It is particularly useful if one can continuously measure the beam current without disturbing the beam. We report here on test experiments for an Integrating Current Transformer （ICT） used to measure fast extraction beams from the HIRFL-CSR main ring （CSRm）. The laboratory tests and beam intensity measurement results are presented in this paper. The influence of the kicker noise is also analyzed.展开更多

As part of SSC-Linac, the LEBT （low energy beam transport） consists of seven solenoids, four quadrupoles, a bending magnet and an extra multi-harmonic buncher. The total length of this segment is about 7 meters. The beam dynamics in this LEBT has been studied using three-dimensional PIC （particle-in-cell） code BEAMPATH. The simulation results show that the continuous beam from the ion source is first well analyzed by a charge-to-mass selection system, and the beam of the selected charge-to-mass ratio is then efficiently pre-bunched by a multi-harmonic buncher and optimally matched into the RFQ （radio frequency quadrupole） for further acceleration. The principles and effects of the solenoid collimation channel are discussed, and it could limit the beam emittance by changing the aperture size.展开更多
