6 Linac - Specifications, Diagnostics, Optics SLS 100 MeV Pre Injector Layout Diagnostic description Except the Integrating Current Transformers (standard ICT monitors from Bergoz) all the diagnostics have been developed at PSI and optimised to cover the large dynamic range of the SLS pre injector. FCUP 1 (Coaxial Faraday Cup) transient beam meas. behind the gun at 90 KeV. bandwidth: >6 GHz can be moved into a beam with pneumatic actuators Gun, bunching section and first accelerating structure WCM 1 and WCM 2 (Wall Current Monitors) transient beam meas. behind the gun and in the transfer line at 100 MeV cut off: <100 khz bandwidth: ~4 GHz ICT 1 and ICT 2 (Integrating Current Transformers) beam transmission efficiency trough Linac resolution: <5% BPM (strip line Beam Position Monitors) mismatch design for high sensitivity and max. aperture for low current Top up mode SMs OPTICAL diagnostics six optical Screen Monitors (SM) have been used during the commissioning. All SM have been intensively used for fine beam alignment and focus optimisation. SM 5 and SM E have been used for emittance and energy spread measurements. two different monitors are installed in each SM station for high resolution measurements of the transverse beam parameters: a high sensitivity YAG:Ce detector for low current operation (charge < 1nC). an Al foil producing Optical Transition Radiation (OTR). all SM monitors can be moved into the beam with 3 stage pneumatic actuators. Beam specifications Goal: Fast injection into the SLS storage ring (up to 200 ma/min). Constraints: Narrow apertures of the innovative SLS booster synchrotron. Radiation protection limitations. Modes of operation: A single bunch mode (max. 1.5nC, 1ns). A variable multi bunch mode (max. 1.5 nc). In addition an optional low current mode is planned to perform a top up injection, keeping the mean current in the storage ring nearly constant. Max single bunch width 1ns Bunch train length µs Max Charge 1.5nC (both modes) Energy >100 MeV Pulse pulse energy stability <0.25% Relative energy spread <0.5% (rms.) Normalized emittance (1σ) <50 πmm mrad Single bunch purity <0.01 Repetition rate Hz, 10 Hz (max.) RF Frequency GHz Faults <1 fault/hour RF distribution Two 35MW pulsed klystrons, TH2100 from Thomson, are used to power the travelling wave bunchers and the accelerating structures. The power distribution between bunchers and section 1 is performed by means of two variable power splitters. The RF power needs for a 100 MeV operation are listed here below. 500 MHz prebuncher 500 W 4 cell buncher 2.7 MW 16 cell buncher 3.7 MW Accelerating section MW Accelerating section 2 18 MW Optics Low energy region (up to 10 MeV): 31 solenoids. Drift section at 50MeV: Quadrupole triplet to matches the beam through the second accelerating structure. Linac main components The electron source: A 90 kv triode gun with Pierce geometry. In the single bunch mode the cathode is pulsed with respect to the grid. In the multi bunch mode the grid is modulated at 500 MHz with respect to the cathode. The bunching section: SPB: 500 MHz sub harmonic pre buncher. TWB1: 4 cells travelling wave buncher (b=0.6, 2p/3). TWB2: 16 cells trav. wave buncher (b =0.95, 8p/9). Two travelling wave accelerating structures: Structures based on SBTF design (b=1, 2p/3, 5.2 m long). The transfer lines: To the beam dump. To the booster. Michael Böge 6
