Beam transport possibilities of the low energy beam transport system (LEBT) of the new 50 MeV LINAC

Year: 1977

Type: article

Abstract: The LEBT of the new 50 MeV Linac is analysed with respect to its capability of transporting pre-injector beams of different intensi ties and emittances ; the situation in the transverse phase space is of main concern.Some formulae showing general features of triplet focusing are derived ; they are useful for the design and assessment of limitations of a beam transport system.The LEBT acceptance is also calculated and the limitations indicated ; in this respect, a general focusing diagram is presented, which, by appropriate scaling remains valid for all beams.For the operation of LEBT, a procedure of setting the focusing parameters is described ; it makes use of the existing beam measuring possibilities and of the on-line beam transport program TRACE.Some examples are given.
