Abstract:SummaryIn order to prevent beam instabilities due to the coupling impedance of vacuum tanks containing septum magnets, electrostatic inflectors, etc. in a proton synchrotron we make routine measurements with portable instruments before installation. For frequencies >20 MHz the physical size of the devices is comparable to X/4 -the typical problem of microwave measurements -and impedance transformations by Carter-or Smith-Charts or computers are needed to obtain the true impedances. Therefore the measurement of… Show more
