Beam Dynamics Simulation for the Ctf3 Drive-beam Accelerator

چکیده

A new CLIC Test Facility (CTF3) at CERN will serve to study the drive beam generation for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC). CTF3 has to accelerate a 3.5A electron beam in almost fully-loaded structures. The pulse contains more than 2000 bunches, one in every second RF bucket, and has a length of more than one μs. Different options for the lattice of the drive-beam accelerator are presented, based on FODO-cells and triplets as well as solenoids. The transverse stability is simulated, including the effects of beam jitter, alignment and beam-based correction.

Simulation Package based on PLACET

The program PLACET is used to simulate transverse and longitudinal beam effects in the main linac, the drive-beam accelerator and the drive-beam decelerators of CLIC, as well as in the linac of CTF3. It provides different models of accelerating and decelerating structures, linear optics and thin multipoles. Several methods of beam-based alignment, including emittance tuning bumps and feedbacks,...

Beam Dynamics Studies for a Ctf3 Proposed Injector*

A CTF3 drive beam injector for the nominal stage is proposed, which includes thermionic DC gun, three SubHarmonic Bunchers (SHBs), one prebuncher, one 6-cell travelling wave buncher and two accelerating structures. Its beam dynamics is simulated by PARMELA. It is shown that all important parameters, e.g. satellite charge, bunch length and normalized transverse emittance can be met with the desi...

Commissioning Status of the Decelerator Test Beam Line in Ctf3

The CLIC Test Facility (CTF3) at CERN was constructed by the CTF3 collaboration to study the feasibility of the concepts for a compact linear collider. The test beam line (TBL) recently added to the CTF3 machine was designed to study the CLIC decelerator beam dynamics and 12 GHz power production. The beam line consists of a FODO lattice with high precision BPM’s and quadrupoles on movers for pr...

Phil: a Test Beamline at Lal*

In the framework of a European contract*, LAL is in charge of the construction of one photo-injector for the drive beam linac of the CLIC Test Facility 3 [1] at CERN. This contract together with national funds allowed LAL to build a home test accelerator, PHIL, with the same photo-injector as for CTF3. The goal is to undergo experiments on the design and technology of advanced RF guns, to devel...

CERN – European Organization for Nuclear Research European Laboratory for Particle Physics

The paper describes the Beam Position Measurement hardware developed for the drive beam linac of the CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3). The system, capable of measuring both, the beam position and absolute current, is a part of an R&D facility and should therefore be flexible to work in unforeseen conditions. For that reason, its operation can be changed gradually from completely automatic, controlle...
