5. A TUNING PROCEDURE FOR THE LIBO MODULE 83<br />

Therefore, around res<strong>on</strong>ances, the relative change <strong>of</strong> electric<br />

field is proporti<strong>on</strong>al to the change in phase shown by the network<br />

analyzer 11<br />

∆E2 ∆Φ<br />

∝ , for each cavity,<br />

E2 Φ<br />

(4) The measurement is made in the time domain. The motor<br />

moves the wire <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> the bead through the cavities <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> the network<br />

analyzer shows the relative electric field level for each<br />

cavity. The l<strong>on</strong>ger is the measurement time, the more precise<br />

the measurement is. At high res<strong>on</strong>ant frequencies, very l<strong>on</strong>g<br />

times need a temperature c<strong>on</strong>trolled laboratory, since even<br />

little changes in temperature imply changes <strong>of</strong> res<strong>on</strong>ant frequency<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> this implies a linear slope in the output graph.<br />

The figure 5.12 shows a schematic view <strong>of</strong> a bead pulling apparatus<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> the figure 5.13 shows a particular realizati<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong> the LIBO module.<br />

In a next paragraph several examples <strong>of</strong> bead pulling will be given,<br />

since the bead pulling measurement is a fundamental pawn to tune the<br />

LIBO module to the correct distributi<strong>on</strong> field.<br />

5. A tuning procedure for the LIBO module<br />

In this secti<strong>on</strong> it is presented the procedure used to tune the first<br />

LIBO module. The bead pulling measurements reported <strong>on</strong> the following<br />

were made before the final brazing where the four thanks <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> the<br />

three bridge couplers were brazed together. The goal <strong>of</strong> the measurement<br />

was to fix the positi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> the rods tuners for the 102 cavities in<br />

the four tanks.<br />

The facts are reported in a chr<strong>on</strong>ological order, <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> through the<br />

presentati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> the followed steps, whereas it is c<strong>on</strong>venient, some explicati<strong>on</strong>s<br />

are reported <strong>on</strong> the c<strong>on</strong>nected theory <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> the technological<br />

aspect <strong>of</strong> the LIBO module.<br />

11 It is better to use a driven frequency which is slightly different from the<br />

res<strong>on</strong>ant frequency, because in this case the change in phase is always in the same<br />

directi<strong>on</strong>, whereas at the exact res<strong>on</strong>ant frequency some noise in the measurement<br />

can give results with a bigger error.
