Funding: This work has been partially supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation under Project ENE2009-11230 The IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator will be a 9 MeV, 125 mA CW deuteron accelerator which aims to validate the technology that will be used in the future IFMIF accelerator. In the Medium Energy Beam Transport line (MEBT) connecting the RFQ and the MEBT, non-interceptive Beam Position Monitors pickups (MBPMs) will measure the transverse position and phase in order to maximize the transport efficiency of the beamline. The response of the MBPMs must be optimized for a beam current for 5 MeV, and a peak beam current of 125 mA. Due to the lack of space in the MEBT, the MBPMs will be located inside the magnets. The MBPMs will have to fit inside the magnets without perturbing the magnetic field. In this contribution, the electromagnetic and mechanical design of the MBPM will be presented. In addition, in order to validate and characterize all the BPMs type of IFMIF/EVEDA once they are manufactured, a wire test bench has been constructed and verified at CIEMAT. The design and validation results of the test bench will be discussed. |
