1 electron beams in order to sense nm-size mechanical vibrations? CERN: Marek Gasior: BBQ electronics (Andrea Boccardi: VME electronics) Juergen Pfingstner: Beam measurements Magnus Sylte: Vibration measurements Hermann Schmickler: not much useful CESR: Mark Palmer, Mike Billing, operations crew and the valuable support at “lightning speed” of John Barley Report on machine experiments at CESR in June 2009 And possible future experiment.

2 Necessary complementary verification ? The demonstration of the stabilization of the magnet (=Magnetic field?) is based on “zero” signals of electromechanical sensors on the outer shell of the magnet. The physical size of the sensors do not allow to mount them close to the pole tips or inside the magnet. Pole tip vibrations, coil vibrations might exist without the outer monitors measuring them. The limited number of monitors might not catch all vibrations. Question: can another physical process be used to verify the stability of the magnetic field?  try a high energetic low emittance particle beam

3 Validation of Quad stabilization principle (1/2) Stabilized Quad Standard Quad Calibrated mechanical exciter High sensitivity BPM

4 experimental set-up Excitation of beam with a vertical orbit corrector dipole, direct connection to dipole coil (Q10W) Observation of beam oscillations on vertical pickups with modified BBQ electronics (Q8W) heavy downsampling in special acquisition cards, up to 17 minutes measurement time. Calibration of the system using a 300 um peak-peak oscillation measured in parallel with BBQ system and local orbit system. Various beam conditions, partial shutdown of injector complex etc… 4 measurement shifts Very friendly and effective support by CESR team

5 Diode detectors on PU-Q8W

6 Getting BPM resolutions below the nm Aperture of BPM approx. 50 mm or more Wide band electronics thermal noise limit: 10^-5 of aperture Narrow band front-end gains factor 10…100 State of the art commercial BPM system (“Libera Brilliance”) reaches 5nm/sqrt(Hz), i.e. with 1000 s measurement time 150 pm rms noise. Different approach: BBQ electronics: “Zoom in” getting high sensitivity for beam oscillations, but loosing absolute information of DC = closed orbit information.

7 Amplitude Calibration Measured in parallel with turn by turn orbit system: measured amplitude: 300 um pp ~ 100 um rms

8 Simultaneous excitation with 6 different tones @ 17.2 mA rms each

9 4 um reference tone @ 20 Hz 1 nm line

10 40 pm FFTs averagedsigma 118,07 pm 223,67 pm Noise evaluation Ratio: 4,92 sqrt 22 = 4,69 18 pm in 47 s measurement time = 0.12 nm/sqrt(Hz) Compare to Libera Brillance with 0.25 um @ 2KHz = 5nm/sqrt(Hz)

11 Is all we measure beam motion? There is more signal with the synchrotron off What is this pedestal?

12 PM to AM demodulation of Rf-noise With the BBQ detection principle the system is sensitive to hase jitter of the RF, i.e. jitter of the revolution time.

13 Additional possible explanation Dispersion at the pickup: Rf phase jitter (= jitter in revolution time = jitter in beam energy) Translates into position variation: dx = D * Dp/p Let us say D= 10cm a Dp/p of 10-6 already expalins 100 nm fake motion.

14 1 nm line Perspectives for the future Feedback Off Feedback ON Priority 1: Understand this shoulder Priority 2: Prepare a detailed experiment of a stabilized PM magnet in CESR-TA

15 NLC prototype magnet PM magnet 180 Tesla/m measured at 5mm Adjustable to 144 Tesla/m 12 mm aperture About 15 cm long 2 pieces available at FNAL (J.Volk)

16 Conclusions and Perspectives An electron beam (tens of um beam size) can be used to sense disturbances (vibrations) down to the sub-nm level - using an optimized BBQ electronics - using about 10^9 samples in 17 minutes measurement time In the observed spectra at CESR-TA we need to understand the frequency range below 80 Hz. We need to clarify what fraction of this is PM-AM demodulation of RF-phase jitter and what comes from residual dispersion. We need to find a cure for the problem. PSI will receive us 25-28 October for the same measurement with the following changes: - a more stable machine - parallel measurement of Rf-phase noise - only vertical pickup - prepared dispersion bumps CESR-TA will possibly except to have a CLIC quad installed  (for all machines): not the real CLIC quad: higher aperture, lower strength… the NLC prototype would be OK. Presently we study the CESR optics in order to calculate the amplitude factor between quad motion and visible amplitude in the BPM. This factor can be much bigger than 1!
