PS2 WG

• Injection and extraction systems– Basics and assumptions– Injection– Extraction– Other issues

Basics• Assumptions made to define an entry point

– Maintain a regular (FODO) lattice in the injection/extraction regions.– 21 m cell length.– 7 m ‘free’ drift per half-cell available to accommodate beam transfer elements (in fact this

could go to about 8.5 m at a push).– Dispersion function matched to ~zero in these regions (assume < 0.5 m).– Count on enlarged quadrupoles with 85 mm good field regions (c.f. 50 mm assumed for the

regular quads…).– Extraction trajectory via enlarged quadrupole coil windows, a la SPS, with the beam

experiencing only linear fields.– Kicker and septum apertures/elements kept outside canonical half-aperture of 50 mm at

beta of 33 m (corresponds to about 300 .mm.mrad geometric acceptance).– Injection energy 1.4 GeV/3.5 GeV, extraction energy range is 50/75 GeV.– Optics and layout identical for all versions at all energies.– H/V beam emittances are assumed to be 15/8 .mm.mrad.– From the SPL, the H- beam emittance is assumed to be 1 .mm.mrad (?).– Lattice quadrupole yokes are 700 x 700 mm for standard types, and 900 x 900mm for

enlarged types. The enlarged types are 2.2 m long, c.f 1.75 m for the standard elements. Reasonable?

Injection

• Fast Injection – A classical single-turn type injection system (orbit bump, septum,

fast kicker) with variable kick length is needed from the very beginning, when the PS2 will operate with the present injectors.

– The system will have to cover the energy range from 1.25 GeV (proton equivalent for ion injection from LEIR) to 3.5 GeV, i.e. a maximum magnetic rigidity of B = 14.5 Tm.

– For the fast kicker the required pulse length is up to 2.5 s, with rise and fall time of ≤100 ns. The maximum vertical beam size (3) at injection will be ±25 mm.

– This classical single-turn injection system will always be needed for ion operation.

Fast injection• Lattice implications: 2 half-cells, with one QDA in the centre.

Fast injection - hardware

• Injection kicker HKI– Need about 100 ns rise/fall time and 7 mrad angle (120 mm

offset with average beta of 25 m and sin of 0.7) – 16.6 system operating at maximum of 65 kV to give ~100 ns

rise time and 0.101 Tm, in 4.5 m installed length.– Still looks fairly comfortable;

• Injection septum MSI– Need about 200 mrad (2 m lever arm, 400 mm deflection to miss

adjacent quad).– Septum width about 22 mm.– With the aperture available this can be a 3 m long out-of-vacuum

magnet, with 16 turn coil and slowly pulsed.

Charge exchange injection• H- injection system if PSB is replaced by SPL type machine and not RCS.

– Injection septum and a short special dipole housing the stripping foil. – Fast orbit bumps (horizontal and vertical) will be needed to allow for so-called

phase space painting during the injection process (≤100 turns i.e. ≤500 s). – Dumps for the partially or unstripped H0 and H- beams are needed. The injection

energy will be 3.5 GeV, corresponding to a magnetic rigidity of B = 14.5 Tm.

• There may be a need for a dedicated insertion in the lattice– SNS H- injection at 1 GeV (!) takes up one of four straights, a total of 32 m. Two

quadrupole doublets, two 6 m straights, one 12 m straight for injection chicane. – Issues are maximum dipole field H- beam can traverse, to avoid magnetic

stripping (SNS: <0.3 T for 1 GeV). Scaling factor for dipole length is quoted as ()2, so for PS2 3.5 GeV injection energy would imply 6 m injection dipole!

Extraction

• Fast extraction for SPS filling for LHC

• CT extraction for SPS filling for FT

• Slow extraction for PS2 FT physics

Slow extraction• Assume classical 1/3 integer scheme

– Extraction angle of 40 mrad, to reach coil window gap at downstream QD– Electrostatic septum (about 1.2 mrad)– Thin, medium and extraction septum magnets (‘DC’), providing ~40 mrad.– Horizontal orbit bumpers, providing ~1.2 mrad.– Special sextupole magnets in the lattice at suitable phases. – Some passive shielding of elements downstream of the ES

• ES is located about 270º in phase upstream of the MS, to allow space for extraction kicker elements in the intervening half-cells.

Limitations and scaling• Extraction magnet MS3

– Need about 25 mrad (5 m lever arm, 125 mm additional deflection needed to extract the beam out through a suitable quadrupole coil window).

– Septum width about 30 mm.– Can probably make this outside vacuum with several turns (assumed 12).– Limit is 1.5 T in gap (saturation).– Space required at 75 GeV goes to about 4.7 m (from 3.5 m at 50 GeV).

Limitations and scaling• Extraction kicker HK

– Need about 1.6 mrad to give 16 mm opening at MS1 (assuming 15 m average beta and sin ~0.7).

– Rise time assumed to be 150 ns – determined basically by inductance of the magnet L = o w.l/g.

– Characteristic system impedance assumed to be 10 .– Technological limit is 65 kV switch voltage.– Space required at 75 GeV goes to about 9.5 m (from 7.0 m in 50 GeV version).

HK limitations• Space requirement s a problem as we can no longer use the layout with two

HK per half-cell –system is already close to the limit for 50 GeV version. • The issue of the extraction kicker strength is not easy to overcome. Here the

requirements on the very fast rise time (150 ns) mean that the system has to have a very low inductance and therefore a relatively high characteristic impendence. This reduces the strength (current) of the magnet for a given applied voltage. Possible improvements could be obtained by:

– Reducing the characteristic impedance to 8.3 or 7.1 would mean 7.2 m magnetic or 5.4 m magnetic (but rise would increase to 190 or 250 ns).

– Reducing the vertical gap AND horizontal gap proportionately, since this keeps the inductance of the system and hence the rise time for a given current, while increasing the field. Note that just reducing the vertical gap does not work, as this increases the magnet inductance & hence rise time

– Reducing the required subsystem deflection• by extracting first across an ES or by keeping 50 GeV extraction energy for the CT

version;• by using both the HK1 and HK2 systems for the FE version;

Limitations and scaling• Extraction bumper HB

– Need about 1.6 mrad to give 25 mm bump at ES/MS1 (assuming 15 m average beta and sin ~0.7).

– Classical many-turn short dipoles – assume 0.3 m magnetic length.– Some enlarged H-aperture versions will be needed – Technological limit is 1.5 T field in gap (saturation).– Space required at 75 GeV stays at about 0.4 m.

Other thoughts

Inverting positions of ES and HK1 and 2 ?– would allow to use the ES in the CT process– open the possibility of a combined CT/slow extraction, with a thin

ES for low losses during the few turn extraction, to overcome the HK strength limitation.

– However, this would ‘use up’ the half cell presently free upstream of the ES, which could be used for the classical injection system.

Other thoughtsQuadrupole design• Enlarged quadrupoles (assumed to be designed with coil window

passages where only linear fields are present) will be required in the extraction regions, to accommodate the large excursions associated with the injected and extracted beams.

Main gap

SPS QDA

Other thoughts• Acceptance of TT2/TT10 line for 3.5 (1.25) GeV beams

• Length of line needed for matching into the SPS

• Final stripping of Pb54+ -> Pb82+ in PS2-SPS transfer line – low-beta insertion needed to minimise blow-up?

• Injection into the SPS at 50 (75) GeV– Present MKP kicker system runs at 0.05 T and about 200 ns rise

time….– Increasing from 26 to 50 (75) GeV injection would probably cost rise

time….even shortening present magnets from 0.7 m to 0.35 m modeules.

– Can the vertical gap decrease from present value….? Probably not…
