PSR beam-pulse formation and control

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5778421
The Proton Storage Ring (PSR) is a major addition to the Weapons Neutron Research Facility (WNR) at LAMPF. It will act as a bunch compressor for the relatively long linac macropulses from LAMPF, tailoring them into short, intense pulses ideally suited for neutron-scattering research. This paper concentrates on the methods used to form these pulses before injection into the linac, to multiplex the PSR beam with other LAMPF users, and to synchronize the storage ring with pulse arrival time at injection and with the WNR mechanical neutron chopper at extraction.
