We provide a detailed description of model and its computational algorithm for the secondary electron emission process. The is based on broad phenomenological fit to data secondary-emission yield emitted-energy spectrum. two sets values parameters by fitting our particular sets, one copper other stainless steel.
Present and future accelerators' performances may be limited by the electron cloud (EC) effect. The EC formation evolution are determined wall-surface properties of accelerator vacuum chamber. We present measurements total secondary yield (SEY) related energy distribution curves electrons as a function incident-electron energy. Particular attention has been paid to emission process due very low-energy primary ($<20\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}$). It is shown that SEY approaches unity...
The effect of an artificially enhanced rough surface on the secondary electron yield (SEY) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Analytical studies triangular rectangular grooved surfaces show connection between characteristic parameters a given geometry to SEY reduction. strong magnetic field is also discussed. samples have been measured results agree with particle simulations using Monte Carlo approach.
In the framework of <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">euro</i> SIG project and within an international collaboration between CNAO, CERN, INFN, MedAustron, design a novel gantry for hadron therapy based on superconducting magnets downstream scanning system has been undertaken. The choice placing last dipole plays crucial role in overall layout gantry, having direct impact its radius, weight, cost. proposed considers two separate...
ATF2 is a final-focus test beam line which aims to focus the low emittance from ATF damping ring vertical size of about 37 nm and demonstrate nanometer level stability. Several advanced diagnostics feedback tools are used. In December 2008, construction installation were completed commissioning started, supported by an international team Asian, European, U.S. scientists. The present status first results described.
This report details the present status of Accelerator design for SuperB Project. It is one four separate progress reports that, taken collectively, describe made on Project since publication Conceptual Design Report in 2007 and Proceedings Workshop VI Valencia 2008.
We have applied our simulation code POSINST to evaluate the contribution growth rate of electron cloud instability in proton storage rings. In particular, we present here recent results for main features ring Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge, and updated Proton Storage Ring Los Alamos. A key ingredient model is a detailed description secondary emission process, including refined emitted energy spectrum, three components yield, namely, true secondary, rediffused backscattered components.
The effect of electron conditioning on commercially aluminium alloys 1100 and 6063 were investigated. Contrary to the assumption that conditioning, if performed long enough, can reduce stabilize SEY low values ($\leq 1.3$, value many pure elements), did not go lower than 1.8. In fact, it reincreases with continued exposure dose.
Clouds of low energy electrons in the vacuum beam pipes accelerators positively charged particle beams present a serious limitation for operation at high currents. Furthermore, it is difficult to probe their density over substantial lengths pipe. We have developed novel technique directly measure electron cloud via phase shift induced TE wave transmitted section accelerator and used average 50 m positron ring PEP-II collider Stanford Linear Accelerator Center.

An adequate dose of photoelectrons, accelerated by low-intensity proton bunches and hitting the LHC beam screen wall, will substantially reduce secondary emission avoid fast build-up an electron cloud for nominal beam. The conditioning period liner surface can be considerably shortened thanks to electrons, provided heat load stability kept under control; example this may possible using a special beam, including satellite with intensity 15-20% bunch spacing one or two RF wavelengths. Based on...
