EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH CERN/PS 2001-061 Comparison of Simulation Codes for the Beam Dynamics of Low-Energy Ions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Results are presented of the simulation of low–energy ion dynamics with three different codes: KOBRA, IGUN and CPO. To share work between different codes one needs to be confident that they agree. For test cases, good agreement was found between the codes and analytical solutions. Where possible, results have been compared to experimental data from the CERN Laser Ion Source. These simulations are in general agreement with the data of the real beam line. c © The following article has been submitted to Review of Scientific Instruments. After it is published, it will be found at http://ojps.aip.org/rsio/. Presented at ICIS2001, Oakland, California, USA 3-7 September 2001 Geneva, Switzerland October 2001

Beam parameters in CERN’s Proton Synchrotron (PS) accelerator must be controlled (and measured) with tighter precision than ever before to meet the stringent requirements of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) programme. A non-destructive beam profile measurement system would be a valuable diagnostic tool. To this end, we measured N2 and Xe gas scintillation absolute cross-sections and lifetimes fo...

This note presents a possible design for the transfer line between the proton driver accumulator and compressor rings of the CERN Neutrino Factory. Based on the layout of the two rings presented in Ref. [1], a possible configuration for the transfer line is studied. The geometry and the optics of such a transport system are discussed in details.

In order to set up a powerful proton source for a future Neutrino Factory, increasing at the same time the flux of protons available for new and existing facilities, CERN is studying a 2.2 GeV superconducting Hlinac for 4 MW beam power, called SPL. The superconducting part of this linac covers the energy range from 120 MeV to 2.2 GeV. Three sections made of 352 MHz cavities with nominal ß of 0....

A profile monitor is described that makes use of a low-intensity and low-energy ion beam to measure the transverse profile of a dense proton beam of small dimensions. Three techniques are considered based on the use of ion beams having a pencil, curtain, or cylindrical shape. The detector is almost non-interceptive for the proton beam and does not introduce disturbances in the machine environme...
متن کاملEuropean Organization for Nuclear Research Cern – Ps Division Cern/ps 2001-006 (ae) a Low-β Insertion in the Ps-sps Transfer Line to Limit Emittance Blow-up Due to Stripping of Lead Ions for Lhc
This paper presents an insertion to reduce the emittance blow-up due to the final stripping (Pb → Pb) by a factor of four, to ∆ε∗ ≈ 0.2 μm instead of ≈ 0.8 μm measured at the present set up. Reduction to such a small value is motivated by the tight emittance budget for the LHC which calls for a (normalised, r.m.s.) emittance ε∗ = 1.5 μm of the lead ion beams at collision energy. Cost estimates ...
