Operational Experience with Resonantly Extracted Beams*
نویسندگان
چکیده
The MIT-Bates Linear Accelerator has completed a major nuclear physics experiment using high duty factor electron beam resonantly extracted from the South Hall Ring. Average currents up to 8 μA at energies from 569 to 950 MeV were delivered to the new Out Of Plane Spectrometer System, with typical duty factors of 60%. Throughput efficiencies, measured as the ratio of beam current injected into the ring to that delivered to experiment, were 80–90%. The extraction process was repeated at a 600 Hz repetition rate, giving storage times much shorter than the beam damping time. Thus, beam dynamics were exclusively in a transient state. Details of the operational experience, including important aspects of beam set-up, on-line monitoring, and maintenance, are presented.

Collisions of Resonantly Coupled round Beams at the Cornell Electron-positron Storage Ring (cesr)
As a first step toward testing the proposed “Möbius” scheme[1], we used existing CESR elements to collide round, rather than flat, beams. The tune shift parameter, , was inferred from the beam profiles and current, was compared to the tune shift of the coherent beam-beam mode, and was corroborated by luminosity measurement. Values of up to 0:09 were achieved without significant lifetime reduction.
متن کاملNonmaximally-entangled-state quantum photolithography
Many previous works on quantum photolithography are based on maximally-entangled states (MES). In this paper, we generalize the MES quantum photolithography to the case where two light beams share a N-photon nonmaximally-entangled state. we investigate the correlations between quantum entanglement and quantum photolithography. It is shown that for nonlocal entanglement between the two light bea...
متن کاملCommissioning of Ramp and Squeeze at the Lhc
The energy ramp and the betatron squeeze at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are particularly critical operational phases that involve the manipulation of beams well above the safe limit for damage of accelerator components. In particular, the squeeze is carried out at top energy with reduced quench limit of superconducting magnets and reduced aperture in the triplet quadrupoles. In 2010, t...
متن کاملResonant mixing of optical orbital and spin angular momentum by using chiral silicon nanosphere clusters.
We present an in-depth analysis of the resonant intermixing between optical orbital and spin angular momentum of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams, mediated by chiral clusters made of silicon nanospheres. In particular, we establish a relationship between the spin and orbital quantum numbers characterizing the LG beam and the order q of the rotation symmetry group 𝒞q of the cluster of nanospheres fo...
