## Proton Plan (short version)(BEAMS-DOC-1441)

- Eric Prebys, FNAL Accelerator Division

## Charge

- Develop a plan for a reasonable set of improvements and operational initiatives to  maximize proton delivery to NuMI and the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) over the next ten years or so.
- Estimate the budget and timeline for these improvements.
- Estimate proton delivery to both beam lines if the Plan proceeds on schedule.
- Note:  this plan is *exclusive* of the Proton Driver, which we assume will one day replace the existing Proton Source (Linac+Booster).

## Review: What Limits Total Proton Intensity?

- Maximum number of Protons the Booster can stably accelerate: 5E12
- Maximum average Booster rep. Rate:  currently 7.5 Hz, may have to go to 10 Hz for NuMI+ *(full)* MiniBooNE
- (NUMI only) Maximum number of booster batches the Main Injector can hold: currently 6 *in principle*, possibly go to 11 with fancy loading schemes in the future
- (NUMI only) Minimum Main Injector ramp cycle time (NUMI only): 1.4s+loading time (at least 1/15s**nbatches*)
- Losses in the Booster:
- Above ground radiation
- Damage and/or activation of tunnel components

*Our biggest worry at the moment!!!!*

## History: Proton Demand

- Have now exceeded initial NuMI needs!!!!

## Linac 7835 Task Force (Rich Andrews)

- 1.1: PA Vulnerability
- If you haven’t heard of 7835’s, you should have
- Need 5 to run linac.
- Made by one company (Burle), which is for sale
- Occasionally forget how to make them
- Seldom more than one or two spares
- We use around 6 a year
- Seldom have more than one or two spares.  Often have had to borrow from other labs
- ONLY LUCK this has not caused a significant down time.
- Short term
- Identify ways to build up a two year supply of spare 7835’s
- Increase lifetime (compare to BNL)
- Work with Burle to increase yield and production.
- Report to Dixon by Feb.
- Longer term
- Identify a long term strategy
- Burle OK?
- New 200 MHz?
- New Linac
- Build our own 7835’s
- Report to Dixon by July

## Main Injector Loading

- The Main Injector has six usable “slots”, into which Booster batches may be placed.
- More batches may be loaded, using “slip stacking”, in which batches are injected at slightly different energy, drift together, and are captures as one batch (with at least twice the longitudinal emittance).

## Main Injector Loading (cont’d)

- Initial NuMI operation (“2+5”):
- Two batches will be slip stacked for antiproton production.
- Five more batches will be loaded for NuMI
- All will be accelerated together.
- Ultimate NuMI operation (“2+9”):
- Five batches will be loaded into the Main Injector, leaving one empty slot.
- Six more batches will be loaded and slipped with the first to make two for antiproton production and 9 for NuMI.
- This is beyond the capacity of the current RF system.

## Main Injector RF Upgrade (3.4)

- The existing RF system can accelerate about 4E13 protons
- This is enough for 2+5 operation (~3.5E13 protons), but not enough for 2+9 (~5.5E13).
- Each RF station has a port for a second PA.
- The plan is to verify that this will provide enough power to accelerate 7E13 protons, then proceed with procurement to add a second PA.
- This is the most expensive part of the plan and the most vital to NuMI operation.
- It would require new modulators, which would make the old ones available for the Booster RF upgrade (2.9)
- Plan
- Build prototype station this year to establish performance
- Proceed with procurement

## Evaluate Effect of Booster Improvements

- Calculate effect of various improvments based on increased acceptance (a la McGinnis):
- Use:

- Effective aperture reduction

| Condition | Date | A | max D | max beta | Acceptance | Relative |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|   | Completed | (mm) | (m) | (m) | (-mm-mr) | Increase (%) |

| Ideal | --- | 0 | 3.19 | 33.7 | 42.3 | 130 |

## Effect on Max Proton Intensity

- Prior to this shutdown, regularly delivering 7.5E16pph with ~40% reduction in activation around most of the Booster.
- Assume after another year of tuning and collimator optimization, we could have hit 1E17 pph with no other improvments (“fallback” = .9E17).
- Operational experience: tuning asymptotically approaches benefit of a particular improvement:
- Assume after one year of tuning, 50% of the benefit of a particular improvement is realized (fallback = 25%).

| Date | “Design” Limit(1E16 p/hr) | FallbackLimit(1E16 p/hr) | Comment |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1/2006 | 10.7 | 9.3 | Effect of collimators, dogleg fix, plus some alignment |
| 1/2007 | 13.0 | 10.4 | Alignment and ORBUMP |
| 1/2008 | 14.6 | 11.0 | New corrector system |

## Predicted Proton Intensity Limits

## Estimating PoT

- Even the fallback proton scenario accommodates NuMI operation.
- Total proton output continues to be limited by radiation losses, rather than Booster repetition rate.
- We assume:
- NuMI and antiproton production get what they need
- The BNB gets whatever it can beyond that, within the total output limit of the Booster
- This is a programmatic decision:
- Protons can be diverted from NuMI to the BNB, but not the other way around.
- The BMB PoT estimates are extremely sensitive to the total proton limit, which is uncertain.

## Calculating NuMI PoT

- Even the fallback scenario accommodates NuMI operation.
- Assume the following
- Booster batch intensity rises steadily to 5.5E12 over the next three years.
- Ramp up to full 2+5 operation by April 2005
- Ramp up to full 2+9 batch slipstacked operation a few months after MI RF upgrade.
- 90% efficiency for slip stacking.
- 10 month operation each year.
- 81% total uptime for remainder of year
- based on MiniBooNE. Includes scheduled and unscheduled downtime
- 90% avg/peak operating efficiency
- 10% down time for shot setup
- 5% down time for fast Recycler transfers
- 5% down time during 2005 for Ecool accesses.
- Does NOT include SY120

## Calculating BNB PoT

- Trickier:
- Still limited by beam loss, NOT rep. rate.
- Assume antiproton and NuMI have priority, so
- BNB VERY sensitive to proton limit and its fluctuations.
- Use:
- 	(avg pph) = (pph lim.)*η – (NuMI pph) – (pbar pph)
- Also assume:
- 10 month operation
- 81% up time (based on 2004)
- 5% downtime in 2005 for ECool access
- BNB gets all the beam during shot setup (10% of the time)

- Avg/pk ~ 86% from July 2004 MiniBooNE operation

- Booster output limit, as discussed

## “Design”  Totals (almost certainly outdated)

## Fallback Scenarios

- NuMI
- Project totals if the MI RF upgrade is delayed by a year *(probable!!)*
- Project totals if slip stacking fails entirely for one reason or another *(pessimistic)*
- BNB
- Project totals if both the MI RF upgrade and the corrector upgrade are delayed by a year *(probable)*
- Project totals if the aperture improvements have only 25% of their calculated benefit *(pessimistic)*

## Fallback Projections (delayed scenario most likely)

- BNB only during shot setup

- BNB *benefits* from delayed slip stacking

## What’s next for the Plan

- Redo schedule to reflect probably funding realities
- Extremely unlikely RF will be in place before Fall 2007
- Fill out management structure and focus on the most critical short term issues
- MI RF
- 7835 task force
- Ongoing Booster projects

## Summary

- We have a plan for a set of improvements to maximize proton delivery to NuMI and the BNB for the foreseeable future.
- We have made an attempt to estimate the benefits of these improvements.
- NuMI proton delivery will be determined by how successful we are with the RF upgrade and the implementation of slip stacking.
- BNB proton delivery will depend on the total proton output capacity of the Booster, and is therefore still highly uncertain.

## Linac Projects

- 1.1: PA Vulnerability
- Come up with a plan for dealing with the Linac Power Amplifier (7835) situation once and for all.  Investigate:
- Low Energy Linac replacement
- Other tubes (e.g. Thales 629)
- Other 200 MHz power (e.g. multi-beam klystrons)
- In-house fabrication
- Significant collaboration with Burle
- Submit report to AD head by Feb, 2004.
- 1.2: Pulse Quad Power Supplies
- Replace pulsed quadrupoles in the old Linac
- Very similar to pulsed supplies in newer linac
- 1.3: Instrumentation Upgrade
- Inadequate Linac instrumentation has led to extended periods of non-optimal running
- Only 1/3 of BPM’s instrumented.
- Project started in 2004
- Add 10 MHz digitizers to old linac RF stations
- Move existing BPM digitizers to High Energy Linac
- Instrument all BPM’s with 10 MHz digitizers.

## Booster Projects

- 2.1: Determine the Booster repetition rate limit
- Once the other upgrades described here are complete, the Booster will be capable of extended running at 15Hz, *except* for the RF system.
- The limit is believed to be 8-9Hz, limited by the main power, but this is not well understood.
- Although the current scope of the plan does not require us to go beyond 9 Hz, we feel it is important to understand the limitation and what would be required to elimniate it.
- 2.2: ORBUMP System
- Existing injection bump (ORBUMP) has two problems
- Average repetition rate of the magnet and power supply is limited to 7.5 Hz by heating.
- It lacks the power to move the beam out far enough at injection, resulting in a mismatch
- Plan is to replace the (4) magnets and power supply
- Magnet fabrication is under way, with the first magnet just completed.
- Aim to put new system in place during 2005 shutdown.

## Booster Projects  (cont’d)

- 2.3: Booster corrector system
- Each of the 48 subperiods of the Booster have a trim package which contains H and V dipoles, as well as a quadrupole and a skew quadrupole.
- These are not adequate to control beam position or tune through the cycle.
- There would also be benefits to putting a sextupole in each package.
- We are working with TD to design a new corrector package for the Booster, which will allow precise control of both beam position and tune throughout the cycle.

- Beam position around ring, relative to injection, at various times in cycle

- V

- H

## Booster Projects (cont’d)

- 2.4: 30 Hz harmonic
- The booster lattice magnets operate in a 15 Hz offset resonant circuit.
- By modifying the magnet girdirs to ad a 30 Hz component, we could reduce the maximum acceleration rate, which is equivalent to increasing RF accelerating voltage
- This would allow us to accelerate more beam per batch.

## Booster Project (cont’d)

- 2.6: Gamma-t System
- The booster transition jump system has a long history.
- May be necessary to fully take advantage of other upgrades to increase batch intensity.
- It suffers from misalignment problems and exacerbates coupled bunch instabilities, so we don’t use it.
- Will schedule a series of studies to make a either make it work or decide to abandon it within a year.
- 2.7: Alignment
- The Booster has never been properly aligned
- Made significant progress in the vertical plane and with RF cavity alignment over the last year.
- Over the shutdown, did a TeV style 3D laser tracker network and as-found.
- Will use this data to form a plan for girder moves over the next year or so.

## Booster Projects (cont’d)

- 2.8: RF Drive tube cooling
- Once the ORBUMP project is complete, the next rate limit comes from heating of the RF cavities.
- The cavities contain internal cooling channels, which are no longer used because some of them leak.
- We are building water cooled slip rings, which can be installed in cavities during normal maintenance.
- Once this is done, the cavities themselves should be good for 15 Hz.
- 2.9:  RF Power Amplifier Upgrade
- The booster RF Power amplifiers are our highest maintenance item.
- Servicing them results leads to some of the higher radiation exposures at the lab (typically 100-150 mRem/quarter).
- These can be replaced with Main Injector style solid state drivers, which have a MTBF of three to four times longer.
- This is expensive, but the cost is offset by the $400K we currently spend on tubes for the existing PA.

## Booster Projects (cont’d)

- 2.10:  Instrumentation Upgrade
- The Booster instrumentation is largely antiquated.
- There are a large number of ramped devices, which are difficult to monitor in our existing alarms and limits system
- A software package has been developed to automatically monitor ramped devices in the Booster, but it is limited by the existing instrumentation.
- Also, our BPM system, while adequate, is becoming difficult to service.
- We plan to install a new readout system based on the Hotlink Rack Monitor (HRM) standard, which will allow much more reliable, high rate data acquisition from the Booster.

## Main Injector Projects

- 3.1: Large Aperture Quadrupoles
- A number of the existing quadrupoles cause losses near injection and extraction Lambertsons.
- These will be replaced with larger aperture quads designed as part of the Proton Driver R&D.
- The fabrication is already under way.
- 3.2: Main Injector Collimation System
- It is possible that the large amount of beam being transported and the increased longitudinal emittance of slip stacking may result in unacceptable losses and activation in the MI.
- This may require a collimation system, similar to the Booster.
- We will investigate the need for such a system, and determine the cost if it proves to be necessary.

## Cost and Schedule

- Methodology.
- Establish total costs based on best available estimates on individual components.
- Assign contingency to individual components as:
- Recent experience or direct quote: 20%
- Similar experience, rules of thumb, etc: 50%
- Good faith estimate: 100%

## Background: What Limits Total Proton Intensity?

- Maximum number of Protons the Booster can stably accelerate: 5E12
- Maximum average Booster rep. Rate:  currently 7.5 Hz, may have to go to 10 Hz for NuMI+ *(full)* MiniBooNE
- (NUMI only) Maximum number of booster batches the Main Injector can hold: currently 6 *in principle*, possibly go to 11 with fancy loading schemes in the future
- (NUMI only) Minimum Main Injector ramp cycle time (NUMI only): 1.4s+loading time (at least 1/15s**nbatches*)
- Losses in the Booster:
- Above ground radiation
- Damage and/or activation of tunnel components

*Our biggest worry at the moment!!!!*

## Big Improvements in the Last Year

- Primary extraction “dogleg fix”
- Increase spacing between magnets in chicane system
- Reduces distortion to injection lattice by ~40%
- Vertical alignment
- Eliminate 1⁄4” misalignment at collimator region
- Improve high field orbit
- 400 MeV line work
- Better understanding
- Improved stability and repeatability
- Injection bump (ORBUMP) improvements
- Improved water flow
- New, lower resistance capacitors
- Much more reliable
- Collimator installation and commissioning
- Advent of slip stacking
- Booster “cogging” + MI slipping

## Major Performance-related Shutdown Projects

- Modify L13 extraction region:
- Overall ~5 reduction in original “dogleg effect”
- Factor of 3 reduction over present effect
- Adding 19th RF cavity:
- Use large aperture prototype
- Increase maximum batch size (~6.5E12)
- Increase reliability (can run with one failure)
- Prep. for 20th  cavity next year
- Complete modern laser tracker 3D network and as-found in the Booster and 400 MeV line:
- Will be used to fully align the Booster next year
- Move “pinger” girder to period 5:
- Extraction pre-notch will now fire into collimators
- Phased to aid extraction at *both* extraction regions!

## Main Injector Loading Projects

- 3.3: Main Injector Multi-Batch Operation
- This item comprises the studies and development time necessary to operate NuMI in a multi-batch operation, as described earlier.
- Initial 2+5 operation
- Slip stacking for 2+9 operation
- 3.4: Main Injector RF Upgrade
- The existing RF system can accelerate about 4E13 protons
- This is enough for 2+5 operation (~3.5E13 protons), but not enough for 2+9 (~5.5E13).
- Each RF station has a port for a second PA.
- The plan is to verify that this will provide enough power to accelerate 7E13 protons, then proceed with procurement to add a second PA.
- This is the most expensive part of the plan and the most vital to NuMI operation.
- It would require new modulators, which would make the old ones available for the Booster RF upgrade (2.9)
