Pepperpot Emittance Calculations Simon Jolly Imperial College 29th August 2007
Pepperpot Emittance Measurement • As with Slit-Slit scanner, pepperpot emittance measurement is sensitive to cut level. • Have to impose some sort of cut due to inherent 100 count noise from camera and background noise. • Scintillator degrades over time: can we specify cut level and scintillator lifetime to give consistent emittance measurement?

Pepperpot vs. Slit-Slit: 11kV Y Emittance 1.07 p mm mrad Simon Jolly, Imperial College
Pepperpot vs. Slit-Slit Pre-Conclusions • Shape and distribution broadly the same, but much broader for pepperpot measurement. • Emittance values higher for pepperpot single pixel measurement compared to slit-slit. • Current cut is 119 counts: can we improve shape/emittance values with improved cut?

Cut Variation Conclusions • Variation in cut level produces clear change in emittances. • Currently using new cut level of 250 counts for emittance measurements. • More analysis needed into cut level as a function of image intensity. • Scintillator lifetime ~1 hour integrated beam time: more tests with Ce-Quartz needed.
