| Beam Diagnostics By Gating A Single Bunch At Kekb (2007) | |||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||
| A fast gate module has been developed at KEKB, which can pick up a signal of one bunch along a bunch train.Thegatemodulewasattachedtoatune measurement system and to a turn-by-turn beam-position monitor system. Continuous monitoring of the betatron tune is an indispensable tool to keep the machine in a stable condition. A measurement of the tune along a bunch train is helpful to estimate the photoelectron cloud density in the Low-Energy Ring (LER). A large tune shift was observed in the High-Energy Ring (HER). The bunch phase is shifted along a train, which can be explained using a periodic transient beam-loading effect. | |||||||||||||
