Tune Measurements in the SPS as a Multicycling Machine

Throughout the operation cycle of the SPS different particles are accelerated : High intensity protons, leptons and heavy ions. For each particle type a measurement of the betatron tunes along the acceleration cycle is required. The paper describes the different excitation and data analysis methods...

Sumario:Throughout the operation cycle of the SPS different particles are accelerated : High intensity protons, leptons and heavy ions. For each particle type a measurement of the betatron tunes along the acceleration cycle is required. The paper describes the different excitation and data analysis methods used in order to minimize beam blow-up during the measurements (protons) or in order to optimize the time resolution (leptons). Measurement examples are given.
