Commissioning of the first drift tube linac module in the ground test accelerator

Description

The Ground Test Accelerator (GTA) has the objective of verifying much of the technology required for producing high-brightness, high-current H- beams. GTA commissioning is staged to verify the beam-dynamics design of each major accelerator component as it is brought online. The major components are the 35-keV H- injector, the 2.5-MeV radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ), the intertank matching section (IMS), the 3.2 MeV first 2βλ drift tube linac (DTL-1) module, and the 24-MeV GTA with 10 DTL modules. Results from the DTL-1 beam experiments will be presented
