Beam-distribution system for multi-axis imaging at the Advanced Hydrotest Facility
PDF Version Also Available for Download.
Description
The Advanced Hydrotest Facility is to provide a time sequence of multiple radiographic images using a proton beam produced by a 50-GeV synchrotron. We give an overview of the approaches devised to produce up to twelve simultaneous radiographic images of an object by a sequence of beam-transport lines. The required distribution system has undergone a parametric study that optimizes its configuration within operational constraints. These constraints and our approach to configuration optimization for both superconducting and normal-conducting transport lines are described. Additionally, we describe the optics stratagems that were devised to meet system requirements.
