Study of losses during Continuous Transfer Extraction at CERN Proton Synchrotron

The proton beams used for the fixed target physics at the SPS are extracted from the PS at 14 GeV/c in five turns, using a technique called Continuous Transfer (CT). During this extraction, large losses are observed in straight sections were the machine aperture should be large enough to accommodate...

description The proton beams used for the fixed target physics at the SPS are extracted from the PS at 14 GeV/c in five turns, using a technique called Continuous Transfer (CT). During this extraction, large losses are observed in straight sections were the machine aperture should be large enough to accommodate the circulating beam without any loss. These losses are due to particles scattered by the electrostatic septum used to slice the beam and defocused by a quadrupole used during the extraction. Simulations and experimental results are presented.
