A minimally invasive transverse beam profile monitor based on supersonic gas curtain technology and beam-induced fluorescence has been developed demonstrated. The concept presented can be used to measure both the of proton in Large Hadron Collider (LHC) concentricity electron beams LHC hollow lens. In this Letter, performance such a for low energy is discussed, which paves way its wider implementation.
In the present work, we report an experimental method to measure density and distribution of a supersonic molecular beam used for charged particle profile monitoring. The in this monitor was range 1014–1017 molecules/m3. vacuum performance such system using beam-induced fluorescence mode discussed. successful measurement parameters paves way future applications monitors machines as LHC proton therapy accelerators.
A beam gas curtain (BGC) monitor has been designed to obtain information about the relative position between LHC proton and hollow electron lens through a minimally invasive process. Its working principle relies on intersecting path of both beams with supersonic curtain, introduced transversely into beamline, produce fluorescence signal. As an intermediate project stage (phase II), preliminary version BGC installed beamline. To ensure successful integration subsequent operation under...
