Beam Loss Due to Misalignments, RF Jitter and Mismatch in the Fermilab Project-X 3GeV CW Linac

Year: 2012

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of beam losses along the current design of the FNAL 3 GeV Superconducting CW linac.Simulations from the RFQ exit up to the end of the linac (∼440 meters) are performed using the beam dynamics codes TRACK and TRACEWIN.The impact of beam mismatch, element misalignments and RF jitter on the beam dynamics is discussed and corresponding beam loss patterns are presented.A correction scheme to compensate for misalignments is described.
