    Description


    Organiser(s): HR-RFA

    Summary:
    Beam Instrumentation is a very large activity covering the measurements needed to commision, maintain and improve accelerators and the related transport lines.
    The direct observables are beam positions and trajectories, intensities, profiles, particle losses and collision luminosities. From these observables many more beam qualities like betatron tunes, chromaticity, coupling are derived.
    The seminar will give an overview of the necessary signal detection components and the chain of software to make use of the data. Several examples of beam measurements will be given.

    Prerequisite knowledge:
    Basic knowledge on circular accelerators, basic , idea of electronic signal treatments, insight to computing and controls.
