BPMs and Beam Stability

Invited Oral

A wideband vertical intra-bunch feedback system is in development at the CERN SPS for use to control potential Ecloud and TMCI instabilities. The work is motivated by planned intensity increases from the LIU and HL-LHC upgrade programs. System technical features include pickups, upgraded kickers and related RF power amplifiers, analog processing with 1 GHz bandwidth, with a with 4 GS/sec...

Beam Charge Monitors and Other Instruments

Contributed Oral

The new Embedded Online-Radiation-Monitoring-System, developed for the 17.5 GeV superconducting European XFEL (E-XFEL) that is currently being built between the DESY campus at Hamburg and Schenefeld at Schleswig-Holstein [1,2], has been commissioned in a first system test setup at the E-XFEL Injector. As most of the electronic systems for machine control, diagnostics and safety of the E-XFEL...

Beam Charge Monitors and Other Instruments

Contributed Oral

A high critical temperature (HTc) superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) beam current monitor (SQUID monitor) has been built and installed in the beam transport line in the radioactive isotope beam factory (RIBF) at RIKEN in Japan. The SQUID monitor can measure the DC current of heavy-ion beams non-destructively at high resolution. Unlike at other existing facilities, as a low...
