  1. Experiments on EMMA Requiring Minimal or No Modifications J. Scott Berg Brookhaven National Laboratory 18 March 2010

  2. Outline of Existing Experiments • Find linear parameters vs. energy • Adjust lattice to desired configuration • Accelerate beam from 10 to 20 MeV • Scan longitudinal phase space • Scan longitudinal parameters (frequency/voltage) • Scan transverse phase space • Find variation in fixed-energy parameters • Study how acceleration changes with amplitude

  3. Outline of Existing Experiments • Introduce errors, look at effects • Set up additional lattice configurations • Different tune range • Effects related to resonances • Look for variation in emittance growth and beam loss • Verify expected effects on longitudinal dynamics • Different location of time of flight minimum • Look at variation in longitudinal dynamics • Expect similar behavior in transverse: verify

  4. Single Resonance Crossing • Acceleration over a limited range • Cross an individual resonance slowly • Use a low voltage, vary to change rate • Reduced range serpentine acceleration • Only works near ToF minimum • Oscillation around stable fixed point • Study fixed energy behavior near resonance • Diagnostic need: accurate emittance

  5. Measurement of Momentum Spread • Chromaticity: beam signal decays • Signal shape depends on momentum distribution • Reconstruct distribution • Take this data anyhow • Compare to momentum distribution measured elsewhere

  6. More Discrete Acceleration • Machida: orbit distortion from fewer cavities • Turn some cavities off and reproduce

  7. Space Charge/Beam Loading • Basic design is to look at single-particle dynamics • Could look at weak current-dependent effects • Beam loading: just push current up • See effect on acceleration, try to correct for it • Space charge: make beam small if possible • Measure incoherent tune spread • Look at effect on acceleration

  8. Diagnostics for Experiments • We proposed many diagnostics, but • Couldn’t afford all of them • Identify diagnostics needs/desires for experiments • Helps us to • Justify request • Prioritize what to ask for/buy

  9. Final Remarks • Thanks to Shinji, Eberhard, Rob for suggestions • Hopefully I didn’t miss anyone • Continue making suggestions as you get ideas
