MOPD27 | A Sensitive Resonant Schottky Pick-Up for the ESR Storage Ring at GSI | 107 |
|
||
A cavity-like Schottky detector for the heavy ion storage ring ESR at GSI is presented. It works at resonant frequencies around 245 MHz, its loaded Q value is 511, and its loaded R/Q value is roughly 55 Ohms. It features both a very good sensitivity even for beams with single circulating ions and the possibility to take valuable spectra in short time. A few experiments with the new device are presented which show clearly that the device offers new experimental opportunities, both for accelerator diagnostics and nuclear physics experiments. A similar device will be built into the CSRe storage ring at IMP. | ||
