Skew Quadrupole Effects on Multi-turn injection<br />

Efficiency in SIS18, Wafa Mahmood Daqa,<br />

Ingo Hofmann, Jurgen Struckmeier (GSI,<br />

Darmstadt) - One goal of the SIS18 upgrade scheme<br />

is concerned about improving the multi-turn<br />

injection (MTI) efficiency, in order to reach the<br />

required intensities at the targets and to operate<br />

effectively as a booster for SIS100. To improve the<br />

limitation of the MTI scheme, there were successful<br />

attempts in AGS and PS boosters, to use the skew<br />

injection scheme and later it was suggested for<br />

SIS18. The strength of the skew quadrupoles is<br />

optimized together with the horizontal tune, the<br />

difference in horizontal to vertical tunes, the<br />

�<br />

14<br />

incoming beam parameters and the geometrical<br />

limitation of SIS lattice. A good optimization<br />

implies the emittance exchange, due to linear<br />

coupling, to take place partially and just before the<br />

return of the beamlet back to its original position at<br />

the septum. The present work was done by<br />

simulation using the code PARMTRA and compared<br />

with measurements. The results show that,<br />

depending on the working point, the skew injection<br />

scheme can improve the MTI efficiency from 5% up<br />

to 15%, taking into account the loss on the septum<br />

from inside and on the vertical acceptance.<br />
