Bunch length measurements at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) linear accelerator

Conference ·
OSTI ID:82472
Measurements of the APS linac micro-bunch length are performed by backphasing a single 2856-MHz, S-band linac waveguide and using a downstream spectrometer to observe the beam. By measuring the beam width in the dispersive plane as a function of rf power into the linac waveguide, the bunch length can be determined absolutely provided the beam energy and dispersion at the spectrometer are known. The bunch length determined in this fashion is used to calibrate a fifth-harmonic bunch length cavity which is used for real-time bunch length monitoring.
