As light-and heavy-ion accelerator technology progresses, there will be a further demand for charged particle beam instrumentation to measure beam parameters over a very wide dynamic range. There are several different ways to express a beam diagnostic instrument's ability to measure the beam's characteristics over a wide dynamic range. For example, presently beam profiles are measured over current ranges of 1 to 100 mA (in the case of the Low Energy Demonstration Accelerator) or 1 to 20 mA in the case of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center facility. The beam current dynamic range requirements are based on the facilities users' needs and the facilities ability to tune the associated accelerators and beamlines. However, as peak beam currents requirements rise, the beam's halo may be lost to beam line components during tuning and operation facility conditions resulting in unwanted beam pipe radioactivation. To minimize these lost beam debilitating conditions, future beam profile measurements will need to measure further out in the beam distributions, i.e., driving the needs for beam profile measurement to be measured over greater dynamic ranges. Finally, future ion accelerator facilities will require measuring all beam diagnostics parameters over a large variety of chargeto-mass ratios and experimenter delivered beam current requirements. These new additional requirements will drive beam profiles to be acquired over at least a 1000:1 peak current ratio. This presentation will discuss the present typical dynamic ranges for such common beam measurements, such as beam position and profiles and provide examples of future wide dynamic range beam measurements.

Design study of Beam Loss Monitoring system for the Rare Isotope Science Project in Korea

A: A new heavy ion accelerator facility called RAON is being constructed in Daejeon, Korea to produce rare isotope beams of various energies for the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP). This facility is designed to use both the In-flight Fragmentation (IF) and Isotope Separation On-Line (ISOL) systems to provide a wide range of rare isotope beams to be utilized in many fundamental physics experiments and in various applications. The RAON can use both stable heavy ion beams and rare isotope beams with energies up to a few hundreds of MeV/u with 400 kW of beam power. One of the greatest challenges in operating such a high beam power facility (∼ 400 kW) is to accurately monitor the beam loss and trigger the Machine Protection System (MPS) reasonably quickly. In this paper, we report the conceptual design of the RAON beam loss monitoring system. Monte Carlo simulations using the MCNPX code were performed to understand beam loss-induced neutron and gamma radiation. The types of detectors were determined based on radiation simulations while considering the sensitivities of the detectors and response time requirements.
