The CERN-SPS Experiment on Microwave Transmission through the Beam Pipe

In the CERN SPS microwave transmission measurements through beampipe sections with a length of 30 m and 7 m respectively have been carried out in the frequency range 2-4 GHz since spring 2003. Here we report on new results obtained with improved measurement techniques during the 2004 run. Observatio...

description In the CERN SPS microwave transmission measurements through beampipe sections with a length of 30 m and 7 m respectively have been carried out in the frequency range 2-4 GHz since spring 2003. Here we report on new results obtained with improved measurement techniques during the 2004 run. Observation techniques include a fast real time scope, spectrum analyser IF and video output signal registration and baseband signal observation using a PC soundcard. The unexpected beamâ€"induced amplitude modulation has been confirmed on all kinds of available beams including single bunches. It was found that there is a correlation between the amount of beam induced signal attenuation and the beam losses registered by external scintillators. Potential theoretical models are discussed.
