Measurement and optimization of the lattice functions in the debuncher ring at Fermilab
PDF Version Also Available for Download.
Description
Tevatron Run-II upgrade requires substantial increase of antiproton production. The central step towards this goal is maximizing the Debuncher ring admittance which necessitates detailed understanding of the Debuncher optics and aperture limitations. The method of the response matrix optimization has been used to determine quadrupole errors and to build a model of machine optics. We estimate that the model predicts beta-functions with accuracy of about 5% mainly limited by Beam Position Monitor system resolution and small number of steering elements in the machine. The improvements of optics model were used to redesign Debuncher optics so that the beam envelopes would …
