Delay from gun is about 400 ns gate width between 400 and 800 ns


Beam Scans

Zero Degree Port.

Beam spot at the Zero Degree Port as a function of grid voltage knob setting -- not calibrated to voltage but reproducible. (Settings: 0.1, 0.15, 0.18, 0.2)

The 0.15 grid setting is nice. It does not saturate. Here we take slices in x and y and then fit gaussians to the intensity curves. We observe that 35 mm is 244 pix by comparing with the 3.5 cm distance between diagonal bolt studs.

[math]\sigma = \frac{w}{2} \frac{35}{244} [/math] renders the standard deviation into mm. The FWHM is [math] 2.35\sigma [/math]. For the slices at the 0.15 setting, the FWHM are: [math] 2.35\sigma_x = 2.5 [/math]mm and [math] 2.35\sigma_y = 2.7 [/math]mm. This is fully consistent with our digital photographs taken on May 27, 2008.

90 Degree Port.

Beam spot at the 90 Degree Port as a function of grid voltage knob setting -- not calibrated to voltage but reproducible. (Settings: 0.61, 0.80, 1.23, 1.50) 90Port 10MeV Gun2keV Grid 0.61.JPG 90Port 10MeV Gun2keV Grid 0.80.JPG 90Port 10MeV Gun2keV Grid 1.23.JPG 90Port 10MeV Gun2keV Grid 1.50.JPG
