Description
Beam Position Monitoring (BPM) devices are essential for beam transport in any particle accelerator facility. The Button-type BPM is in common use around electron synchrotrons and storage rings. An optimized Button BPM is presently under development at KACST for use in future light sources.
In this contribution, the results from theoretical calculations are presented to determine the button voltage and the signal power depending on the expected beam parameters of such light source. These numbers are compared to results from CST Particle Studio simulations which aim at simulating and optimizing the overall design of the BPM.
