MOOC02 | Cavity BPM System for ATF2 | 23 |
|
||
In this paper we summarise our 2-year experience operating the Cavity Beam Position Monitor (CBPM) system at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) in KEK. The system currently consists of 41 C and S-band CBPMs and is the main diagnostic tool for the new ATF2 extraction beamline. We concentrate on issues related to the scale of the system and also consider long-term effects, most of which are undetectable or insignificant in smaller experimental prototype systems. We consistently show sub-micron BPM resolutions and week-to-week scale drifts of an order of 1%. | ||

I propose a mode-selective waveguide Beam Position Monitor (BPM). It uses waveguide couplers arranged at the beampipe to create boundary conditions similar to those in slot-coupled cavity BPMs. This structure allows to couple to the differential waveguide mode co-propagating with the beam, and reject the usually much stronger monopole component of the field. As the full dynamic range of the processing electronics can be used for position measurements, and a waveguide is a native high-pass filter, such a BPM is expected to outperform stripline and button BPMs in terms of both spacial and time resolution. In this paper I give some details on the basic principle and the first simulation results and discuss possible ways of signal processing. | ||
