Speed of the internal pellet target in CSRm

Pellet target is one of the main candidate targets in CSRm (cooler storage ring’s main ring) for hadron physics studies. Pellet speed is an important physical parameter for the target. Larger pellet speed could shorten the interacting time interval between the pellet and the cyclotron beam, and thus results in a small temperature variation for the pellet. This could make the pellet facility work in a stable condition. A fluid dynamic simulation was carried out for the pellet speed, and it was found that the maximum speed for the target pellet may be restricted to about 100 m/s even if all working parameters were set to their optimal values.

Commissioning of electron cooling in CSRm

A new generation electron cooler has started operation in the heavy ion synchrotron CSRm which is used to increase the intensity of heavy ions. Transverse cooling of the ion beam after horizontal multi-turn injection allows beam accumulation at the injection energy. After optimization of the accumulation process an intensity increase in a synchrotron pulse by more than one order of magnitude has been achieved. In given accumulation time interval of 10 seconds, 108particles have been accumulated and accelerated to the final energy. The momentum spread after accumulation and acceleration in the 10−4 range has been demonstrated in six species of ion beams. Primary measurements of accumulation process varying with electron energy,electron beam current, electron beam profile, expansion factor and injection interval have been performed.The lifetimes of ion beams in the presence of electron beams were roughly measured with the help of DCCT signal.

冷却储存环CSRm中螺线管场耦合效应研究

介绍了重离子冷却储存环中螺线管场对束流水平方向和垂直方向产生耦合的原理,由祸合运动方程及耦合系数推导出螺线管场耦合的补偿方法．结合兰州冷却环主环实际的单元结构,工作点选在束流稳定的差共振附近,模拟计算了冷却环主环在电子冷却段没有螺线管、有螺线管和增加补偿螺线管三种情况下的束流发射度及此三种情况下冷却环主环的动力学孔径．通过模拟计算可知螺线管的存在将引起束流的水平方向和垂直方向严重耦合,由于耦合效应,垂直方向的发射度将超出其接受度,致使束流大量损失．针对这种情况,提出了在螺线管两端的合适位置增加一组补偿螺线管的校正方案．模拟结果表明这种措施行之有效．

CSRm束流径向和轴向振荡的耦合
