Beam tomography in two and four dimensions. [100 MeV H/sup +/ beams and 750 keV H/sup -/ beams]

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

The coming generations of high beam-power accelerators require new techniques to monitor the emittance and the shape of the beam; in particular, measurements that do not interfere with the beam itself are necessary. A new computational algorithm, MENT (Maximum ENTropy), will be presented that combines nondestructive profile measurements taken from a number of stations along the beam line with beam-dynamics calculations to compute a four-dimensional phase-space distribution. A version of MENT has been used on experimental data to reconstruct the two-dimensional transverse emittance of the Clinton P. Anderson Meson Physics Facility (LAMPF) proton beam at 100 MeV and the H/sup … continued below

A new computational algorithm, MENT (Maximum ENTropy), will be presented that combines nondestructive profile measurements taken from a number of stations along the beam line with beam-dynamics calculations to compute a four-dimensional phase-space distribution. A version of MENT has been used on experimental data to reconstruct the two-dimensional transverse emittance of the Clinton P. Anderson Meson Physics Facility (LAMPF) proton beam at 100 MeV and the H/sup -/ beam at 750 keV. Wire scanners at three stations were used to get the one-dimensional profiles. Results will be compared with those gained using the destructive slit and collector method and with those gained using MART (Multiplicative Algebraic Reconstruction Technique) on the same three profiles.
