Abstract The effects of rf voltage modulation on synchrotron motion were studied experimentally. The experimental data revealed the resonance islands generated by the rf voltage modulation. With electron cooling, beam particles were observed to damp to the basins of these resonance islands or attractors, which were observed to rotate about the origin of the phase space at a half of the modulation frequency. The measured amplitude of the attractors as a function of the modulation frequency agreed very well with the theoretical prediction. The Poincare maps in the resonance rotating frame were obtained from the experimental data and compared with tori of the Hamiltonian flow. Based on our theoretical formulation, slow beam extraction using rf voltage modulation and a bent crystal are also studied.

A small 2.2 Tesla-meter booster synchrotron is under construction at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility to boost polarized beam performance in the electron cooled Indiana University Cooler Synchrotron. Polarized light proton or deuteron beam from a high intensity polarized ion source will be preaccelerated to 7 and 6 MeV respectively by an RFQ/DTL accelerator. The beams are then debunched to reduce the energy spread and strip-injected into the booster synchrotron. The booster RF system must accomplish the tasks of beam capture and acceleration. At the end of the acceleration cycle, the beam phase needs to be aligned to the Cooler synchrotron RF for bucket-to-bucket beam transfer. A single RF cavity in the ring will provide the necessary RF field to accomplish the above tasks.

A 2.2 Tesla-meter synchrotron with 17.4 m circumference is being built at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF). The purpose of the project is to achieve higher luminosity for nuclear physics experiments using electron cooled polarized light ion beams in the IUCF Cooler synchrotron. The injection line for the booster synchrotron consists of an RFQ/DTL linear accelerator delivering a 7 MeV proton beam and a 6 MeV deuteron beam for the booster injection. A debunching system will be installed in the injection beamline to reduce the energy spread of beams out of the linear accelerators. Charge-exchange injection is used for high intensity multiturn beam accumulation. The booster output beams, 200 MeV for protons and 105 MeV for deuterons, will be transferred bucket to bucket to the IUCF Cooler synchrotron. The rf system design for the booster synchrotron is presented in this paper.

Abstract A method for measuring coherent longitudinal synchrotron modes is developed and tested at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility Cooler Ring. This method can be used to detect the onset of coherent instability and can provide important diagnosis for the control of beam brightness. Some possible improvement of this technique is discussed.

Experimentally obtained Poincare maps in the resonant precessing frame for particle motion with linear coupling revealed invariant tori of the 2D Hamiltonian. Using these tori, we obtained the linear coupling strength, the tune shift with betatron amplitude coefficient and the proximity parameter to the resonance. The coupling strengh obtained with this method agreed well with that obtained from measuring the betatron tune separation of the normal modes.

Measurements of lattice parameters for the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF) Cooler synchrotron at betatron tunes close to a sum resonance line are discussed. The measured beta functions at 36 quadrupole locations and the dispersion functions at 35 Beam Position Monitor (BPM) locations are compared with calculations. The methods used to make the above measurements and the data analysis are described.

The Hamiltonian system with phase modulation in a higher harmonic RF cavity is experimentally studied on the IUCF cooler ring. The Poincare maps in the resonant rotating frame are obtained from experimental data and compared with numerical tracking. The formation of the stochastic layer due to the overlap of parametric resonances is discussed. The dependence of the stochastic layer on the voltage of the higher harmonic RF cavity, amplitude and frequency of the phase modulation is studied.

This paper reports lattice design studies of a low energy booster at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF). This booster will be used as an injector, which is named as Cooler Injector Synchrotron (CIS), for the existing IUCF Cooler ring. The IUCF CIS will be able to accelerate high-intensity polarized protons or deuterons coming from a RFQ linac from 7 MeV (6 MeV) to 200 MeV (105 MeV). The beam bunch then will be extracted and injected into the Cooler ring for further acceleration. The finalized lattice design for the CIS has four superperiods. Each period is composed of a drift space and a dipole magnet which has 90/spl deg/ bending angle and 12/spl deg/ edge angle at both ends. The circumference of the CIS is 17.364 meters, one fifth of that of the Cooler ring. The designed horizontal and vertical tunes are 1.463 and 0.779, respectively. Possible effects from the employment of trim quadrupoles, which will be located between dipoles, are also discussed.

Halo formation for a test particle in a mismatched KV beam is studied. Parametric resonances of the particle Hamiltonian due to envelope modulation are studied with particular emphasis on period 2 resonance which plays dominant role in halo formation. It is shown that the onset of global chaos exhibits a sharp transition when the amplitude of modulation is larger than a critical value which is a function of a single parameter, /spl kappa/, i.e., the ratio of the space charge perveance to the focusing strength.

Fast bunch to bunch feedback is necessary to control instabilities caused by coupled bunch oscillations in high intensity machines. A time domain active feedback scheme is discussed with focus on effective error detection using simple analog filters. Fast electronic switches direct each beam bunch signal from a beam pickup to a corresponding filter. The filters are excited at steady states. The output of the filters are steady sine waves tracking the phase and amplitude variations of individual bunches, allowing easy phase comparison with a reference rf signal. Amplitude detection of the signals yields valuable information of higher order beam oscillation modes. The beam motion information is processed and multiplexed to a fast phase or amplitude modulator that drives a wideband kicker. The feedback system can also be used to correct individual bunch oscillations caused by injection errors in larger machines filled by a number of booster cycles.
