Electron Beam Diagnostics

Energy measurement at exit of rf photoinjector

Electron energy at the exit of rf photoinjector is measured by the following two steps. First, an electron pulse is kicked by a trim coil inside the photoinjector and the electron position at the exit of the photoinjector is observed. Next, the measured position is put into a MAD input file and the electron energy is fitted by MAD. Click here for an example of MAD input data, in which the beam is kicked by a combination of the trim coil and a solenoid coil. Click here for geometry of the beam profile monitor (LPOP-UP1). Since the two coils are partially overlapped, the coils are independently divided into tens of slices and each slice is placed reciprocally.
