The progress of Beam Instrumentation for BEPCII Beam Instrumentation Group Accelerator Center, IHEP 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Outline Introduction Linac BI progress Ring BI progress Summary 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Introduction After the 3rd IMAC meeting, we took full advantage of the great opportunity that the BEPC was operating. Most of the monitor prototypes for storage ring had been tested with beam, such as MX-BPM, DCCT, TFB and so on. We think these test results can certainly promote our work. For the linac, we also did many experiments together with physics people. We measured the electron and positron emittance at different location, the beam energy and energy spread by using analyzing magnet of AM1 and AM3, beam current, two bunches acceleration and beam orbit along the linac by using BPM system. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BI The Linac Beam Instrumentation System consists of BPM, BCT, Emittance Measurement, Profile monitor and EPICS based DAQ system. In the last year, The DAQ system based on EPICS had been built and we successfully completed the system commissioning. There are 5 monitor stations along the linac gallery. Each monitor station consists of a VME computer, a gated integrator for BCT, and a log-ratio BPM, a DG535 for triggering and a signal-switching box. Each monitoring station can control 6 BPMs and 6 BCTs at maximum. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BPM Total of 20 BPM’s 15 Stripline BPMs at each quadruple triplets 1 Stripline BPMs at linac end, 1 Stripline BPMs at pre-injector end, 1 Stripline BPMs near AM3 2 button BPMs at gun exit A computer located in control room can acquire the beam position data through IOC and then to display the beam orbit in real time. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BPM Because of the budget, we have to adopt switching mode for the BPM system. In order to prolong the lifetime of the RF coaxial relay, the data-taking cycle speed at present is about 1Hz for one monitoring station. This data acquisition speed is enough for normal orbit measurement. But in some cases, the fast data-taking can help us to record the beam transverse position for every pulse. We ever considered to adopt solid-state MUX switches to achieve higher switch rates. But after the investigation, we find the solid-state switch has smaller signal dynamic range than coaxial relay and solid-state switch is easily to occur current leakage between different channels. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BPM The BPM data is used for the system resolution analysis. This figure shows a group of data of BPM5. The red line and blue line represent the BPM resolution (RMS values) in horizontal and vertical direction, respectively. This RMS values contain beam orbit oscillation and BPM system error. By comparing the horizontal and vertical direction, we think that the beam orbit oscillation is the main source to affect the system resolution of BPM. For BPM01 and BPM02, the beam position resolution of less than 100 m can be easily obtained. 0.15mm RMS value 0.43mm RMS value 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BI After BEPC shut down, the beam instrumentation system of linac was continually improved according to the operation situation. We improved the optical path of AM3 and positron target screen, a new alignment support for BPM01 and BPM02，a molybdenum mesh at the front of screen of PR1 and PR2 in order to avoid the static electron accumulating, and newly installed BPM and fluorescent screen monitor located at the downstream of AM3 and AM2, respectively. In order to measure the beam energy spread non-intrusively, a BPM with 8 stripline electrodes was installed in the large dispersion section of the transport line. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BI BPM01 and BPM02 are located at the gun exit. Due to the tight space, there was no support for these two BPMs to keep the relative position between the BPM and adjacent magnetic unchanged. This time we try to install a alignment support. Alignment support 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Linac BI 11 BPMs and 12 Collimators had been installed in transportline. Collimator will be used for the control of beam emittance and beam energy spread. In order to monitoring the transportation efficiency of positron, two beam charge monitors were installed at the end of linac and positron transportline, respectively. Beam Charge Monitor Collimator 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Summary of Linac BI The BPM system and beam profile monitor for the positron target play an important role when the positron beam commissioning. The BPM’s sensitivity is enough for the weak positron beam. The device of BCT, Emittance Measurement and Profile can work well. But for BPM system, sometimes the resolution (RMS value) is larger than 0.2mm. Maybe it is caused by the transverse wakefiled, beam energy fluctuation or others. The EMI issue is still to be. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Beam Position Monitor Almost all of BPM blocks have been manufactured by vendor. The cabling in the tunnel was finished. Near half of BPM blocks were calibrated in laboratory by using calibration antenna. The calibration results were double checked by physics group and our group. For the BPM DAQ system, an IOC for MX-BPM electronics had been developed and tested in laboratory. The prototype of digital BPM (Libera) was tested as well. It will be used for the turn-by-turn beam orbit measurement. As for the closed orbit feedback or IR feedback, the hardware is same with BPM system, but the control software will be developed by physics group and control group. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

The BCM system should work with the timing system of BEPCII. So we should discuss the data format and injection algorithm with the control group in further. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Synchrotron Light Monitor SRM layout First mirror 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Synchrotron Light Monitor The SRM detectors had been manufactured and assembled by vendor. After finished the vacuum checking, we started some experiments on alignment and calibration in our laboratory. The detector supports for the alignment and calibration had been modified according to the experiment results. This figure shows the detector was being aligned. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Synchrotron Light Monitor The calibration of the transverse magnification of the imaging system is needed to obtain measurements of absolute dimensions. This is done in a very simple way by sliding the lens. Displacing the lens a precise value in horizontal plane or vertical plane represents a transverse source point displacement of the same value (but of the opposite sign) and a displacement of the beam spot on the CCD camera of that value multiplied by the system-magnification. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Magnification (simulation value) Synchrotron Light Monitor The calibration of the transverse magnification Calibration results: Laser wavelength: 650nm Lens displacement = 0.150mm Image displacement = 0.3765mm Magnification = 3765/150 =2.51 wavelength Magnification (simulation value) 365nm 2.2 450nm 2.3422 550nm 2.4392 650nm 2.5 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Synchrotron Light Monitor Determine the SRM resolution: 10% of vertical beam size (~20 µm) The beam size is about 0.2mm in vertical direction. The magnification of the imaging system is 2.2 for 365nm light. A selected camera with specifications as blow: ·Number of effective TV Lines Pixels 736 (H) x 568 (V) ·Pixel size 11 µm (H) x 11 µm (V) ·Optical size 1/2 type So, the image size is 0.2mm x 2.2＝440µm. Corresponding number of pixels is 440µm / 11µm = 40. Resolution is 200µm / 40 = 5µm So, if the beam orbit is stable, then the system resolution will be good than 10% of vertical beam size. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

DCCT The new DCCT had been tested in BEPC. According to the experiment results, we modified the structure of ceramic pipe. In the machining process of ceramic pipe, the vendor met some difficulties on the Kovar welding. Finally, they solved this issue. New DCCT tested with beam 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting

Consideration to noise rejection DCCT Consideration to noise rejection   The noise caused by EMI and RFI can be demodulated in the readout instrument due to it’s high-impedance input. These interference's can be significantly reduces or eliminated by the use of common-mode filters. Simple common-mode filters can be made by passing the signal cable through a ferrite core. The magnetic characteristics of the ferrite cores must correspond to the frequency spectrum of the noise to be rejected. To reject differential mode noise, install a ceramic capacitor between signal wire and ground at the input of the readout instrument. Moreover, we hope the BEPCII new grounding system can make effects to reduce the noise in further. 2018/9/22 4th-IMAC meeting
