  5. History of Dampers at FNAL • Dampers are essential for maximum performance and forgiving operation. • Over the years, many Beam Dampers have been built at Fermilab. • Essentially all of these fell into disuse. • Some of the most powerful (Superdampers) were deliberately removed from service and not replaced. • In contrast, most other large labs have beam dampers on all coordinates on all machines. MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  6. Difficulties in Maintaining Beam Dampers • Specialized custom built power amps • e.g. distributed tube amplifier for Superdampers • Limitations of Analog Signal Processing • Crates of specialized custom NIM modules • Few people can understand & maintain system • Many cables, connections to fail • Spares/testing problem with custom analog modules • Unique hardware needed for various machines, various RF bunch structures, etc. Difficult to modify for new RF freq. • Diagnostic signals unavailable in control room. MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  7. Damper Design Choices for MI / RR • Digital Signal Processing • Commercial electronics, with custom firmware • might change for final implementation • Common Hardware for MI, RR, (& Booster?) • Standard commercial wideband FET power amps (same type used for Recycler RF, Booster (& TeV?) dampers,etc.) MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  8. Advantages of Digital Filters • Digital filter can also operate at multiple lower frequencies ...simultaneously if desired. • MI will not be blind for 2.5 and 7.5 MHz Beam • Digital filters more reproducible (=>spares!) • Re-use Standard hardware with new FPGA code • or same code with different filter coefficients • Inputs and Outputs clearly defined • filters can be developed & debugged offline MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  16. Damper Priorities in Main Injector & Recycler • Main Injector Longitudinal Dampers • Main Injector Transverse Dampers • Recycler Transverse Injection Dampers • Recycler Longitudinal Dampers • Recycler Broadband (DC Beam) Dampers MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  17. 1. Longitudinal Damper in Main Injector • Benefits to Bunch Coalescing for Collider • “Dancing Bunches” degrade Proton coalescing and L • Affects Lum directly (hourglass) and indirectly (lifetime) • We are deliberately blowing L in Booster • Benefits for Pbar Stacking Cycles • Bunch Rotation is generally turned off ! (x1.5 stack rate?) • Slip-Stacking etc. (Run IIb) will require stable bunches • Needed for eventual NUMI operation MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  18. Longitudinal Beam Instability in MI • Occurs with as few as 7 bunches (out of 588) • Prevents low emittance bunch coalescing and efficient Pbar bunch rotation • Driven by cavity wake fields within bunch train • Seeded by Booster & amplified near MI flat top. First Bunch ~ OK 7th Bunch Trashed see Dave Wildman’s Talk MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  19. Longitudinal Damper Works by Modulating Phase of RF Zero Crossing MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  20. Damping of Bunch Motion by Modulation of Center of Rotation (RF zero-crossing) on Alternate Half-cycles of Synchrotron Motion MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  21. Numerical Examples for Longitudinal Dampers Damping can be made faster by raising VDAMPER and/or lowering VRF MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  22. MI Longitudinal Damper- Inputs(Ashmanskas, Foster) BUNCH –BY-BUNCH PHASE (w/offset) • 80 Bunch-by-Bunch synchrotron oscillations (Pbar Stacking Cycle) measured with Echotek board & custom firmware TURN NUMBER AFTER INJECTION  MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

W. Foster

  24. Single-Bunch Phase Signal Single-Bunch Digital Kick (velocity filter) MI Longitudinal Damper Kick Calculated in FPGA Firmware(Ashmanskas, Foster) MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  25. What ADC Clock Speed is needed? • ~53 MHz Bandwidth limited signal, sampled by 106 MHz ADC, measures eitherin-phase (cosine) orquadrature (sine) component • but not both ==> ADC clock phasing matters! • 212 MHz sampling measures bothin-phaseandquadrature components. Phasing is not critical to determine vector magnitude. • 212 MHz built in phase measurement MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  26. Bandwidth Limit Signal • Raw signal has high-frequency components which can cause signal to be missed by ADC • “Aliasing” • Bandwidth limited signal (to ~50 MHz) cannot be missed by 106 MHz ADC • Eliminate low-frequency ripple, baseline shifts, etc. with Transformer or AC coupling • Digital Filtering can provide additional rejection MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  27. Gaussian Filter - Impulse Response • Many implementations, e.g. traversal filter Spreads signal +/-5ns in time so it will not be missed by ADC Reduces ADC Dynamic Range requirement, since spike does not have to be digitized MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  28. Gaussian Filter - Doublet Response Filtered Output Pulse Shape is insensitive to Bunch Length (for Tb < 10ns) Filtered Signal can be sampled by 100 MHz ADC Digitized Pulsehight is “A - B” MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  29. Gaussian Filter - Pulse Train Response Filter Output is good sine wave independent of bunch length “A - B” still gives good bunch-by-bunch measurement Can digitally average over many bunches in a batch to get lower noise MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  30. In-Phase and Quadrature Sampling “A - B” gives bunch-by-bunch “in-phase” signal • This is the argument for sampling at 2x Nyquist “D - (C+E)/2” gives bunch-by-bunch “out-of-phase” or “quadrature” signal Vector Sum sqrt(I**2 +Q**2) is insensitive to clock jitter MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  31. 2. Transverse Damper in Main Injector • Bunch-by-Bunch 53 MHz Injection Damper • Forgive Pbar injection errors caused by AP3… line drift • Simplify & speed up Shot Setup • Eliminate emittance growth due to waveform defect in Accumulator extraction kicker • Bunch-by-Bunch 2.5 MHz Injection Damper • Eliminate emittance growth in RRMI transfers • Suppress RW instability for NUMI & FT operation • May also be needed for slip-stacking intensities (Run IIb) MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  32. BUNCH–BY–BUNCH BEAM POSITION TURN NUMBER AFTER INJECTION  MI/RR Transverse Dampers - Inputs(Ashmanskas, Foster) • Bunch-by-Bunch betatron oscillations (Pbar Stacking Cycle) measured with Echotek board & custom FPGA firmware. • FPGA Filter can be reprogrammed for: • 53MHz, 7.5MHz & 2.5MHz. • Debunched beam, single bunches and bunch trains. MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  33. BUNCH–BY–BUNCH BEAM POSITION TURN NUMBER AFTER INJECTION  Transverse Bunch-By-Bunch Dampers - Results(Ashmanskas, Foster) • Damping active for Bunch #43 …CAN ALSO ANTI-DAMP TO BLOW ANY SELECTED BUNCHES OUT OF THE MACHINE  Anti-Satellite Device MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  34. BUNCH–BY–BUNCH BEAM POSITION Transverse Bunch-By-Bunch Dampers - Results(Ashmanskas, Foster) Damping kick shared for Bunches #41 - #51 • Pickup Signal from Bunch #43 TURN NUMBER AFTER INJECTION  MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  35. Three-Turn Filter for Transverse Damper • Damper kick is calculated from single BPM position reading on 3 successive turns. Arbitrary Betatron Phase of Kicker can be accommodated MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  36. HERA-P Damper uses a 3-turn Digital FIR Filter Klute, Kohaupt et. al. EPAC ‘96 MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  37. 3 Turn Filter Coefficients • Damper kick is weighted sum of beam positions on the 3 previous turns. • 3 Filter Coefficients Uniquely Determined by: • System Gain • Betatron Phase Desired at Kicker • Constraint that sum of filter coefficients = 0 (so that filter does not respond to DC offsets.) MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  38. Transverse/ Injection Damper FPGA Logic(single pickup with 3-turn filter) Gain Balance Weighted Sum for Arbitrary Betatron Phase Pickup ADC FIR Filter 1-turn Delay 1-turn Delay 1-turn Delay 14 ADC Standard BPM Processing 3 - Turn Filter Power Amp. Stripline Kicker 106 MHz Optional Pre-compensation Filter for Cable DAC > 27 MHz MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  39. Narrow band vs. Wide band Dampers • In some cases instabilities only occur with specific frequency and mode patterns in ring • Dealing specifically with those modes lowers the required kicker power and reduces noise. • A wide band (bunch-by-bunch) damper can use digital filtering to provide higher gain for specific mode patterns ( lower power amp.) • Many digital filters can operate simultaneously inside some device -- ADC and DAC are shared The flexibility of Digital Filtering inside the FPGA is a major advantage of this approach. MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  40. 3. Recycler Transverse Injection Dampers 2.5 MHz Bunch-by-Bunch Injection Damper  Reduces load on Recycler Stochastic Cooling system • Eliminate Emittance Growth from Pbar injection errors caused by AP3 line drift • Eliminate emittance growth due to waveform defect in Accumulator extraction kicker • Simplify & Speed up AccumulatorRR Transfers • Will take place every ~30 mins in Run IIb MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  41. Differences between Recycler and MI Dampers • RR dampers will track 4 bunches (vs. 588 in MI) • RR signals will have 21 samples/bunch (vs.5) • RR firmware will provide ACNET registers representing the Amplitude, Phase and Bunch length of each of the 4 bunches. • RR firmware will also provide registers for phase and amplitude of stacked DC beam. MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  42. 106 MHz Digitization of the Recycler signals is overkill, but allows the same hardware to be used in MI & Recycler MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  43. 4. Recycler Longitudinal Damper • Bunch-by-Bunch 2.5 MHz Injection Damper • Eliminate Emittance Growth from Pbar injection mismatches caused by Phase and Energy errors • Reduces load on Recycler Stochastic Cooling system • Simplify & Speed up AccumulatorRR Transfers • Will take place every ~30 mins in Run IIb THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS DAMPER DEPENDS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE RECYCLER STOCHASTIC COOLING MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster

  44. 5. Recycler Transverse Dampers • Instability Control Damper to Suppress Possible Transverse Instabilities of Debunched (DC) Beam in Recycler • These instabilities have been seen in Accumulator but not yet in Recycler. • Low-noise pickup w/hybrid & preamp in tunnel • 1-3 Turn Digital delay filter using Echotek board • Kicker amplifier has low power requirement <~20W MI/RR Dampers - G. W. Foster
