MOPWA023	Preserving Information of the Three Spatial Electron Beam Dimensions in One Streak Camera Measurement	operation, electron, synchrotron, photon	144
	M.T. Switka, W. Hillert ELSA, Bonn, Germany
	Funding: Work funded by the DFG within SFB/TRR16 At the pulse stretcher ring ELSA, a streak camera is used for the analysis of visible synchrotron radiation. It functions as fast time resolving beam diagnostic apparatus capable of visualizing dynamics down to the picosecond time range. The optical beamline splits the photon beam and projects the electron beam's image onto the streak camera with transversely perpendicular orientation and slight displacement, thereby providing simultaneous imaging of both transverse planes. Thus, the information of bunch and beam dynamics in three dimensions is preserved and can be observed in slow sweep or synchroscan operation. Characteristics and exemplary measurements, demonstrating the capabilities and limits of this technique, are presented.

MOPJE073	The Extreme Beams Initiative in EuCARD-2	collider, polarization, linac, hadron	483
	G. Franchetti, J. Struckmeier GSI, Darmstadt, Germany K. Aulenbacher IKP, Mainz, Germany F. Zimmermann CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	EuCARD-2 is an Integration Activity on accelerator R&D co-funded within the European Union’s 7th Framework Programme. The Extreme Beams (XBEAM) network of EuCARD-2 extends, and goes beyond the scope of, the previous Networking Activities of CARE-HHH and EuCARD(-1) EuroLumi. XBEAM addresses, and pushes, all accelerator frontiers: luminosity, energy, beam power, beam intensity, and polarization. This is realized through five tasks: Coordination and Communication, Extreme Colliders (XCOL)m Extreme Performance Rings (XRING), Extreme SC Linacs (XLINAC), and Extreme Polarization (XPOL), respectively. In the first two years of EuCARD-2, XBEAM (co-)organised more than 15 topical workshops: the upgrade of KEKB in Japan, crystal channelling, the advancement of the CERN facilities, e.g. LHC upgrades and the Future Circular Collider, magnet optimization, space-charge effects, the commissioning of proton linacs, with emphasis on the ESS, key questions for lepton spin polarization, storage rings for measuring the electric dipole moment of electrons or protons. This presentation reports the major achievements of the XBEAM activity from 2013 to 2015, and outlines the further plans through 2017.

	Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of High Energy Physics under Award Number DE-SC0011340. With increasing interest in the nonlinear integrable optics, it is important that early experiences with simulating the lattices be shared to save time and point out potential difficulties in the simulations. We present here some details of simulating the nonlinear integrable lattices. We discuss correctly implementing and testing the elliptic element kicks, and the limits of the thin lens approximation. We also discuss generating a properly matched bunch in the transverse phase space, and how to analyze the resulting computational data from simulations.

MOPHA031	Implementation of a Diagnostic Pulse for Beam Optics Stability Measurements at FLASH	kicker, optics, controls, betatron	850
	F. Mayet, R.W. Aßmann, S. Schreiber, M. Vogt DESY, Hamburg, Germany
	In order to monitor long-term stability of beam optics, simple and at the same time minimally invasive procedures are desirable. Using selectively kicked bunches, betatron phase advance, as well as potential growth of the betatron oscillation amplitude and the Twiss parameters alpha and beta can be extracted from BPM data. If done periodically, this data can be compiled into a long-term history that is accessible via the control system. This way it is possible to identify potential sources of beam optics errors. At FLASH the procedure could be implemented as a server/client tool. Since the whole procedure takes less than five seconds, operation is not disturbed significantly. In this work the possible implementation of the procedure is presented. It is also shown how the history data can be evaluated in order to infer possible beam optics error sources.

	High voltage RTM Piezo Driver has been developed to support special diagnostic applications foreseen for XFEL facility. The RTM is capable of driving 4 piezo actuators with voltages up to ±80 V. The solid-state power amplifiers are driven using 18-bit DACs and sampling rates of 1 MSPS. The bandwidth of the driver is remotely tunable using programmable low pass filters. The 4-channel Piezo Driver unit provides the information of piezo output voltage and current. Three independent test setups have been built to test 4-channel Piezo Driver performance. In the paper we are presenting EOD laser lock to 1.3 GHz FLASH master oscillator using bipolar piezo stretcher (fine tuning). The piezo motor based course tuning has been applied for the long term laser stability measurements. The unipolar piezo actuator operation has been demonstrated for the Origami Onefive laser locked to 1.3 GHz LAB MO. The preliminary results of active stabilization of 3 km fiber link laboratory setup are shown.

MOPHA037	Visible Light Diagnostics at the ANKA Storage Ring	synchrotron, photon, detector, radiation	866
	B. Kehrer, A. Borysenko, E. Hertle, N. Hiller, M. Holz, A.-S. Müller, P. Schönfeldt, P. Schütze KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany
	Synchrotron radiation in the visible light range is a versatile diagnostics tool for accelerator studies. At the ANKA storage ring of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), we have a dedicated visible light diagnostics beamline and two additional beam ports close to the radiation's source point. The visible light diagnostics beamline hosts a time-correlated single-photon-counting unit to measure the bunch filling pattern and a streak camera for longitudinal diagnostics. Recently, the beamline has been extended with a fast-gated intensified camera to study transverse instabilities. The synchrotron light monitor ports were previously used for direct source imaging. Due to the diffraction limit the vertical beam size could not be resolved. One of the two ports has recently been equipped with a double-slit to allow for interferometric measurements of the vertical beam size. In this paper we give an overview of the different setup modifications and present first results.

MOPTY036	Radiation of a Bunch Moving in the Presence of a Bounded Planar Wire Structure	radiation, vacuum, electronics, electromagnetic-fields	1007
	V.V. Vorobev, S.N. Galyamin, A.A. Grigoreva, A.V. Tyukhtin Saint-Petersburg State University, Saint-Petersburg, Russia
	Three-dimensional* and planar periodic structures can be used for non-destructive diagnostics of charged particle bunches. Here we consider the semi-infinite planar structure comprised of thin conducting parallel wires. If the period of the structure is much less than the typical wavelength of the electromagnetic field, then the structure's influence can be described with help of the averaged boundary conditions. We study radiation of a charged particle bunch with small transversal size and arbitrary longitudinal one in two cases: (i) the bunch moves orthogonally to the grid at some distance from the edge and (ii) it moves along the edge of the grid. The problems are solved analytically. In both cases the bunch generates a surface wave which contains the information about the size of the bunch. The shape of the surface waves is similar to the radiation generated in the presence of 3D periodical wire structures, however planar structure is simpler for use in accelerating system. Some typical numerical results for bunches of various shapes are given. * V.V. Vorobev et al., Phys. Rev. Let., 108, 184801 (2012); A.V. Tyukhtin et al., Phys. Rev. ST AB (in press). * M.I.

	M. Žnidarčič, E. Janezic, P. Leban I-Tech, Solkan, Slovenia K. Lang GSI, Darmstadt, Germany
	The accelerators of the Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research are designed to deliver stable and rare isotope beams covering a huge range of intensities and beam energies. FAIR will employ heavy ion synchrotrons for highest intensities, anti-proton and rare isotope production stations, high resolution separators and several storage rings where beam cooling can be applied. Instrumentation Technologies will develop and deliver a beam diagnostic system for SIS100, HESR and CR rings. Furthermore the beam transfers will be equipped with the beam position diagnostics. The project is on schedule and the first instrument prototypes are already being under evaluation. This article discusses the new BPM electronics concept, the tests performed in the laboratory and the performance obtained.

MOPTY054	Fibre Monitoring System for the Beam Permit Loops at the LHC and Future Evolution of the Beam Interlock System	monitoring, radiation, operation, interface	1054
	C. García-Argos, R. Denz, S. Gabourin, C. Martin, B. Puccio, A.P. Siemko CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	The optical fibres that transmit the beam permit loop signals at the CERN accelerator complex are deployed along radiation areas. This may result in increased attenuation of the fibres, which reduces the power margin of the links. In addition, other events may cause the links to not function properly and result in false dumps, reducing the availability of the accelerator chain and affecting physics data taking. In order to evaluate the state of the fibres, an out-of-band fibre monitoring system is proposed, working in parallel to the actual beam permit loops. The future beam interlock system to be deployed during LHC long shutdown 2 will implement online, real-time monitoring of the fibres, a feature the current system lacks. Commercial off-the-shelf components to implement the optical transceivers are proposed whenever possible instead of ad-hoc designs.

MOPTY056	Elena Orbit and Schottky Measurement Systems	pick-up, FPGA, antiproton, hardware	1061

	A new Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring (ELENA) is under construction at CERN to further decelerate the antiprotons from the existing Antiproton Decelerator (AD) to an energy of just 100 keV. This contribution will describe the beam position system foreseen for ELENA and how it can be adapted for Schottky measurements. The orbit system being developed is based on electrostatic shoebox BPMs fitted with Digital Down Converters (DDC). The main requirement is to measure complete orbits every 20 ms with a resolution of 0.1mm for intensities in the range of 1-3x10⁷ charges. The pick-up signals will, after amplification with a low noise charge amplifier, be down-mixed to baseband for position computation. In order to provide the longitudinal Schottky diagnostics of un-bunched beams, the 20 BPM sum signals will, after time off flight corrections, be added digitally to give an expected S/N increase of 13 dB compared to using a single electrostatic pick-up.

MOPWI009	A Multi-pinhole Faraday Cup Device for Measurement of Discrete Charge Distribution of Heavy and Light Ions	ion, electron, experiment, vacuum	1160
	P.K. Roy, S. Dwaraknath, F.U. Naab, S. Taller, O.F. Toader, G. Was NERS-UM, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA
	It is a difficult task to identify the beam density distribution profile over discrete areas using a standard Faraday cup, as the measurements are provided for the full aperture geometry of the instrument. Ideally, the intensity of the scintillating material would provide a correlation to the beam density, but the low photon efficiency, damage to the scintillator, and camera resolution all limit the practicality of using this system for assessing the spatial resolution of an ion beam. A beam profile monitor (BPM) device has the ability to provide a partial or discrete distribution of an integrated beam profile. The BPM, however, does not discriminate between ions and electrons, the latter of which can be problematic for assessing the full beam profile. To provide a better description of the beam density in spatial dimensions, a multi-pinhole Faraday cup (MPFC) has been designed, developed, and applied to the measurement of energetic ions. This device uses an array of millimeter sized Faraday cups arranged in a grid to measure the current of the beam at discrete locations. This report presents the design of the device, and its performance with ion beams.

	Funding: Results shown in this report result from work performed at Argonne National Laboratory operated by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-06CH11357. Beam diagnostics required for the APS MBA are driven by ambitious beam stability requirements. The major AC stability challenge is to correct rms beam motion to 10% the rms beam size at the insertion device source points from 0.01 to 1000 Hz. The vertical plane represents the biggest challenge for AC stability which is required to be 400 nm rms for a 4 micron vertical beam size. Long term drift over a period of 7 days is required to be 1 micron or less. Major diagnostics R&D components are improved rf beam position processing using commercially available fpga based bpm processors, new XRay beam position monitors sensitive only to hard X-rays, mechanical motion sensing and remediation to detect and correct long term drift and a new feedback system featuring a tenfold increase in sampling rate and a several-fold increase in the number of fast correctors and bpms. Feedback system development represents a major effort and we are pursuing development of a novel algorithm that integrates orbit correction for both slow and fast correctors down to DC simultaneously. Finally a new data acquisition system (DAQ) is being developed to acquire streaming data from all diagnostics.

MOPWI035	Characterization of Visible Synchrotron Radiation Polarization at SPEAR3	polarization, radiation, synchrotron, synchrotron-radiation	1240
	W.J. Corbett, A.M. Kiss SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA M.J. Boland The University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia C.L. Li East China University of Science and Technology, Shanghai, People's Republic of China
	Schwinger's equations predict the angular- and spectral distribution of synchrotron radiation across a wide band of the electromagnetic spectrum. Using a visible-light diagnostic beam line, it is possible to characterize the electric field polarization state as a function of vertical observation angle and compare with theory. Complications include accounting for - and π-mode transmission factors at mirror surfaces and precise alignment of the polarizing optics with the principle beam axes. The Stokes parameters are measured and beam polarization ellipse reported.

TUAC1	Beam Instrumentation and Diagnostics for High Luminosity LHC	synchrotron, radiation, pick-up, collimation	1349
	O.R. Jones, E. Bravin, B. Dehning, T. Lefèvre, H. Schmickler CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	The extensive array of beam instrumentation with which the LHC is equipped, has played a major role in its commissioning, rapid intensity ramp-up and safe and reliable operation. High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) brings with it a number of new challenges in terms of instrumentation that will be discussed in this contribution. The beam loss system will need significant upgrades in order to be able to cope with the demands of HL-LHC, with cryogenic beam loss monitors under investigation for deployment in the new inner triplet magnets to distinguish between primary beam losses and collision debris. Radiation tolerant integrated circuits are also being developed to allow the front-end electronics to sit much closer to the detector. Upgrades to other existing systems are also envisaged; including the beam position measurement system in the interaction regions and the addition of a halo measurement capability to synchrotron light diagnostics. Additionally, several new diagnostic systems are under investigation, such as very high bandwidth pick-ups and a streak camera installation, both able to perform intra-bunch measurements of transverse position on a turn by turn basis.

	The knowledge of the heat intake from the electron beam is essential to design the cryogenic layout of superconducting insertion devices. With the aim of measuring the beam heat load to a cold bore and understanding the responsible mechanisms, a cold vacuum chamber for diagnostics (COLDDIAG) has been built. The instrumentation comprises temperature sensors, pressure gauges, mass spectrometers and retarding field analyzers, which allow to study the beam heat load and the influence of the cryosorbed gas layer. COLDDIAG was installed in the storage ring of the Diamond Light Source from September 2012 to August 2013. During this time measurements were performed for a wide range of machine conditions, employing the various measuring capabilities of the device. Here we report on the analysis of the measured beam heat load, pressure and gas content, as well as the low energy charged particle flux and spectrum as a function of the electron beam parameters.

When fully completed, the accelerator will consist of a photoinjector, one ILC-type cryomodule, multiple accelerator R&D beamlines, and a downstream beamline to inject 300 MeV electrons into the Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA). We report on the results of first beam, the achievement of our cryomodule to ILC gradient specifications, and near-term future plans for the facility.

	Funding: Work supported by IDC-20101074, FPA2013-47883-C2-1-P and ANR-11-IDEX-0003-02 The understanding and control of the transverse beam halo distributions is an important issue to reduce sources of background noise in Future Linear Colliders (FLC) and specifically at ATF2. A realistic model of the beam halo in the old extraction line of the ATF damping ring was obtained in 2005, based on wire scanner measurements. Recently, new measurements were done in the new extraction line of ATF2, using both wire scanners, in 2013, and Optical Transition Radiation monitors (OTR), in 2014. The beam halo propagation through the ATF2 beamline by means of tracking simulations has been investigated using as input a purely Gaussian and uniform beam halo model.

	RadiaBeam, in collaboration with UCLA, is developing an inexpensive, low-energy, ultra-fast, streaked electron diffraction (S-UED) system which allows one to reconstruct a single ultrafast event with a single pulse of electrons using and RF deflector. The high-frequency (GHz), high voltage, phase-locked RF field in the deflector enables temporal resolution of atomic events as fine as sub-100 fs. In this paper, we present an overview of the system being developed and the initial experimental results. We also discuss the challenges based on our design of a UED system that incorporates a novel, high-resolution dielectric-loaded RF deflector and a solid-state X-band amplifier.

WEPWA012	Design of a Microwave Frequency Sweep Interferometer for Plasma Density Measurements in ECR Ion Sources	plasma, ion, simulation, ion-source	2512

	Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Sources (ECRIS) are among the candidates to support the growing request of intense beams of multicharged ions. Their further development is related to the availability of new diagnostic tools, nowadays consisting of few types only of devices designed on purpose for such compact machines. Microwave Interferometry is a non-invasive method for plasma diagnostics and represents the best candidate for the whole plasma density measurements. Interferometry in ECR Ion Sources is a challenging task due to their compact size. The typical density range of ECR plasmas (10¹¹-10¹² cm^-3) causes the probing beam wavelength to be in the order of few centimetres, which is comparable to the chamber radius. The paper describes the design of a new microwave interferometer based on the so-called "frequency sweep" method: the density is here derived by the frequency shift of a beating signal obtained during the fast sweep of both probing and reference microwave signals; inner cavity multipaths contributions can thereby be suppressed by cleaning the spurious frequencies from the beating signal spectrum.

WEPWA061	High-Gradient Testing of Metallic Photonic Band-gap (PBG) and Disc-Loaded Waveguide (DLWG) Structures at 17 GHz	operation, flattop, coupling, wakefield	2643
	B.J. Munroe, M.A. Shapiro, R.J. Temkin, J.X. Zhang MIT/PSFC, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
	Funding: This work supported by the DOE, Office of High Energy Physics, Grant No. DE-SC0010075 Photonic Band-gap (PBG) structures continue to be a promising area of research for future accelerator structures. Previous experiments at 11 GHz have demonstrated that PBG structures can operate at high gradient and low breakdown probability, provided that pulsed heating is controlled. A metallic single-cell standing-wave PBG structure has been tested at 17 GHz at MIT to investigate how breakdown probability scales with frequency in these structures. A single-cell standing-wave disc-loaded waveguide (DLWG) was also tested at MIT as a reference structure. The PBG structure achieved greater than 90 MV/m gradient at 100 ns pulse length and a breakdown probability of 1.1 10-1 /pulse/m. The DLWG structure achieved 90 MV/m gradient at 100 ns pulse length and a breakdown probability of 1.2 10-1 /pulse/m, the same as the PBG structure within experimental error. These tests were conducted at the MIT structure test stand, and represent the first long-pulse breakdown testing of accelerator structures above X-Band.

	Funding: US Department of Energy Current designs for muon cooling channels require high-gradient RF cavities to be placed in solenoidal magnetic fields in order to contain muons with large transverse emittances. It has been found that doing so reduces the threshold at which RF cavity breakdown occurs. To aid the effort to study RF cavity breakdown in magnetic fields it would be helpful to have a diagnostic tool which can detect breakdown and localize the source of the breakdown inside the cavity. We report here on acoustic simulations and comparisons with experimental acoustic data of breakdown from several RF cavities. Included in this analysis are our most recent results from attempting to localize breakdown using these data.

	Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) is developing a SASE X-ray Free Electron Laser based on 10 GeV linear accelerator. Bunch compressor (BC) systems are developed to be used for the linear accelerator tunnel. It consists of three hard X-ray line and one soft X-ray line. BC systems are composed of four dipole magnets, three quadrupole magnet, BPM and collimator. The support system is based on an asymmetric four-dipole magnet chicane in which asymmetry can be optimized. This flexibility is achieved by allowing the middle two dipole magnets to move transversely. In this paper, we describe the design of the stages used for precise movement of the bunch compressor magnets and associated diagnostics components.

	Funding: This work has been funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. The Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) is currently under construction in Rokkasho (Japan). LIPAc will generate a CW 9 MeV deuteron beam at 125 mA. It will serve to validate the final IFMIF accelerator concept and technologies. The RF power system is being integrated by CIEMAT (Spain) in collaboration with its partner companies and European institutes. LIPAc RF Power System design has been performed aiming high reliability, high availability and easy maintainability to address one of the most important requirements for IFMIF. The target of LIPAc tests is to validate the technologies and designs for the final phase of IFMIF. Several improvements in reliability, availability and maintainability have been implemented in the LIPAc RF power System. These improvements are based on both, new technologies and new maintenance philosophy. The results of their first tests are shown in this paper. Additional potential improvements are also analyzed.

WEPMN071	Enhanced Diagnostic Systems for the Supervision of the Superconducting Circuits of the LHC	operation, dipole, hardware, controls	3090
	R. Denz, Z. Charifoulline, K. Dahlerup-Petersen, A.P. Siemko, J. Steckert CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	Being an integral part of the protection system for the superconducting circuits of the LHC, the data acquisition systems used for the circuit supervision underwent a substantial upgrade during the first long shutdown of the LHC. The sampling rates and resolution of most of the acquired signals increased significantly. Newly added measurements channels like for the supervision of the quench heater circuits of the LHC main dipoles allow identifying specific fault states. All LHC main circuits are meanwhile equipped with earth voltage feelers allowing monitoring the electrical insulation strength, especially during the fast discharges. The protection system for the bus-bar splices is now capable to operate in different modes. By this measure, it is possible fulfilling the requirements for different specific tests like the warm bus-bar measurements and current stabilizer continuity measurements (CSCM) without field interventions.

	S. Assadi Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, USA
	Funding: Work is partially supported by grants from the State of Texas (ASE) & the Michelle foundation High power, continuous wave (cw) accelerators are proposed for applications such as Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) for subcritical reactor strategies and heavy ion accelerators for the production of rare isotopes. Because of the high beam powers and high energy loss with beam interception of material, the beam diagnostic designs are necessarily shifting to non-intercepting, real-time feedback devices that can be fully integrated with the accelerator machine protection system (MPS) and operation control system including online models. Appropriate for these applications, three types of beam diagnostics (lanthanum bromide scintillation coincidence detectors, GaN neutron and gamma detectors, and beam position monitors) are presented.

THYC1	Comparison of Beam Diagnostics for 3rd and 4th Generation Ring-based Light Sources	photon, feedback, emittance, electronics	3657
	H. Maesaka RIKEN SPring-8 Center, Sayo-cho, Sayo-gun, Hyogo, Japan
	This talk will present the challenges and progress required in beam instrumentation for next generation storage-ring light sources. These light sources aim at small natural emittance of approximately 100 pm rad in order to achieve much higher brightness than the present 3rd generation light sources. This small emittance is realized by a multi-bend lattice, which has a small dynamic aperture of only several mm, a small beam size of approximately 10 microns, etc. Therefore, the beam orbit must be precisely measured by beam position monitors (BPM) for the orbit correction and the beam size should be monitored with less than 10-micron resolution in order to estimate the beam emittance. A bunch-by-bunch feedback system is also required for the suppression of various instabilities coming from narrow beam chamber. In addition, since the stable tune region is small, a real-time tune monitor is demanded for the tune correction. We introduce leading-edge instrumentation techniques to overcome these difficulties, comparing with of 3rd generation light sources.

	For the research program with cooled antiprotons at FAIR a dedicated 70 MeV, 70 mA proton injector is required. The main acceleration of this room temperature linac will be provided by six CH cavities operated at 325 MHz. Within the last years, the assembly and tuning of the first power prototype was finished. The cavity was tested with a preliminary aluminum drift tube structure, which was used for precise frequency and field tuning. Afterwards, the final drift tube structure has been welded inside the main tanks and the galvanic copper plating has taken place at GSI workshops. This paper will report on the recent advances with the prototype as well as on the current status of the overall p-Linac project.

	V.A. Dimov, E. Belli, G. Bellodi, J.-B. Lallement, A.M. Lombardi CERN, Geneva, Switzerland M. Yarmohammadi Satri IPM, Tehran, Iran
	CERN Linac4 is made of a 3 MeV front end including a 45 keV source , a 3 MeV Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) and a fast chopper, followed by a 50 MeV Drift Tube Linac (DTL), a 100 MeV Cell-Coupled Drift Tube Linac (CCDTL) and a 160 MeV Pi-Mode Structure (PIMS). The Linac4 beam commissioning is performed in 6 stages of increasing energy. Movable beam diagnostics benches, with various instruments, are used at each step to allow the detailed characterisation of operational parameters that will play a key role in the overall future performance. The first three stages of the commissioning, up to 12 MeV beam energy, have been completed at the end of 2014. The RFQ and the chopper line at 3 MeV, as well as the first tank of the DTL at 12 MeV were fully characterised, using permanent diagnostic instruments and a movable diagnostic bench equipped with a spectrometer, a slit-grid emittance meter, a Bunch Shape Monitor, Beam Position Monitors and a laser-emittance device. This paper reports on the strategy and the results of the commissioning up to 12 MeV. It also presents the validation of the set-up strategy, which is essential for the next stages of commissioning.

Preserving Information of the Three Spatial Electron Beam Dimensions in One Streak Camera Measurement

Funding: Work funded by the DFG within SFB/TRR16
At the pulse stretcher ring ELSA, a streak camera is used for the analysis of visible synchrotron radiation. It functions as fast time resolving beam diagnostic apparatus capable of visualizing dynamics down to the picosecond time range. The optical beamline splits the photon beam and projects the electron beam's image onto the streak camera with transversely perpendicular orientation and slight displacement, thereby providing simultaneous imaging of both transverse planes. Thus, the information of bunch and beam dynamics in three dimensions is preserved and can be observed in slow sweep or synchroscan operation. Characteristics and exemplary measurements, demonstrating the capabilities and limits of this technique, are presented.

EuCARD-2 is an Integration Activity on accelerator R&D co-funded within the European Union’s 7th Framework Programme. The Extreme Beams (XBEAM) network of EuCARD-2 extends, and goes beyond the scope of, the previous Networking Activities of CARE-HHH and EuCARD(-1) EuroLumi. XBEAM addresses, and pushes, all accelerator frontiers: luminosity, energy, beam power, beam intensity, and polarization. This is realized through five tasks: Coordination and Communication, Extreme Colliders (XCOL)m Extreme Performance Rings (XRING), Extreme SC Linacs (XLINAC), and Extreme Polarization (XPOL), respectively. In the first two years of EuCARD-2, XBEAM (co-)organised more than 15 topical workshops: the upgrade of KEKB in Japan, crystal channelling, the advancement of the CERN facilities, e.g. LHC upgrades and the Future Circular Collider, magnet optimization, space-charge effects, the commissioning of proton linacs, with emphasis on the ESS, key questions for lepton spin polarization, storage rings for measuring the electric dipole moment of electrons or protons. This presentation reports the major achievements of the XBEAM activity from 2013 to 2015, and outlines the further plans through 2017.

With increasing interest in the nonlinear integrable optics, it is important that early experiences with simulating the lattices be shared to save time and point out potential difficulties in the simulations. We present here some details of simulating the nonlinear integrable lattices. We discuss correctly implementing and testing the elliptic element kicks, and the limits of the thin lens approximation. We also discuss generating a properly matched bunch in the transverse phase space, and how to analyze the resulting computational data from simulations.

DESY, Hamburg, Germany

In order to monitor long-term stability of beam optics, simple and at the same time minimally invasive procedures are desirable. Using selectively kicked bunches, betatron phase advance, as well as potential growth of the betatron oscillation amplitude and the Twiss parameters alpha and beta can be extracted from BPM data. If done periodically, this data can be compiled into a long-term history that is accessible via the control system. This way it is possible to identify potential sources of beam optics errors. At FLASH the procedure could be implemented as a server/client tool. Since the whole procedure takes less than five seconds, operation is not disturbed significantly. In this work the possible implementation of the procedure is presented. It is also shown how the history data can be evaluated in order to infer possible beam optics error sources.

High voltage RTM Piezo Driver has been developed to support special diagnostic applications foreseen for XFEL facility. The RTM is capable of driving 4 piezo actuators with voltages up to ±80 V. The solid-state power amplifiers are driven using 18-bit DACs and sampling rates of 1 MSPS. The bandwidth of the driver is remotely tunable using programmable low pass filters. The 4-channel Piezo Driver unit provides the information of piezo output voltage and current. Three independent test setups have been built to test 4-channel Piezo Driver performance. In the paper we are presenting EOD laser lock to 1.3 GHz FLASH master oscillator using bipolar piezo stretcher (fine tuning). The piezo motor based course tuning has been applied for the long term laser stability measurements. The unipolar piezo actuator operation has been demonstrated for the Origami Onefive laser locked to 1.3 GHz LAB MO. The preliminary results of active stabilization of 3 km fiber link laboratory setup are shown.

Synchrotron radiation in the visible light range is a versatile diagnostics tool for accelerator studies. At the ANKA storage ring of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), we have a dedicated visible light diagnostics beamline and two additional beam ports close to the radiation's source point. The visible light diagnostics beamline hosts a time-correlated single-photon-counting unit to measure the bunch filling pattern and a streak camera for longitudinal diagnostics. Recently, the beamline has been extended with a fast-gated intensified camera to study transverse instabilities. The synchrotron light monitor ports were previously used for direct source imaging. Due to the diffraction limit the vertical beam size could not be resolved. One of the two ports has recently been equipped with a double-slit to allow for interferometric measurements of the vertical beam size. In this paper we give an overview of the different setup modifications and present first results.

The DAΦNE Beam Test Facility delivers electron and positron beam with a wide spread of parameters in charge, energy, transverse dimensions and time width. Thanks to the recent improvements of the diagnostics, all the beam parameters have been measured and optimized. In particular we report here some results on beam transverse size, divergence, and position stability for different energy and intensity configurations. After the upgrade of the electronic gun of the DAΦNE LINAC, the pulse time width and charge distribution have been also characterized.

Three-dimensional* and planar** periodic structures can be used for non-destructive diagnostics of charged particle bunches. Here we consider the semi-infinite planar structure comprised of thin conducting parallel wires. If the period of the structure is much less than the typical wavelength of the electromagnetic field, then the structure's influence can be described with help of the averaged boundary conditions***. We study radiation of a charged particle bunch with small transversal size and arbitrary longitudinal one in two cases: (i) the bunch moves orthogonally to the grid at some distance from the edge and (ii) it moves along the edge of the grid. The problems are solved analytically. In both cases the bunch generates a surface wave which contains the information about the size of the bunch. The shape of the surface waves is similar to the radiation generated in the presence of 3D periodical wire structures*, however planar structure is simpler for use in accelerating system. Some typical numerical results for bunches of various shapes are given.

Fibre Monitoring System for the Beam Permit Loops at the LHC and Future Evolution of the Beam Interlock System

The optical fibres that transmit the beam permit loop signals at the CERN accelerator complex are deployed along radiation areas. This may result in increased attenuation of the fibres, which reduces the power margin of the links. In addition, other events may cause the links to not function properly and result in false dumps, reducing the availability of the accelerator chain and affecting physics data taking. In order to evaluate the state of the fibres, an out-of-band fibre monitoring system is proposed, working in parallel to the actual beam permit loops. The future beam interlock system to be deployed during LHC long shutdown 2 will implement online, real-time monitoring of the fibres, a feature the current system lacks. Commercial off-the-shelf components to implement the optical transceivers are proposed whenever possible instead of ad-hoc designs.

A new Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring (ELENA) is under construction at CERN to further decelerate the antiprotons from the existing Antiproton Decelerator (AD) to an energy of just 100 keV. This contribution will describe the beam position system foreseen for ELENA and how it can be adapted for Schottky measurements. The orbit system being developed is based on electrostatic shoebox BPMs fitted with Digital Down Converters (DDC). The main requirement is to measure complete orbits every 20 ms with a resolution of 0.1mm for intensities in the range of 1-3x10⁷ charges. The pick-up signals will, after amplification with a low noise charge amplifier, be down-mixed to baseband for position computation. In order to provide the longitudinal Schottky diagnostics of un-bunched beams, the 20 BPM sum signals will, after time off flight corrections, be added digitally to give an expected S/N increase of 13 dB compared to using a single electrostatic pick-up.

The PXIE accelerator is the front-end test stand of the proposed Proton Improvement Plan (PIP-II) initiative: a CW-compatible pulsed H⁻ superconducting RF linac upgrade to Fermilab’s injection system. The PXIE Ion Source and Low-Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) section are designed to create and transfer a 1–10 mA H⁻ beam, in either pulsed (0.001–16 ms) or DC mode, from the ion source through to the injection point of the RFQ. This paper discusses the range of diagnostic tools Allison-type Emittance Scanner, Faraday Cup, Toroid, DCCT, electrically isolated diaphragms – involved in the commissioning of the beamline and preparation of the beam for injection into the RFQ.

It is a difficult task to identify the beam density distribution profile over discrete areas using a standard Faraday cup, as the measurements are provided for the full aperture geometry of the instrument. Ideally, the intensity of the scintillating material would provide a correlation to the beam density, but the low photon efficiency, damage to the scintillator, and camera resolution all limit the practicality of using this system for assessing the spatial resolution of an ion beam. A beam profile monitor (BPM) device has the ability to provide a partial or discrete distribution of an integrated beam profile. The BPM, however, does not discriminate between ions and electrons, the latter of which can be problematic for assessing the full beam profile. To provide a better description of the beam density in spatial dimensions, a multi-pinhole Faraday cup (MPFC) has been designed, developed, and applied to the measurement of energetic ions. This device uses an array of millimeter sized Faraday cups arranged in a grid to measure the current of the beam at discrete locations. This report presents the design of the device, and its performance with ion beams.

Funding: Results shown in this report result from work performed at Argonne National Laboratory operated by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-06CH11357.
Beam diagnostics required for the APS MBA are driven by ambitious beam stability requirements. The major AC stability challenge is to correct rms beam motion to 10% the rms beam size at the insertion device source points from 0.01 to 1000 Hz. The vertical plane represents the biggest challenge for AC stability which is required to be 400 nm rms for a 4 micron vertical beam size. Long term drift over a period of 7 days is required to be 1 micron or less. Major diagnostics R&D components are improved rf beam position processing using commercially available fpga based bpm processors, new XRay beam position monitors sensitive only to hard X-rays, mechanical motion sensing and remediation to detect and correct long term drift and a new feedback system featuring a tenfold increase in sampling rate and a several-fold increase in the number of fast correctors and bpms. Feedback system development represents a major effort and we are pursuing development of a novel algorithm that integrates orbit correction for both slow and fast correctors down to DC simultaneously. Finally a new data acquisition system (DAQ) is being developed to acquire streaming data from all diagnostics.

Schwinger's equations predict the angular- and spectral distribution of synchrotron radiation across a wide band of the electromagnetic spectrum. Using a visible-light diagnostic beam line, it is possible to characterize the electric field polarization state as a function of vertical observation angle and compare with theory. Complications include accounting for - and π-mode transmission factors at mirror surfaces and precise alignment of the polarizing optics with the principle beam axes. The Stokes parameters are measured and beam polarization ellipse reported.

The extensive array of beam instrumentation with which the LHC is equipped, has played a major role in its commissioning, rapid intensity ramp-up and safe and reliable operation. High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) brings with it a number of new challenges in terms of instrumentation that will be discussed in this contribution. The beam loss system will need significant upgrades in order to be able to cope with the demands of HL-LHC, with cryogenic beam loss monitors under investigation for deployment in the new inner triplet magnets to distinguish between primary beam losses and collision debris. Radiation tolerant integrated circuits are also being developed to allow the front-end electronics to sit much closer to the detector. Upgrades to other existing systems are also envisaged; including the beam position measurement system in the interaction regions and the addition of a halo measurement capability to synchrotron light diagnostics. Additionally, several new diagnostic systems are under investigation, such as very high bandwidth pick-ups and a streak camera installation, both able to perform intra-bunch measurements of transverse position on a turn by turn basis.

The knowledge of the heat intake from the electron beam is essential to design the cryogenic layout of superconducting insertion devices. With the aim of measuring the beam heat load to a cold bore and understanding the responsible mechanisms, a cold vacuum chamber for diagnostics (COLDDIAG) has been built. The instrumentation comprises temperature sensors, pressure gauges, mass spectrometers and retarding field analyzers, which allow to study the beam heat load and the influence of the cryosorbed gas layer. COLDDIAG was installed in the storage ring of the Diamond Light Source from September 2012 to August 2013. During this time measurements were performed for a wide range of machine conditions, employing the various measuring capabilities of the device. Here we report on the analysis of the measured beam heat load, pressure and gas content, as well as the low energy charged particle flux and spectrum as a function of the electron beam parameters.

The understanding and control of the transverse beam halo distributions is an important issue to reduce sources of background noise in Future Linear Colliders (FLC) and specifically at ATF2. A realistic model of the beam halo in the old extraction line of the ATF damping ring was obtained in 2005, based on wire scanner measurements. Recently, new measurements were done in the new extraction line of ATF2, using both wire scanners, in 2013, and Optical Transition Radiation monitors (OTR), in 2014. The beam halo propagation through the ATF2 beamline by means of tracking simulations has been investigated using as input a purely Gaussian and uniform beam halo model.

RadiaBeam, in collaboration with UCLA, is developing an inexpensive, low-energy, ultra-fast, streaked electron diffraction (S-UED) system which allows one to reconstruct a single ultrafast event with a single pulse of electrons using and RF deflector. The high-frequency (GHz), high voltage, phase-locked RF field in the deflector enables temporal resolution of atomic events as fine as sub-100 fs. In this paper, we present an overview of the system being developed and the initial experimental results. We also discuss the challenges based on our design of a UED system that incorporates a novel, high-resolution dielectric-loaded RF deflector and a solid-state X-band amplifier.

Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Sources (ECRIS) are among the candidates to support the growing request of intense beams of multicharged ions. Their further development is related to the availability of new diagnostic tools, nowadays consisting of few types only of devices designed on purpose for such compact machines. Microwave Interferometry is a non-invasive method for plasma diagnostics and represents the best candidate for the whole plasma density measurements. Interferometry in ECR Ion Sources is a challenging task due to their compact size. The typical density range of ECR plasmas (10¹¹-10¹² cm^-3) causes the probing beam wavelength to be in the order of few centimetres, which is comparable to the chamber radius. The paper describes the design of a new microwave interferometer based on the so-called "frequency sweep" method: the density is here derived by the frequency shift of a beating signal obtained during the fast sweep of both probing and reference microwave signals; inner cavity multipaths contributions can thereby be suppressed by cleaning the spurious frequencies from the beating signal spectrum.

Photonic Band-gap (PBG) structures continue to be a promising area of research for future accelerator structures. Previous experiments at 11 GHz have demonstrated that PBG structures can operate at high gradient and low breakdown probability, provided that pulsed heating is controlled. A metallic single-cell standing-wave PBG structure has been tested at 17 GHz at MIT to investigate how breakdown probability scales with frequency in these structures. A single-cell standing-wave disc-loaded waveguide (DLWG) was also tested at MIT as a reference structure. The PBG structure achieved greater than 90 MV/m gradient at 100 ns pulse length and a breakdown probability of 1.1 *10-1 /pulse/m. The DLWG structure achieved 90 MV/m gradient at 100 ns pulse length and a breakdown probability of 1.2 *10-1 /pulse/m, the same as the PBG structure within experimental error. These tests were conducted at the MIT structure test stand, and represent the first long-pulse breakdown testing of accelerator structures above X-Band.

Current designs for muon cooling channels require high-gradient RF cavities to be placed in solenoidal magnetic fields in order to contain muons with large transverse emittances. It has been found that doing so reduces the threshold at which RF cavity breakdown occurs. To aid the effort to study RF cavity breakdown in magnetic fields it would be helpful to have a diagnostic tool which can detect breakdown and localize the source of the breakdown inside the cavity. We report here on acoustic simulations and comparisons with experimental acoustic data of breakdown from several RF cavities. Included in this analysis are our most recent results from attempting to localize breakdown using these data.

Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) is developing a SASE X-ray Free Electron Laser based on 10 GeV linear accelerator. Bunch compressor (BC) systems are developed to be used for the linear accelerator tunnel. It consists of three hard X-ray line and one soft X-ray line. BC systems are composed of four dipole magnets, three quadrupole magnet, BPM and collimator. The support system is based on an asymmetric four-dipole magnet chicane in which asymmetry can be optimized. This flexibility is achieved by allowing the middle two dipole magnets to move transversely. In this paper, we describe the design of the stages used for precise movement of the bunch compressor magnets and associated diagnostics components.

The Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) is currently under construction in Rokkasho (Japan). LIPAc will generate a CW 9 MeV deuteron beam at 125 mA. It will serve to validate the final IFMIF accelerator concept and technologies. The RF power system is being integrated by CIEMAT (Spain) in collaboration with its partner companies and European institutes. LIPAc RF Power System design has been performed aiming high reliability, high availability and easy maintainability to address one of the most important requirements for IFMIF. The target of LIPAc tests is to validate the technologies and designs for the final phase of IFMIF. Several improvements in reliability, availability and maintainability have been implemented in the LIPAc RF power System. These improvements are based on both, new technologies and new maintenance philosophy. The results of their first tests are shown in this paper. Additional potential improvements are also analyzed.

Being an integral part of the protection system for the superconducting circuits of the LHC, the data acquisition systems used for the circuit supervision underwent a substantial upgrade during the first long shutdown of the LHC. The sampling rates and resolution of most of the acquired signals increased significantly. Newly added measurements channels like for the supervision of the quench heater circuits of the LHC main dipoles allow identifying specific fault states. All LHC main circuits are meanwhile equipped with earth voltage feelers allowing monitoring the electrical insulation strength, especially during the fast discharges. The protection system for the bus-bar splices is now capable to operate in different modes. By this measure, it is possible fulfilling the requirements for different specific tests like the warm bus-bar measurements and current stabilizer continuity measurements (CSCM) without field interventions.

High power, continuous wave (cw) accelerators are proposed for applications such as Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) for subcritical reactor strategies and heavy ion accelerators for the production of rare isotopes. Because of the high beam powers and high energy loss with beam interception of material, the beam diagnostic designs are necessarily shifting to non-intercepting, real-time feedback devices that can be fully integrated with the accelerator machine protection system (MPS) and operation control system including online models. Appropriate for these applications, three types of beam diagnostics (lanthanum bromide scintillation coincidence detectors, GaN neutron and gamma detectors, and beam position monitors) are presented.

Comparison of Beam Diagnostics for 3rd and 4th Generation Ring-based Light Sources

This talk will present the challenges and progress required in beam instrumentation for next generation storage-ring light sources. These light sources aim at small natural emittance of approximately 100 pm rad in order to achieve much higher brightness than the present 3rd generation light sources. This small emittance is realized by a multi-bend lattice, which has a small dynamic aperture of only several mm, a small beam size of approximately 10 microns, etc. Therefore, the beam orbit must be precisely measured by beam position monitors (BPM) for the orbit correction and the beam size should be monitored with less than 10-micron resolution in order to estimate the beam emittance. A bunch-by-bunch feedback system is also required for the suppression of various instabilities coming from narrow beam chamber. In addition, since the stable tune region is small, a real-time tune monitor is demanded for the tune correction. We introduce leading-edge instrumentation techniques to overcome these difficulties, comparing with of 3rd generation light sources.

For the research program with cooled antiprotons at FAIR a dedicated 70 MeV, 70 mA proton injector is required. The main acceleration of this room temperature linac will be provided by six CH cavities operated at 325 MHz. Within the last years, the assembly and tuning of the first power prototype was finished. The cavity was tested with a preliminary aluminum drift tube structure, which was used for precise frequency and field tuning. Afterwards, the final drift tube structure has been welded inside the main tanks and the galvanic copper plating has taken place at GSI workshops. This paper will report on the recent advances with the prototype as well as on the current status of the overall p-Linac project.

The overall layout of the High Energy Beam Transport (HEBT) System of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR)* did not change since its last presentation in 2008**. All necessitated adaptions as for example due to the introduction of the Modularized Start Version (MSV, module 0-3) of FAIR*** could be smoothly implemented. In the meanwhile the HEBT system is in its realisation phase with the procurement of its main components in progress. In the following adaptions of the system layout not yet covered in ** are summarized and an overview of the technical system design and procurement status are presented.

CERN Linac4 is made of a 3 MeV front end including a 45 keV source , a 3 MeV Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) and a fast chopper, followed by a 50 MeV Drift Tube Linac (DTL), a 100 MeV Cell-Coupled Drift Tube Linac (CCDTL) and a 160 MeV Pi-Mode Structure (PIMS). The Linac4 beam commissioning is performed in 6 stages of increasing energy. Movable beam diagnostics benches, with various instruments, are used at each step to allow the detailed characterisation of operational parameters that will play a key role in the overall future performance. The first three stages of the commissioning, up to 12 MeV beam energy, have been completed at the end of 2014. The RFQ and the chopper line at 3 MeV, as well as the first tank of the DTL at 12 MeV were fully characterised, using permanent diagnostic instruments and a movable diagnostic bench equipped with a spectrometer, a slit-grid emittance meter, a Bunch Shape Monitor, Beam Position Monitors and a laser-emittance device. This paper reports on the strategy and the results of the commissioning up to 12 MeV. It also presents the validation of the set-up strategy, which is essential for the next stages of commissioning.
