Beam Induced Heating of the Sps Fast Pulsed Magnets
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fast pulsed magnets with ferrite yokes are used in CERN’s SPS accelerator for beam injection, extraction and excitation for tune measurements. The impedance of the ferrite structures can provoke significant beam induced heating, especially for beams with high peak currents as for LHC operation, even beyond the Curie temperature. The expected heating in the different kicker systems for various operational modes is compared with beam measurements. Estimates of the beam induced power have been derived from measured beam spectra. A fast extraction kicker system has recently been equipped with a cooling system. The measured cooling performance is compared with data from laboratory setups and numerical simulations.

Unified Pulsed Laser Range Finder and Velocimeter using Ultra-Fast Time-To-Digital Converter
In this paper, we present a high accuracy laser range finder and velocimeter using ultra-fast time-to-digital converter (TDC). The system operation is based on the measuring the round-trip time of a narrow laser pulse. A low-dark current high-speed PIN photodiode is used to detect the triggered laser beam and to produce start signal. The pulsed laser diode generates 45W optical power at 30ns du...
متن کاملInjection and extraction magnets: kicker magnets
Each stage of an accelerator system has a limited dynamic range and therefore a chain of stages is required to reach high energy. A combination of septa and kicker magnets is frequently used to inject and extract beam from each stage. The kicker magnets typically produce rectangular field pulses with fast riseand/or fall-times, however, the field strength is relatively low. To compensate for th...

A new East Fast-Extraction System is under construction in the SPS, to supply particles with a maximum batch length of 7.8 μs and 10.5 μs to the LHC and to CNGS (CERN Neutrino to Gran Sasso), respectively. The extraction septum magnets actually used at the SPS have been designed for slow extraction over several seconds and have large cooling and electrical power demands. A fast system of only 2...
