Quadrupole Shunt Experiments at SPEAR*
نویسندگان
چکیده
As part of a program to align and stabilize the SPEAR storage ring, a switchable shunt resistor was installed on each quadrupole to bypass a small percentage of the magnet current. The impact of a quadrupole shunt is to move the electron beam orbit in proportion to the off-axis beam position at the quadrupole and to shift the betatron tune. Initially, quadrupole shunts in SPEAR were used to position the electron beam in the center of the quadrupoles This provided readback offsets for nearby beam position monitors, and helped to steer the photon beams with low-amplitude corrector currents. The shunt-induced tune shift measurements were then processed in MAD to derive a lattice model.

High-Efficiency Resonant Cavity Quadrupole Moment Monitor
Measurement of the beam quadrupole moment at several locations can be used to reconstruct the beam envelope and emittance parameters. The measurements can be performed in a non-intercepting way using a set of quadrupole-mode cavities. We present a cavity design with an optimized quadrupole moment shunt impedance. The cavity properties can be characterized using a wire test method to insure symm...
متن کاملBeam-based Magnetic Alignment of the Final Focus Test Beam*
In order to optimize tunability and backgrounds in linear collider final focus systems, it is necessary to align strong quadrupole and sextupole magnets with beam-based measurements. Algorithms for alignment have been used successfully on the Final Focus Test Beam (FFTB) beamline at SLAC. Quadrupole magnets were aligned using a shunt technique, with resolutions from 50 microns down to 700 nanom...
متن کاملExtraction of Lie Map from Realistic 3d Magnetic Field Data*
We present a method to extract the Lie map from the realistic magnetic field data of arbitrary magnet. The multi-particle tracking results are fitted into Taylor maps, which can be factorized into a Lie map by using DragtFinn's method [1]. This method is validated by comparing against the COSY-infinity code [2] for a soft-edge quadrupole model. Examples of extracting the symplectic maps for the...

متن کاملSuperconducting H-mode Structures for Medium Energy Beams
Room temperature IH-type drift tube structures are used at different places now for the acceleration of ions with mass over charge ratios up to 65 and velocities between 0.016 c and 0.1 c. These structures have a high shunt impedance and allow the acceleration of very intense beams at high accelerating gradients. The overall power consumption of room temperature IHmode structures is comparable ...
