Multi turn beam extraction from synchrotron

摘要

This disclosure relates to apparatuses and methods for the extraction of particle beams while maintaining the energy levels and precision of the particles and the particle beam. Apparatuses and methods for extracting a charged particle beam from a central orbit in a synchrotron are provided, in which a particle beam is deflected from the central orbit. Parts of the deflected particle beam passes through a stripping foil placed in at least parts of the deflected path such that the particles that pass through the foil are stripped of at least one electron. The electron stripped particles and the non-stripped particles may be separated magnetically.

主权项

1. An apparatus for extracting a charged particle beam from a central orbit in a synchrotron, the apparatus comprising:
at least one first magnet positioned to deflect the charged particle beam from the central orbit to a deflected path; at least one stripping foil placed in at least parts of the deflected path, wherein at least a portion of the charged particle beam passing through the stripping foil becomes a stripped charged particle beam; at least one second magnet encompassing the central orbit, the stripped charged particle beam, and a remaining charged particle beam, whereby paths of the stripped charged particle beam and the remaining charged particle beam are separated, the path of the stripped charged particle beam being separated further away from the central orbit than is the path of the remaining charged particle beam; and at least one particle retainer positioned to return the remaining charged particle beam to the central orbit.
