Beam test of the RFQ linac TALL

Description

Field tuning and beam test of the RFQ linac TALL were done. The machine is designed to accelerate heavy ions with charge to mass ratio of 1 ∼ 1/7. The acceleration cavity is of four vane structure driven with a single loop coupler. The cavity is 58 cm in diameter and 730 cm in length. No vane coupling ring is used. A field uniformity was obtained within an error of +/- 2% azimuthally and +/- 5% longitudinally by use of side inductive and end capacitive tuners. The TE210 mode was tuned at 101.3 MHz, 0.9 MHz lower than that of the closest mode TE111. Beam test was done by using proton beams. Transmission exceeding 90% was obtained. Energy and its magnet as T = 825 keV and AT/T = 1.6% in FWHM. They agree with calculated values
