A 52 quadrupole-magnet FODO lattice has been assembled and operated at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The purpose of this lattice is to provide a platform to measure the resulting beam halo as the first four magnets of the lattice produce various mismatch conditions. These data are then compared with particle simulations so that halo formation mechanisms may be better understood. The lattice is appended to the LEDA 6.7-MeV radiofrequency quadrupole (RFQ) and is followed by a short high-energy beam transport (HEBT) that safely dumps the beam into a 670-kW beam stop. Beam diagnostic instruments are interspersed within the lattice and HEBT. The primary instruments for measuring the beam halo are nine interceptive devices that acquire the beam's horizontal and vertical projected particle density distributions out to an approximate 10/sup 5/:1 dynamic range. These distributions are acquired using both traditional wire scanners and water-cooled graphite scraping devices. The lattice and HEBT instrumentation set also includes position, bunched-beam current, pulsed current, and beam loss measurements. This paper briefly describes and details the operation of each instrument compares measured data from the different types of instruments, and refers to other detailed papers. |
