Studies of Beam Losses from Failures of SPS Beam Dump Kickers

The SPS beam dump extraction process was studied in detail to investigate the possibility of operation with reduced kicker voltage and to fully understand the trajectories and loss patterns of miss-kicked beam. This paper briefly describes the SPS beam dump process, and presents the tracking studies...

Sumario:The SPS beam dump extraction process was studied in detail to investigate the possibility of operation with reduced kicker voltage and to fully understand the trajectories and loss patterns of miss-kicked beam. This paper briefly describes the SPS beam dump process, and presents the tracking studies carried out for failure cases. The simulation results are compared to the results of measurements made with low intensity beam.
