D. Manglunki et M. Martini, BEAM OPTICS MODELING AT CPS EXTRACTION THROUGHOUT A NONLINEAR FRINGE-FIELD, Particle accelerators, 58(1-4), 1997, pp. 209-219
An accurate optics model of the CPS ring in the extraction region, whe
re the lateral fringe field is highly non-linear, is of importance for
transverse emittance preservation of beams for the future LHC. For th
at reason, the measured field map at 26 GeV/c of the CPS magnets has b
een converted into a two-dimensional polynomial to get a functional fo
rm appropriate for subsequent beam trajectory computations. Effects of
magnet shimming, not considered during the magnetic measurements, and
changes in the currents of the pole-face windings have been examined,
and the field map has been adjusted accordingly by means of calculati
ons with the program Poisson. The equation of the beam trajectory and
the transfer matrices through the field map have been derived to yield
an accurate knowledge of the optical parameters at ejection, and thus
in the transfer channel between the CPS and the SPS machines. Experim
ental verification of the model has been undertaken with the 26 GeV/c
beam for the LHC.
