LEIR Schottky Where and what is Tank 2 and what has changed? Xmas 23.11.2012 Use the LEIR Schottky system as a spectrometer to determine the change in momentum distribution from LINAC3. Where and what is Tank 2 and what has changed? LEIR Schottky Ion Source Tank2 LINAC3

More injected beam -> 100% beam loss at RF capture Xmas 29.11.2013 More injected beam -> 100% beam loss at RF capture
Electron beam positions ion beam in energy space Xmas 29.11.2013 Electron beam positions ion beam in energy space Cold electrons Hot electrons 0V Uc Less hot Ions Hot Ions Electron cooling Ekin=e-(Uc+Ue+Ui) vele Δveli Cooling RF adjust Frevcorr necessary
Xmas Solved. 29.11.2013 Different LEIR ion beam intensities results in different acceleration loss (20% to 100%). Correcting Frevcorr brings back the beam. Trev. Tomoscope @ RF capture before Tomoscope @ RF capture after
