It is shown that BGOhasmore than two orders of magnitude higher resis-against lowenergy y rays than SF5 lead glass. Darkening of the crystal is hardly visible even after an irradiation of 3.6 x 106R. Thr: darkening faded by more than one half after several days and it has almost completely disappeared after much longer periods. Thetotem hle rate of synchrotron radiation on BGOcalorimeters is 100 R/hin aconsen ative estimate if the degradation in transrnittance is requited to be lossthan 1% over a depth of 20 radiation lengths. In BGOcalorimeters. the degradation of scintillation efficiency is less important than that of the transmittance. 99.999% pure crystals have atwo orders of magnitude better resistance Man 99.99% pure ones. Sample darkening caused by 12 GeV protons or fast neutrons is an order of magnitude more severe than that by lowenergy yrays. Moreover, the recovery is not coraplete even after aperiod of more than 100 days. Some data on sample activation are also presented.

Time evolution of the instabilities just after the turning-off the transverse bunch feedback have been recorded with several solenoid-field conditions to suppress the blowup due to electron cloud. The mode spectra of the coupled-bunch instabilities have been compaired with the simulations of electrons moving in drift space, weak solenoid field and strong bending field.

The coupling mode of the instability is determined by the motion of the electrons in the cloud-that is, it depends on which electrons, moving in a drift space, a weak solenoid field or a strong bending field, are dominant for the instability. We discuss the coupled-bunch instability focusing on the relation between the mode spectrum and the electron motion.

The pi1 beam line was constructed to transport an 8 GeV/c unseparated secondary beam to the experimental area of the 12 GeV proton synchrotron at KEK. The beam line has been operated for five years without any serious problems and was shut down in the summer of 1986. We describe its design, construction and operational results.

ABSTRACT

Research paper thumbnail of A Perfect Electrode to Suppress Secondary Electrons inside the Magnets

An electron cloud due to multipacting in the positron ring of B-factories and the damping ring of... more An electron cloud due to multipacting in the positron ring of B-factories and the damping ring of the International Linear Collider (ILC) is one of the main concerns. The electron cloud in the drift region can be suppressed by a solenoid. However, the solenoid doesn't work inside a magnet. Numerical studies show that there is strong multipacting in a dipole magnet of a B-factory positron ring. Electrons also can be trapped inside quadrupole and sextupole magnets. The electron cloud from dipole magnets and wigglers in the positron damping ring of the ILC gives a critical limitation on the choice of a circumference of the damping ring, which directly results in a choice of two 6 km rings as the baseline for the positron damping ring. Various electrodes have been studied using the program CLOUDLAND. Our studies show that a wire type of the electrode with a few hundred voltages works perfectly to kill the secondary electrons inside various magnets.

The computers are linked by optical fiber cables with 10 Mbps transmission speed. The software system is based on the NODAL, a multi-computer interpreter language developed at CERN SPS. Typical messages exchanged between computers are NODAL programs and NODAL variables transmitted by the EXEC and the REMIT commands. These messages are exchanged as a cluster of packets whose maximum size is 512 bytes. At present, eleven minicomputers are connected to the network and the total length of the ring is 1.5 km. In this condition, the maximum attainable throughput is 980 kbytes/s. The response of a pair of an EXEC and a REMIT transactions which transmit a NODAL array A and one line of program 'REMIT A' and immediately remit the A is measured to be 95+0.0392 ms, where z is the array size in byte. In ordinary accelerator operations, the maximum channel utilization is 23. the average packet length is 96 bytes and the transmission rate is 10 kbytes/s. 2.1 FOR I=l,lO ; SET A(I)=MAG(I,'CUR') 2.2 REMIT A
