Özet
A proton linac consisting of an ion source (IS), a Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) line including a diagnostics station (MBOX) and a Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) which would accelerate a beam of 1mA current to 2MeV energy is being designed and produced at KAHVELab. The beam originating from the ion source has to match the RFQ input parameters. The LEBT line optics containing two solenoid, and two steerer magnets is optimized for this task. MBOX is used to measure the proton beam’s current, profile as well as the beam emittance upstream of the RFQ to ensure a correct matching between the IS and the RFQ. MBOX was designed, simulated, produced and tested using local resources. It contains home-built diagnostic tools: a Faraday cup, a scintillator screen and a pepper pot plate. Currently, as the beamline is prepared up to the RFQ input, commissioning work is ongoing at different IS energies. Results from various measurements, especially on beam profile and charge, are compared to the simulation predictions. In this talk, the locally developed beam profile analysis algorithm and the associated measurement results will be discussed.
