Title: A longitudinal bunch monitoring system using LabVIEW and high-speed oscilloscopes

Abstract

A new longitudinal bunch monitor system has been installed at Fermilab for the Tevatron and Main Ring. For each machine, a signal from a broadband wall current monitor is sampled and digitized by a high-speed oscilloscope. A Macintosh computer, running LabVIEW-based software, controls the scopes and CAMAC timing modules and analyzes the acquired data. The resulting bunch parameters are used for a variety of purposes, including Tevatron collider luminosity calculation and injection analysis. This paper examines the system in detail. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
