An almost deterministic automated matching algorithm and preliminary tests at Jefferson Lab

by Yu-Chin CHAO (Jefferson Laboratory)

Thursday 15 Jun 2000, 16:00 → 16:15 Europe/Zurich

SL Auditorium (CERN)

An algorithm developed recently for performing on-line betatron matching is presented. The algorithm takes into account the full order behaviour of matching quadrupoles and their compounded effects, thus affording global solutions to the matching problem in an almost deterministic manner. Also presented is the scheme for performing high precision transfer matrix measurements, an integral part of this algorithm. Results from both simulation and preliminary on-line testing at Jefferson Lab (with very encouraging outcome) as well as future path and possibilities of incorporation into the CERN ABS platform will be discussed.

Organiser(s): Werner Herr / SL Division

Note: Tea and coffee will be served at 15:30 in front of the Auditorium
