The 800 MeV measurement line of the CERN PS booster

The CERN 800 MeV PS Booster (PSB) has been in its running-in stage since May 1972. It consists of 4 superposed synchrotrons which are filled in multiturn injection by double pulsing the present CPS injector, a 50 MeV linac. After R.F.-trapping 20 bunches of protons (5 per ring) are accelerated in ab...

Sumario:The CERN 800 MeV PS Booster (PSB) has been in its running-in stage since May 1972. It consists of 4 superposed synchrotrons which are filled in multiturn injection by double pulsing the present CPS injector, a 50 MeV linac. After R.F.-trapping 20 bunches of protons (5 per ring) are accelerated in about 0.6 s to 800 MeV. The 4 beams are then sequentially fast ejected and vertically recombined for transfer to the 28 GeV PS. The dump line was promoted to a measurement line with the threefold purpose of emittance measurement, spectrometry, and transport of the beams to a dump. (10 refs).
