Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) is emitted when a charged particle crosses the interface between two media with different dielectric properties. It has become a standard tool for beam imaging and transverse beam size measurements. At the KEK Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2), OTR is used at the beginning of the final focus system to measure a micrometre beam size using the decrease in visibility of the OTR Point Spread Function (PSF). In order to study and improve the resolution of the optical system, a novel simulation tool has been developed in order to characterize the PSF in detail. Based on the physical optic propagation mode of ZEMAX, the propagation of the OTR electric field can be simulated very precisely up to the image plane, taking into account aberrations and diffraction coming through the designed optical system. This contribution will show the results of measurements performed after a first improvement of the ATF2 OTR optical design to confirm the very high resolution of the imaging system and the performance of this simulation tool. | |||

Funding: This work is supported by Japan-U.S. cooperative program . A streak camera with two dimensional sweep function can measure the trend of the longitudinal beam profile in the ring. In the case of the multi-bunch measurement, the different bunch profile sit on same timing, thus, we can not distinguish the behavior of each bunch. We have developed a trigger circuit to measure the bunch-by-bunch longitudinal beam profile, which uses non integer sweep frequency for the acceleration frequency. The bunch profile of each bunch sit on different position in this measurement. We observed the increment of the synchrotron oscillation amplitude from the first bunch to the 20th bunch in the KEK-ATF Damping Ring by using this system. This paper describes the hardware and the measurement results. |
