Outline ● Basic principles of the large angle radiation monitor ● First prototype of the detector for CESR and results of the experiment ● ¼ of the full scale prototype of the BR detector for CESR-c and status of its installation ● Summary
Motivations for Large Angle Beamstrahlung Monitor ➢ Physical motivations were discussed in numerous publications and preprints, i.e. G. Bonvicini, J. Welch, NIM 418, 223,1998; CBN 98-12, etc. ➢ The idea is to exploit a large angle (comparing to ~1 beamstrahlung radiation from the beam-beam scattering at I.P. for monitoring of the beam quality parameters. ● In the short magnet approximation the radiation signal from the beam on beam scattering is expected in the IR range, nm, 100% polarized (with factorized spec. & polar.) ● VIS or NIR ranges can be used for background subtraction. ➢ Notes on detector and optics design, simulation: CBN 98-12; CBN PR E59, 4584, 1999; + conference presentations.
Degrees of freedom at beam-beam scattering ● 7 d.o.f. Are important for luminosity tuning ● Radiating power, its spectral-angular distribution and polarization also depend on these d.o.f. ● We may measure the photon yield for two polarizations for both beams at two angle
Expected BR signal for beam-beam misplacements
The Program of Experimental Study ● Stage 1: Radiation Profile Monitor ➢ Exp:Feb Feb.2003 ➢ Use it for alignment of equipment ➢ Estimation of the rates in VIS/NIR/IR spectrum ➢ Search for the signal from beam-beam scattering ➢ Observe the expected profile of radiation ● Stage 2: ¼ of the full scale Beamstrahlung Monitor ➢ Exp:Aug.2003-June 2004 ➢ Proof of principle optics, detector and experiment ➢ Alignment of equipment ➢ Study of the photon yield features for IR and VIS ranges and two polarization at fixed angular location ● Stage 3: Full scale 4 angular locations
Scheme of Radiation Profile Monitor ● Results (see next slides): ✔ Alignment ✔ Estimation of rates for radiation in VIS, NIR ranges (IR PMT requers T < -30C) ✔ We have observed an expected profile from SR ✔ First attempt to see the radiation from beam- beam NIR range

BR Detector at CESR ● All parts and optics are in hands ● IR/VIS PMT-s have been tested ● BR Detector will be installed at CESR by the end of July 2003 ● Then we plan an alignment & physics shifts depending on status of CESR-c
Summary ● Beamstrahlung radiation looks very attractive for beam quality monitoring. ● Preliminary calculations shows the feasibility of the large angle BR detector. ● First prototype had been tested and shows an expected profile of the background radiation from I.P. Region in VIS and NIR ranges. ● ¼ of full scale prototype is going to be in July 2003 for experiments with BR.
