Analysis of the performance of the SPS extraction channel equipment in 1997

In 1997 the SPS ran with high proton intensities (peak above 4.8x1013 protons per pulse) at 450 GeV/c, essential for the neutrino physics program. The SPS also provided lepton beams at 22 GeV for injection into LEP. The equipment used to extract the proton beams is generally very sensitive to the se...

description In 1997 the SPS ran with high proton intensities (peak above 4.8x1013 protons per pulse) at 450 GeV/c, essential for the neutrino physics program. The SPS also provided lepton beams at 22 GeV for injection into LEP. The equipment used to extract the proton beams is generally very sensitive to the set-up and state of both the SPS machine and the hardware itself; this note contains an analysis of the performance of this extraction equipment in 1997. We describe the modifications to the hardware installations made during the 1996-1997 shutdown, the problems encountered in operation in 1997, the measurements and investigations undertaken, and the conclusions reached. Recommendations are made concerning changes to the hardware installations and operation.
