Experiments of synchrotron injection using the direct fast chopped H- beam extracted from surface-plasma-type negative hydrogen ion source

An experiment of synchrotron injection using the direct fast chopped H- beam extracted from a surface-plasma-type H- ion source has been successfully achieved. The injection phase of the fast chopped beam from linac into the booster synchrotron is adjustable against the center of rf bucket by using this beam. It was obtained that the longitudinal emittance was controlled at the extraction of the booster synchrotron, and that the beam loss during the injection into main ring of the KEK-PS was reduced by this fast chopped beam.
