PLIC signal voltages in the SLAC accelerator scaled to the SLC arcs

Description: To detect conditions and to forestall events in which an electron or positron beam might otherwise melt a hole in its SLC arc vacuum chamber, and to provide information on the magnitude and location of these and other, less harmful, beam losses, it is planned to install two PLIC cables along each arc, one on each side of the magnet string. A similar system (but with one long ion chamber) has been in use at SLAC for 20 years. Electromagnetic shower calculations have been made to estimate the ion… more

Inverse Cerenkov LPA experiments. 1986 Annual report

Description: This report discusses the progress made on laser particle acceleration. First a brief discussion of the collaboration with the University of California at Santa Barbara to examine the technical trade-offs involved in the choice of an inverse Cerenkov (IC) demonstration experiment. The goals of the IC demonstration experiment are to show the applicability of the IC mechanism to electron beam focusing and acceleration. The second part of this report covers glancing incidence measurements of mirro… more

New limits on residual RTL eta from Linac wakefields

Description: Effects of Linac transverse wakefields are combined with residual eta and partially compressed bunches (presently the SLC design) to place much tighter, current dependent limits on residual eta and eta'. The limits are comparable to or exceed those needed at the SLC final focus. These limits will be difficult to maintain due to present experimental resolution.
