The Development of Low-Q Cavity Type Beam Position Monitor with a Position Resolution of Nanometer for Future Colliders

The nano-meter beam size in future linear colliders requires very high resolution beam position monitor since higher resolution allows more accurate position measurement in the interaction point. We developed and tested a low-Q C-band beam position monitor with position resolution of nanometer. The C-band BPM was tested for the fast beam feedback system at the interaction point of ATF2 in KEK, in which C-band beam position monitor is called to IPBPM (Interaction Point Beam Position Monitor). The average position resolution of the developed IPBPMs was measured to be 10.1 nm at a nominal beam charge of $87\%$ of ATF2. From the measured beam position resolution, we can expect beam position resolution of around 8.8 nm and 4.4 nm with nominal ATF2 and ILC beam charge conditions, respectively, in which the position resolution is below the vertical beam size in ILC. In this paper, we describe the development of the IPBPM and the beam test results at the nanometer level in beam position resolution

Principal Component Analysis of Cavity Beam Position Monitor Signals

Model-independent analysis (MIA) methods are generally useful for analysing complex systems in which relationships between the observables are non-trivial and noise is present. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) is one of MIA methods allowing to isolate components in the input data graded to their contribution to the variability of the data. In this publication we show how the PCA can be applied to digitised signals obtained from a cavity beam position monitor (CBPM) system on the example of a 3-cavity test system installed at the Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) at KEK in Japan. We demonstrate that the PCA based method can be used to extract beam position information, and matches conventional techniques in terms of performance, while requiring considerably less settings and data for calibration.

Cavity beam position monitor system for the Accelerator Test Facility 2

The Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) is a scaled demonstrator system for final focus beam lines of linear high energy colliders. This paper describes the high resolution cavity beam position monitor (BPM) system, which is a part of the ATF2 diagnostics. Two types of cavity BPMs are used, C-band operating at 6.423 GHz, and S-band at 2.888 GHz with an increased beam aperture. The cavities, electronics, and digital processing are described. The resolution of the C-band system with attenuators was determined to be approximately 250 nm and 1 m for the S-band system. Without attenuation the best recorded C-band cavity resolution was 27 nm.

Present status and first results of the final focus beam line at the KEK Accelerator Test Facility

ATF2 is a final-focus test beam line which aims to focus the low emittance beam from the ATF damping ring to a vertical size of about 37 nm and to demonstrate nanometer level beam stability. Several advanced beam diagnostics and feedback tools are used. In December 2008, construction and installation were completed and beam commissioning started, supported by an international team of Asian, European, and U.S. scientists. The present status and first results are described.

Improvement of xenon purification system using a combination of a pulse tube refrigerator and a coaxial heat exchanger

We have developed a compact cryogenic system with a pulse tube refrigerator and a coaxial heat exchanger. This liquefaction-purification system not only saves the cooling power used to reach high gaseous recirculation rate, but also reduces the impurity level with high speed. The heat exchanger operates with an efficiency of 99%, which indicates the possibility for fast xenon gas recirculation in a highpressurized large-scale xenon storage with much less thermal losses.

Shintake Monitor in ATF2: Performance Evaluation

The beam test for the Shintake monitor succeeded in measuring signal modulation with the laser interference fringe pattern in November 2009. We have studied the error sources, and evaluated the systematic error to be less than 30% for 1 minute measurements. This paper centers on the evaluation of the Shintake monitor performance through analyzing beam tests deta. Most systematic error sources are well understood, enabling accurate measurement of the beam size when it reaches 37 nm.

R&D Status of ATF2 IP Beam Size Monitor (Shintake Monitor)

Shintake monitor is a nanometer-scale electron beam size monitor. It probes a electron beam by an interference fringe pattern formed by split laser beams. Minimum measurable beam size by this method is less than 1/10 of laser wavelength. In ATF2, Shintake monitor will be used for the IP beam size monitor to measure 37 nm (design) beam size. Development status of the Shintake monitor, including fringe phase monitoring and stabilization, gamma detector and collimators, is described. In addition, we discuss the beam size measurement by Shintake monitor in ILC.
