CESR feedback system using a constant amplitude pulser
- Laboratory of Nuclear Studies, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853 (United States)
Particle beam feedback system using constant-amplitude, 1000 V, 12 ns pulses has been built to provide longitudinal and horizontal feedback for stabilizing 14 ns spaced bunches for use in CESR (Cornell Electron Storage Ring). The pulse rate is modulated to obtain proportional amplitude control and the pulse arrival time is modulated to obtain both positive and negative kicks. The average repetition rate is limited by pulser power dissipation, but the instantaneous rate may be increased to full duty cycle for short periods of time to handle transients. The pulser drives a 50-ohm stripline kicker so the equivalent peak power at 1000 V is 10 kW. The characteristics of the pulser and its modulator will be described along with the system's operation.
