Abstract
Tomographic phase space reconstruction method based on the beam dynamics code Travel is applied to the RAON linear accelerator in the LEBT and in the MEBT. Due to the low beam energy and the two dipoles in the LEBT, it matters to include the space charge effect and the second-order effects of dipoles. When compared with the Allison scanner emittance data in the LEBT, the phase space tomography demonstrates a very good agreement even though the actual beam is far from Gaussian. The method of fitting rms beam sizes of wire scanners is also compared with the phase space tomography method. The method of fitting rms beam sizes produces a very good agreement when the actual beam is close to Gaussian, because the beam size fitting method uses Gaussian input beam in the simulation.
期刊介绍:
Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.
Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
