The pulsing system consists of a low energy single gap gridded buncher and two high energy choppers. Buncher and choppers need to be set in phase and amplitude for maximum efficiency. The LINAC encompasses twelve lead tin-plated Split Loop Resonators (SLR).

The technique allows to set up correct phase by observing the displacement of beam profile versus phase shift of the last phase locked resonator. The determination of beam pulse characteristics are based on X-ray detection produced by beam striking a Ta target. In this paper the HIAF set up for pulsed beam diagnostics with sub nanosecond time resolution is described. The system has demonstrated simplicity of operation and high reliability.

The ANU Heavy Ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) comprises a 15 MV electrostatic accelerator (NEC 14UD) followed by a superconducting LINAC booster. The pulsing system consists of a low energy single gap gridded buncher and two high energy choppers. Buncher and choppers need to be set in phase and amplitude for maximum efficiency. The LINAC encompasses twelve lead tin-plated Split Loop Resonators (SLR). Each SLR, as well as the superbuncher and time energy lens, needs to be individually tuned in phase and amplitude for correct operation. The HIAF pulsing system is based on a few techniques. The first one utilises a U-bend at the end of the LINAC. One special wide Beam Profile Monitor (BPM) is installed after the 90 degrees magnet. The technique allows to set up correct phase by observing the displacement of beam profile versus phase shift of the last phase locked resonator. The determination of beam pulse characteristics are based on X-ray detection produced by beam striking a Ta target. In this paper the HIAF set up for pulsed beam diagnostics with sub nanosecond time resolution is described. The system has demonstrated simplicity of operation and high reliability.
