Conceptual Design of a Branch Beam Line at HIRFL

In the case of matching the parameters between the SFC and the SSC, a stripper was installed in between the beam transport line connecting the two accelerators. The singly charged beam from SFC will turn into multi-charged one when it goes through the stripper and only the most intensive charged beam particles will be transported to SSC. In order to collect the surplus beam particles with other charge states for experiment as well, a new branch beam line is designed behind the exit of the original BL1-B2 dipole. Fig.l shows the layout of the newly designed beam line (with the dashed components in the figure).

兰州大学设计研发的ZF-400强流中子发生器设计D-T中子产额6×1012 n/s，主要由ECR离子源、低能束流传输线（LEBT）、加速管、旋转靶等部分组成。LEBT负责将从离子源引出的束流进行分析聚焦并注入到加速管中。LEBT对束流的聚焦及分析的好坏程度决定了加速管中束流的损失程度、中子的产额以及靶的寿命。本工作就该强流中子发生器所需的低能传输线进行了设计。使用螺线管、分析磁铁和四极透镜组合的方案。利用TRACK软件对此方案进行模拟，得到符合要求的束流线及元件的参数。用TraceWin进行了验证模拟，验证结果符合要求。另外，通过软件模拟确定了杂质离子损失的位置，据此设计了束流管道冷却方案。通过模拟发现，这种透镜的组合方式可以让整个LEBT以较低的功率获得低损失、高纯度的打靶束流。The ZF-400 Intense Neutron Generator, which is designed by Lanzhou University with an expected neutron yield of 6×1012 n/s, is consist of ECR ion source, low energy beam transport (LEBT) line, accelerating tube and rotating target. The beam extracted from ECR source is analyzed and focused through LEBT, then, the beam is introduced into the accelerating tube. The focus and analysis ability of LEBT is very important for the beam loss, neutron yield and target's life. A LEBT line for intense neutron generator is designed in this paper, the project consisted of a solenoid, a bend magnet and three quadrupole lens. The qualified LEBT and its parameters have been got through the simulation with TRACK code. Then TraceWin program was employed to check this simulation and the result satisfied our requirement. Besides, the loss position of impurity ions was known through the simulation, and a project of beam line's cooling system was designed according to this result. Through the simulation, we find the optimal lens combination plan which can obtain lower beam loss and higher beam purity at low running power of LEBT.

低能强流质子束空间电荷补偿度研究(英文)

对于低能强流离子束来说,空间电荷效应的存在将导致束流发散、发射度增加等一系列问题,从而降低束流品质。幸运的是,当束流由离子源引出通过低能传输线时会与其中的剩余气体发生电离反应,产生二次电子与二次离子;二次电子在束流自身产生的电场作用下,在束流中积累并中和部分空间电荷,达到抑制空间电荷效应的效果。为了测量空间电荷中和程度,中国科学院近代物理研究所研制了一台三栅网式能量分析仪用以测量电离过程中产生的二次离子能量来间接计算空间电荷中和度。实验结果表明,对于40 keV, 18.5 mA的质子束,真空度为1.510*3 Pa 时得到最佳补偿度;真空度一定的情况下,空间电荷补偿度随束流流强增加而变大。For high-intensity low-energy ion beams, space charge effect is a main cause of beam divergence  and emittance growth. Fortunately, residual gas molecules in the drift space tend to be ionized and neutralize the beam space charge spontaneously. The level of Space Charge Neutralization (SCN)is measured through the detection of created secondary ion energy distribution in the beam region. A so-called non-interceptive Three-grid Energy Analyzer (TEA) has been designed and manufactured at Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IMP). This paper will present the detailsof the TEA detector and the application to diagnose proton beam SCN level in the Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) line. As a preliminary result, for an 18.5 mA proton beam a best compensating point appears at the vacuum pressure of 1.510*3 Pa. And the neutralization level is advanced with thegrowth of beam current in a constant vacuum pressure.

The PBGUNS code was used to simulate the 1# and 2# extraction systems of proton ion beam. The emittance measurement results with the two different extraction systems were compared and analyzed with the simulation, the conclusion that more high quality beam extracted from 2# system than 1# system was got. The formula derivation of ECR ion source extraction system spherical aberration and MATLAB drawing was done by the analyzing on the distribution of extraction field equipotentials, effective emittance increasing caused by spherical berration was proved by 1# and 2# extraction systems beam phase space simulation result, beam focusing would be improved if electrode hole size increasing appropriately and a general concept on good optics focusing of ion beam extraction system was proposed finally.

基于KONUS束流动力学理论，完成了一台工作频率为162.5 MHz、占空比为1%的交叉指型漂移管直线注入器（IH-DTL）的动力学设计。该IH-DTL内置两套三组合四极透镜，共有41个加速单元，可为同步加速器提供流强400 eμA、能量4 MeV/u的C4+束流。在动力学设计过程中着重对每个加速间隙的同步能量偏差、注入相位和间隙电压等参数进行优化，使得该IH-DTL的横向归一化RMS接收度达到0.24 πmm·mrad，且横纵向归一化发射度增长小于10%，有利于提高同步环的注入效率。然后根据动力学设计的结构参数进行IH-DTL的高频仿真计算，将得到的三维电磁场分布导入PIC粒子跟踪程序中进行束流动力学模拟。动力学模拟结果显示，束流在IH-DTL出口的横向自然发射度小于13 πmm·mrad，达到了同步环的注入要求，而且在7%的垂直二极场分量下，束流中心的横向偏移在±0.5 mm以内，整体的束流传输效率高于99%。An interdigital H-mode drift tube linac (IH-DTL) with KONUS beam dynamic has been designed, which operation frequency was chosen 162.5 MHz. This IH-DTL consists of 41 accelerating cells and two quadrupole magnets triplets, can provide the C4+ with the current of 400 eμA and energy of 4 MeV/u for the synchrotron. In the beam dynamic design, the synchronous particle energy, inject RF phase and the acceleration voltage of each gap are optimized carefully to make the transverse normalized RMS acceptance of the IH-DTL to be 0.24 πmm·mrad and the beam emittance growth small than 10%. Then the RF structure was designed and the 3D electromagnetic field was imported into the PIC particle tracking code for the beam dynamic simulation. The transverse beam emittance at the exit of the IH-DTL is small than 13πmm·mrad which meets the injection requirement of the synchrotron. What is more, under the 7% vertical dipole fields component, the offset between the beam center and the drift tube's axis is ±0.5 mm at most. The transmission efficiency of the IH-DTL is higher than 99% for the whole beam in the acceptance.

Enhancing the accelerated beam current in the booster synchrotron by optimizing the transport line beam propagation

In this paper, we present the results of transverse beam emittance and twiss parameter measurement of an electron beam, delivered by a 20 MeV microtron which is used as a pre-injector system for a booster synchrotron in the Indus Accelerator Facility at RRCAT Indore. Based on these measured beam parameters, beam optics of a transport line was optimized and its results are also discussed in this paper. This beam transport line is used to transport the electron beam from the 20 MeV microtron to the booster synchrotron. The booster synchrotron works as a main injector for Indus-1 and Indus-2 synchrotron radiation facilities. To optimize the beam optics of a transport line for proper beam transmission through the line as well as to match the beam twiss parameters at the beam injection point of another accelerator, it is necessary to know the transverse beam emittance and twiss parameters of the beam coming from the first one. A MATLAB-based GUI program has been developed to calculate the beam emittance and twiss parameters, using quadrupole scan method. The measured parameters have been used for beam transport line optimization and twiss parameters matching at booster injection point. After this optimization, an enhancement of ～50% beam current has been observed in the booster synchrotron.
