MOOA01 | Instrumentation Requirements for Different Accelerator Types | 1 |
|
||
At present more than 15000 particle accelerators exist worldwide, being built and optimised to handle a large variety of particle beams for basic research and applications in industry and medicine. Diagnostic tools have been developed and optimised according to the special requirements of these machines and to meet the demands of their users. Storage rings for ultra cooled heavy ion beams, third generation synchrotrons for the production of high brilliant radiation, super conducting protons machines working at the energy frontier and finally linear electron accelerators for FEL applications or high energy physics are just the most prominent representatives of the large variety of accelerators and each of them needs highly sophisticated tools to measure and optimise the corresponding beam parameters. Accordingly the issue addressed here is not to cover in full detail the different diagnostic devices but rather to concentrate on the aspects and needs as seen by the accelerator physicists and machine designers. |
