Compton Scattering Techniques for the Measurement of the Transverse Beam Size at Future Linear Collider

چکیده
(Dated: June 3, 2001) At several locations of the beam delivery system (BDS) of a future linear collider (FLC), beam spot sizes ranging from several hundreds to a few micrometers have to be measured. The large demagnification of the beam in the BDS and the high beam power puts extreme conditions on any measuring device. With conventional techniques at their operational limit in FLC scenarios, new methods for the detection of the transverse beam size have to be developed. Laser based techniques are capable of measuring high power beams with sizes in the micrometer range. General aspects and critical issues of a generic device based on Compton scattering are outlined and specific solutions proposed.

Determining the accuracy of measuring the thickness of steel plates using Compton scattering method
When there is limitation access to one side of the structure in industry, one of the best methods for thickness measurements is the Compton scattering. In this paper, due to the statistical behavior of dispersed beam counting, we discuss the accuracy of the measurement for steel thickness. Using the experimental method and comparing it with MCNP simulation code, the accuracy is obtained less th...

متن کاملStacking Simulations for Compton Positron Sources of Future Linear Colliders
The Compton positron source of a future linear collider must obtain the target bunch population by accumulating a large number of positron packets, arriving either in a number of bursts from a ‘Compton ring’, with intermediate damping of the scattering electron beam, or quasicontinually from a ‘Compton energy recovery linac’. We present simulation results for the longitudinal stacking of Compto...
متن کاملBeam Energy Measurement at Linear Colliders Using Spin Precession
Linear collider designs foresee some bends of about 5-10 mrad. The spin precession angle of one TeV electrons on 10 mrad bend is 23.2 rad and it changes proportional to the energy. Measurement of the spin direction using Compton scattering of laser light on electrons before and after the bend allows determining the beam energy with an accuracy about of 10. In this paper the principle of the met...
