Fermilab Main Injector instrumentation

Abstract

An overview of the instrumentation installed in the Fermilab Main Injector is presented. Efficiency, beam loss, average intensity, bunch intensity, position, betatron and synchrotron oscillation frequency, as well as transverse and longitudinal profiles are measured. Systems such as the Beamline Tuner and the Ionization Profile Monitor track changes through the accelerating cycle and analyze their rate of change.
