facility for accelerator physicists. Its design is optimized to explore laser acceleration and coherent radiation production. To characterize the lowemittance, picoseconds long electron beam produced by the ATF's photocathode RF gun, we have installed electron beam profile monitors for transverse emittance measurement, and devel...
متن کاملA Turn-by-turn Vertical Profile Monitor
A turn-by-turn vertical beam profile monitor has been developed at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). The instrument optically images the vertical beam distribution with an array of optical fibers that transport visible synchrotron radiation to an array of photo-multiplier tubes. Each PMT signal is recorded by a turn-by-turn data acquisition system. With this instrument, we compare profi...
متن کاملAssessment of an Unshielded Electron Field Diode Dosimeter for Beam Scanning in Small- to Medium-Sized 6 MV Photon Fields
Introduction Radiotherapy planning systems require many percentage depth dose (PDD) and profile measurements and there are various dosimeters that can be used to obtain these scans. As dose perturbation is particularly troublesome in smaller photon fields, using a low-perturbation, unshielded electron field diode (EFD) in these fields is of interest. The aim of this work was to investigate the ...
متن کاملDesign of a Beam Size Monitor Using Fresnel Zone Plates
Measuring electron-beam sizes is very important to estimate horizontal and vertical emittances in lowemittance rings. The beam size monitor using Fresnel zone plates (FZPs) has been designed for the Super-SOR ring (a new name of the VSX ring), which is a thirdgeneration synchrotron light source being planned by the University of Tokyo. The monitor system has a structure of a long-distance x-ray...
