Measurements and Analysis of the Transverse Beam Transfer Function (BTF) at the SIS 18 Synchrotron
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Beam Transfer Function (BTF) belongs to the most powerful beam diagnostics methods, providing direct measurements of beam stability properties, impedances and various beam and lattice parameters. Here, we report about the first measurement of the transverse BTF and the corresponding stability diagrams in SIS 18. By comparing experimental BTF and stability diagrams with theoretical expressions, the betatron tune, chromaticity and momentum spread are determined, origin and type of Landau damping is identified.

Studies of coherent transverse beam stability for the FAIR synchrotrons
Collective instabilities are a potential limiting factor for the performance of the FAIR rings at GSI Darmstadt. Here, we discuss results of numerical investigations for SIS 100 and for the SIS 18 Upgrade together with experimental investigations in the SIS 18 synchrotron. Within our experimental investigations, the first measurement of the transverse Beam Transfer Function (BTF) in SIS 18 were...
متن کاملNonlinear Longitudinal Beam Response Measurements at the ALS
We report on longitudinal beam-transfer function BTF measurements at the Advanced Light Source ALS for large phase-modulation amplitudes. As the amplitude of the swept-frequency excitation is increased, the dipole beam response around the synchrotron frequency develops a notch in the amplitude response with a corresponding sharp jump in the phase response. These observations are explained by a ...
متن کاملTransverse Schottky and BTF Measurements in Intense Ion Beams in SIS18
The intense beams to be accelerated by SIS18 for FAIR will be affected by collective effects. Due to the low energy in SIS18 the beams will be particularly prone to space charge effects. Since the dynamics of such beams is not fully understood collective effects are subject to our investigation. Here we present transverse Schottky and beam transfer function (BTF) measurements that were performe...
متن کاملEmittance Measurements at GSI UNILAC
At GSI heavy ion beams are accelerated by the UNIversal Linear ACcelerator UNILAC (see Fig. 1) and the heavy ion synchrotron SIS 18. Heavy ion beams are delivered to the High Current Injector (HSI) from two different ion source terminals: Penning type (PIG) sources for low and MUCIS/ MEVVA type sources for high beam intensities. An RFQ and two IH structures accelerate the ions from 2.2 keV/u up...
متن کاملSimulation and observation of the space charge induced multi-stream instability of linac micro bunches in the SIS-18 synchrotron
For the upgrade of the SIS-18 synchrotron it is of importance that the initial momentum spread of the injected coasting beam does not exceed the limit set by the rf bucket area. The lower limit is determined by microwave instabilities which cause a sudden increase of the momentum spread below a threshold momentum spread. For a coasting Ar beam in the SIS-18 the measured momentum spread as a fun...
