Experience with the residual gas ionization beam profile monitors at the DESY proton accelerators

  • 1. Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Hamburg (Germany)

Description

The first ionisation profile monitor (IPM) at DESY was installed at the end of 1988. Extended versions of the IPM with amplifications from micro channels plates (MCP) were installed in PETRA II in 1989 and in HERA in 1991. These nondestructive monitors are working in vacuum conditions better than 10-8 mbar. Profiles are acquired at beam energies between 50 MeV and 480 GeV and current from 0.01 μA to 70 mA. The spatial resolution has been studied and is described in detail. Readout is performed using phosphor screens viewed by various video cameras. The continuous video display at the operator console is very useful for beam studies and emittance measurements. (author) 8 refs.; 3 figs
