The heavy ion synchrotron SIS

  • 1. Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung mbH, Darmstadt (Germany)

Description

A description is given of the heavy ion synchrotron SIS, which is part of the new SIS/ESR facility at GSI. The important design features related to the acceleration of heavy ions are described. The precise control of focusing is supported by a novel type of power supplies. Operation of the SIS in a time-shared mode with slow extraction for target experiments and with fast extraction for ESR injection is used routinely. The operation concepts are reported, which allow a precise control of all machine parameters. The beam diagnostic equipment for beams of 103 to 1010 ions per pulse is shortly discussed. Typical beam parameters for the external beams are presented. Finally, near future developments are summarized. (author) 7 refs.; 11 figs
