Completion of Beam Diagnostics equipment

Comeb has manufactured an entire  diagnostic system that  works in a low energy line.  The system consists in a single, 390mm-long, stainless steel chamber operating in UHV. The chamber houses all necessary detectors for the characterization of the exit beam from the source.

Following the beam trajectory, the components included are:

- 4 motorized plates forming a horizontal and vertical slit for emittance measurement, characterization of source spectrum and cutting through undesired hazes.

- 2 motorized wire scanners (horizontal and vertical) to asses beam profiles.

- 1 Faraday Cup that is used for intensity measurement and as a beam stopper.

Each component is equipped with an integrated cooling system.

As the structure is intended for therapeutic purposes, special attention was paid to client specifications.
