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 />
