  2. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin H- handling in the beam line Nov.15, 2004 A.Drozhdin The Project-X Ekin=8 GeV beam line consists of 6 sections: matching section between Linac and FODO lattice, amplitude collimation (3 cells without bending magnets), momentum collimation and jitter correction section (6 cells with dipoles), straight section is included for proper positioning of the Linac and beam line at the Fermilab site (6 cells), second part of momentum collimation (6 cells) and matching section between FODO lattice and Recycler Ring. The location of stripping foils and beam dumps are shown by a vertical bars directed down in in the bottom figure. Momentum collimation Amplitude collimation

  3. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin H- foil-stripping for beam collimation Particles passed through the foil (H+) An amplitude and momentum collimation is done by stripping of H- ions at the foil located upstream of the focusing quadrupole and then intercepting of Ho atoms and protons (H+) by the beam dump located in 5 m downstream of the focusing quadrupole. Dump 2 Dump 8 Without collimation With collimation

  4. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin H- stripping due to Blackbody radiation The Doppler Effect (top figure) shifts lab frame infrared photons (green curve) to energies (blue and magenta) in excess of the range where the cross section of photodetachment (red) is large. The stripping rate is increased by 3 order of magnitude with H- ions energy rise from 0.8 to 8 GeV (middle). The beam pipe temperature (bottom) lowered to liquid nitrogen temperature (77 K) permits to decrease the photodetachment rate by 3 order of magnitude. Ref. H.C.Bryant and G.H.Herling, Journal of Modern Optics, 53, 45 (2006). Blackbody Radiation spectrum Photodetachment cross section Blackbody at 300 K is 1/L=5.7e-07 1/m for Ekin=8 GeV

  5. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin H- stripping due to residual gas The total electron loss cross section can be expressed as: The total electron loss cross section for H, He, N, O and Ar from the measurements and scaled to 8 GeV are presented in theTable The loss rate due to collision with i-th species of the residual gas is here and The measured residual gas pressure in the FNAL A150 beam line, and calculated loss rates are shown in Table pstrip = Fef.

  6. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin Magnetic field stripping When an H- ion with momentum P moves in magnetic field B, it experi-ences an electric field E that is the Lorentz-transform of the magnetic field in the lab system: The stripping of H- ions by the magnetic field (Lorentz stripping) was calculated using (M.A.Furman) equation for ion's lifetime in its own rest frame system. In a range of E=1.87-7.02 MV/cm A=3.073e-14 s-MV/cm C=44.14 MV/cm. The mean decay length in the lab system is Pc=0.954263 GeV The stripping probability was calculated as Pc=2.7844GeV Pc=8.8889 GeV Ref. G.M.Stinson et al., Nucl. Instr. & Meth. 74, 333 (1969) The rates of stripping in the Pc=8.8889 GeV beam line elements Blackbody at 300 K: 5.7e-07 1/m Residual gas at P=1e-08 torr: 1.8e-08 1/m Magnetic field at 500 Gauss: 6.4e-10 1/m A sum of stripping probabilities at each element of beam line for every particle of the beam was calculated using STRUCT.

  7. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin Foil stripping injection The HBC2 magnet should have low magnetic field (~500Gauss) to eliminate H- stripping by magnetic field . Painting injection scheme: K1-K4 – painting kicker-magnets HBC1-HBC4 – bump magnets for circulating beam displacement at the foil to the injection trajectory Foil – for H- stripping to H+ Ho Dump – for unstripped beam absorbing

  8. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin The removal from the foil may be reduced from 37 mm to 15 mm for these beam parameters if space in the accelerator is not restricted Injected beam at the foil Circulating beam at the central orbit Circulating beam after painting Injected and circulating beam locations at the foil during painting. The transverse dimentions of the foil are 14 X 18 mm.

  11. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin Lifetime of Stark States Hydrogen Atom in Magnetic Field Calculation and Estimation of Losses at Stripping Injection W. Chou, A.Drozhdin, Oct. 2004 The energy level of the hydrogen atom n is split in the uniform electric field into n(n+1)/2 sublevels [1]. Each sublevel can be characterized by a set of parabolic quantum numbers n1, n2, m such that the principal quantum number n = n1 + n2 + m + 1. The value of Г is inversely proportional to the lifetime of the atomic state. An Asymptotic formulae for Гis obtained by R.Damburg and V.Kolosov, see ref. at the next page: (8) (9) where , F - electric field strength, Eo - energy level. Expanding R in power series of F, we obtain

  13. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin Lifetime T=1/Г of Stark states hydrogen atoms in magnetic field corresponding to electric field for hydrogen atoms of Pc=8.8889 GeV was calculated using equation 11. Lifetime is in a laboratory frame. Pc=8.8889 GeV An example for magnetic field of 0.15 T: The life time of Ho atoms with n=3 is T=2e-09 sec. An average path length for this particle will be S=3e+08m/s*2e-09s>0.6m. These particles may survive or will be stripped to protons along the magnet, and may produce losses in the accelerator. Particles with n>3 will be stripped to protons very shortly at the entrance of this magnet and they will not increase the emittance of the circulating beam.

  16. May 29, 2012 A.Drozhdin A stripping probability of Pc=8.88889 GeV Ho Stark states hydrogen atoms in the B=1.2T bump-magnet HBC3: Atoms with n>1 pass less than 3mm, they will be stripped very shortly and will go to the circulating beam without emittance increase. The life time of Ho atoms with n=1 is >100m. These atoms are survive and will go to the beam dump. If the stripping efficiency is 99% (at foil thicknes of 500μg/cm2), the power load to the dump is 0.9% of injected beam power. B=1.2T B=0.055T B=1.2T
