1 A Simple, Nondestructive Profile Monitor for External Proton Beams'~ Fred Hornstra, Jr. Accelerator Division Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois, USA and James R. Simanton High Energy Fac~lities Division Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois, USA Abstract Wire planes operating as ionization collectors with air as an ionizing medium have been used as nondestructive profile monitors in the external proton beam of the Zero Gradient Synchrotron. Results are in agreement with movable ~ca.tter target, scintillation telescope measuring techniques but are obtained with greater simplicity, versatility, and without associated background problems. The system is amenable I 'I" to automatic scanning such that a complete beam profile may be obtained within a few milliseconds. *Work performed under the auspices of the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission. ---~-- -1-
2 Introduction Wire planes 1 operating as ion collectors, have been used successfully as profile monitors in the external proton beam of the Zero Gradient Synchrotron (ZGS). Using the surrounding atmosphere as an ionization l medium, these devices yield high resolu:tion profiles, comparable to the usual method of a movable scatter target monitored. by a scintillation counter telescope, but without the associated beam disruption, complexity, op.erating and shielding difficulties. Indeed, the device ha~ been used to measure profiles in an environment where a scatter monitor has failed because of background radiation. Although the device described herein has been evaluated anc~ utilized by manual scanning, signal levels are substantial and are amem.ble to automatic scanning.. Description The profile monitor (!ig. I) consists of three parallel planes separated by. 6 cm, each plane consisting of 48 aluminum.. 25 mm diameter wires 11 spaced 1 mm apart. One plane forms the ho_rizontal profile array, the next is the high voltage plane, and the third plane forms the vertical profile array. The wires are placed on 1 cn;i square glass frames with a 5. 2 cm square aperture, using standard wire spark chamber coristruction techniques. The proton beam passes through the aperture normal to the wire planes. A voltage (typically I kv} of either polarity is imp:ressed -2-
3 between plane.s. Thin mylar windows permit the device to operate as a flow chamber with a suitable gas mixture; however, when used only as a profile monitor as described herein, the enclosed volume is open to atmosphere. Qperation Presently, _all wires are brought out of the proton beam tunnel and grounded. Each wire is, in sequence, disconnected from ground and connected to _an integrator consisting of a O. 1 µf capacitor. buffered from the oscillos.cope by a high input impedance voltage follower. TJ:ie capacitor is discharged before each spill. The amplitude of the capacitor voltage represented by the charge accumulated over the length of the beam spill is recorded for each wire. For a typical profile, the average of several readings on a given wire is plotted. This procedure is used because beam spill int~nsity varies slightly from pulse to pulse. A manual scan in both directione" completed in this manner requires about one-half hour or less, dependi!l.g on beam size. The time is comparable to that required for similar resolution using the scatter target, scintillation counter method. Figure 3 illustrates the effect of operating voltage. As expected for ". air as an ionizing medium, saturation is not achieved even for the I. 5 kv profile, but the FWHM (Full Width at Half Maximum) is relatively independent of impressed voltage. Reversed voltage showed a similar result. -3-
4 \. 11 The extracted beam intensity during these runs averaged 2. 5(1) protons per pulse with a spill duration of approximately 5 msec. For this condition, the peak of the 1. 5 kv plot corresponds to about 24 na for a beam spot size of 1 mm diameter. Results Figure 4 sho\vs a horizontal profile of the proton beam obtained with. t.his profile mo~itor near a focus while 1.7(1) 11 protons per ;~lse were extracted in 5 msec with and without an upstream septum magnet in the beam.. Simultaneously, an independent experimenter measured the width.,. of the beam with an adjacent downstream movable scatter target monitored by a sc:intillation telescope. The position shift, intensity reduction, and increase in FWHM from the septum magnet are all in accordance with expectations for these conditions and agree with the independent measurements~ Subsequent comparisons continue t? substantiate this agreement. 1.. for various spot sizes and for beam intensities as low as 3(1) protons distributed over 6 msec in time. Discussion and Future Plans Air has serious deficiencies as an ionization chamber gas, and in applications as an absolute intensity n?;,onitor, recombination effects would be deleterious; however, as a relative profile monitor, the experimental --- evidence indicates that these effects are not detrimental, at least in minimum ionizing (12 GeV} proton beams of the intensities and densities investigated. -4..
5 I. Our futu1:"e plans include using the device as a flow chamber with suitable gas mixtures to evaluate absolute intensity profiles. We are currently assembling suitable electronics for automatic scanning. Virtually instantaneous, continuous readout of beam profiles is possible and it appears practical to acquire individual profiles.at several different times during a single beam spill of the ZGS. Such a device will perfor1n a dynamic diagnostic function and provide input to _the ZGS control computer for automatic beam optimization and continualb direct monitoring of size, position, and intensity of beam on external targets. We plan to attempt to observe profiles of secondary beams in the near future by operating the wire planes in the proportional mode!. Acknowledgements The help of Robert Scherr continues to be invaluable i~i. getting the pro.file monitors constructed, installed, and evaluated. We also appreciate the cooperation of David Sherden who provided independ.e:nt beam size measurements in conjunction with high energy physics experiment E
