This paper describes the measurement of the transverse, two-dimensional profile of the high current proton beam in the linac at the Tsinghua University, by tomography mapping using a rotatable multi-wire scanner. The experiment is conducted at a beam energy of 3 MeV, a peak current of up to 32 mA, a repetition frequency of 20 Hz, and a beam pulse width of 50 μs. The transverse density distribution is reconstructed utilizing the algebraic reconstruction technique (ART), by using the beam profiles measured at different rotation angles. The beam profile, measured at a fixed rotation angle, is obtained by 19 parallel carbon wires mounted on one board of the wire scanner monitor (WSM) moving along a straight line with a step increment of 0.1 mm. The results gathered from the computer tomography (CT) method could be verified by an independent profile measurement downstream of a multiple-slit aperture. This paper presents first measurement results of the high current proton beam during normal operation of the linac at the Tsinghua University. A dynamic range of 10^{2} for the two-dimensional distribution was achieved. |
