Follow-up and Discussion:

  • Next Meeting:
    • Updates on emittance measurement for the foil/no-foil case (D. Cooke)
    • Results from simulations (J. Farmer)
  • Spectrometer Dark Room & Light Transport Mirrors
    • Not needed for Run 2c.
    • To do: Decision to be made at the next TB meeting.
  • Spectrometer Design & Integration
    • M. Turner communicated the new spectrometer design to integration.
    • Magnets have been included in the drawings at approximate positions.
    • To do: D. Cooke to verify and confirm magnet positions.
    • To do: Follow up on the implementation of the OSR diagnostic.

OSR Diagnostic (D. Ghosal)

  • The diagnostic can be implemented either on-axis or off-axis.
  • To do: M. Turner to follow up with integration and the Liverpool team to identify feasible options.
  • For the on-axis geometry, a chamber should follow the dipole directly.
  • Window material options: fused silica or BK7.
  • To do: D. Ghosal to define the window size for the off-axis geometry after receiving beam parameter inputs.
  • Emittance could not yet be retrieved from previous measurements; new measurements are planned for spring.
  • To do: D. Ghosal & J. Wolfenden to prepare a presentation for the Physics Board explaining what the diagnostic can achieve with AWAKE parameters and its approximate setup.
  • To do: D. Ghosal to determine the emittance measurement range after receiving beam parameters.

Electron Beam Energy Analysis (F. Pannell)

  • F. Pannell continues to analyze energy gain measurements.
  • The 90th percentile analysis is proving challenging due to low signal levels.
