Development of Software for Diagnostics and Correction of Closed Orbit in the NICA Booster
摘要
Abstract—
The NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) accelerator complex consists of a collider and an injection complex. The injection complex of heavy ions includes ion source, linear accelerator, a 25 T m SC Booster synchrotron, a 38 T m SC synchrotron Nuclotron, and beam transfer lines. One of the main tasks in complex commissioning and tuning are the measurement and correction of the beam closed orbit. The software, written for orbit correction, was successfully tested during the commissioning runs. The paper describes the software and hardware developments for orbit measurement and correction.
