直线加速器驻波腔中的瞬态束流负载效应

在高能加速器中, 随着单个束团和束团串中电荷量的提高, 当粒子束穿过加速腔的时候, 感应出的瞬态束流负载电压也越来越高. 但是, 在通常分析束流负载的时候, 往往对稳态束流负载研究的比较多, 而对瞬态束流负载的研究要相对少一些. 本文首先对束流负载的瞬态特性和束团穿过加速腔时高频源所看到谐振腔谐振频率的变化方式进行了分析, 然后又对两种情况下谐振腔的最优失谐条件进行了讨论, 并给出了相应的解析公式. 在第1种情况下, 当粒子束穿过加速腔的时候, 谐振腔的自然谐振频率能够及时地得到调节, 从而使高频源的电流与谐振腔的腔压同相, 以提高高频源的效率; 在第2种情况下, 当粒子束穿过加速腔的时候, 谐振腔的自然谐振频率保持不变, 不能被调节. 最后, 还对BEPCⅡ现有预注入器的预聚束腔、BEPCⅡ未来预注入器的两个次谐波聚束腔中的瞬态束流负载效应进行了分析.     

Transverse profile expansion and homogenization at target for the injector Scheme-Ⅰ test stand of China-ADS

For the injector Scheme-Ⅰ test stand of the China-ADS (Accelerator Driven subcritical System), a beam with the maximum power of 100 kW will be produced and transported to the beam dump. To solve the very high thermal load problem at the dump, two measures are taken to deal with the huge power density at the target. One is to enlarge the contact area between the beam and the target, and this is to be accomplished by expanding the beam profile at the target and using slanted target plates. The other is to produce a more homogenous beam profile at the target to minimize the maximum power density. Here the beam dump line is designed to meet the requirement of beam expansion and homogenization at 3 different energies (3.2 MeV, 5 MeV and 10 MeV), and the step-like field magnets are employed for the beam spot homogenization. Taking into account the fact that the space charge effects are very strong at such low beam energies, the simulations have included space charge effects and errors which show that the beam line can meet the requirements very well. In the meantime, the alternative beam design using standard multipole magnets is also presented.

设计了工作于S波段的波导耦合型预聚束器和束流相位探测腔。为了增加功率容量,预聚束器采用波导耦合机制代替了传统的同轴耦合环耦合,而偏心圆结构的设计能够补偿因耦合窗口的引入导致的径向电场不对称,进一步改善了强流束流品质。预聚束器设计指标与测试结果:耦合系数1.73,空载品质因数2195,腔体谐振频率的可调范围为2 854.55~2 856.9 MHz。为实现测量束流相对射频脉冲的时间,进行强流输入功率补偿,选择了能够在线进行束流相位实时测量的束流相位探测腔,采用旋转对称结构,并通过两个同轴耦合环提取束流通过时激发的感应信号,作为直线相控系统的参考信号。束流相位探测腔设计与测试结果:空载品质因数2392,3dB带宽为2.05MHz,腔体谐振频率的可调范围为2 805.45~2 809.45MHz。所有器件的仿真设计与测试结果基本一致。     

作为BEPCII预注入器的光阴极注入器

 为了提高并且采用双束加速技术以进一步提高BEPCII正电子从直线加速器注入到储存环的速率,BEPCII(Beijing Electron Positron Collider Upgrade Project) 正在建造带有两个次谐波聚束腔的新预注入器。提出了使用光阴极注入器作为BEPCII预注入器的新方案,其性能优于次谐波聚束系统：发射度和能散至多为次谐波聚束系统的1/4,100%的传输效率,没有卫星束团的干扰,等。此外,还分别对光阴极注入器在高电荷量和低电荷量两种情况下的束流动力学进行了模拟计算和优化研究,并将其性能与正在建造的次谐波聚束系统和旧聚束系统的性能进行了比较和讨论。由此光阴极注入器产生的电子束还可以在将来用作激光-等离子体或激光-非传导性加速结构的尾场加速研究。     

Simulation studies on the polarized positron generation from circularly polarized gamma-rays

Polarized positrons can be generated through the electron-positron pair creation from circularly polarized gamma-rays hitting a conversion target. Laser-Compton scattering is an efficient method to generate circularly polarized gamma-rays. Simulation studies on these two processes have been done with the Monte Carlo codes, CAIN and GEANT4. Using CAIN to simulate the Laser-Compton scattering process, the energy spectrum of the generated polarized photons could be obtained. GEANT4 was used to study the yield, energy spectrum and the mean polarization of the positrons emanating from the conversion target. To increase the yield of the generated positrons, an optimization study on the thickness of conversion target was also performed.     

多条形电极束流能散度探测器的张角优化

 采用Surperfish对北京正负电子对撞机的多条形电极束流能散度探测器进行了电磁场模拟计算。在带模拟束流的情况下，计算分析了探测器对束流位置和能散度的分辨能力与电极张角之间的关系，首次计算了条形电极间的电容耦合综合强度。电极张角优化结果表明：在不考虑噪声水平的情况下，电极张角为20°时，探测器的灵敏度和分辨率达到最优。而当噪声影响很大时，可以适当增加电极张角，同时考虑减小噪声的措施。

Design and studies on the traveling wave transverse RF deflecting structure

With the development of free electron laser (FEL) and the international linear collider (ILC), the electron bunch length is getting smaller and smaller. The traveling-wave transverse RF deflecting structure is an important part of the RF deflecting method for bunch length measurement and phase space diagnostics. The operation mode in RF deflector is the ``TM₁₁-like' mode. Since the TM₁₁-like mode in this structure has a pair of degenerate dipole modes, two additional holes are provided on either side of each iris to stabilize the mode. The simulation and optimization have been done. A prototype has been fabricated and tested. The cold test results have been compared with the simulations of the first three modes.     

BEPCII Injector Linac Upgrade and Beam Instabilities

The upgrade project of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider （BEPCII） and its injector linac is working well. The linac upgrade aims at a higher injection rate of 5OmA/min into the storage ring, which requires an injected beam with low emittance, low energy spread and high beam orbit and energy stabilities. This goal is finally reached recently by upgrading the linac components and by dealing with rich and practical beam physics, which are described in this study.
