H- Bunch Shape Measurements at LANSCE
Abstract
A Feschenko-style Bunch Shape Monitor (BSM) was used to measure the longitudinal profile of H- bunches at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) accelerator. The measurements were taken in the 201.25-MHz drift tube linac (DTL), where the design beam energy is 72.72 MeV. The results of the measurements are presented, and several unexpected features of the measurements are discussed.
