We have conducted a series of experiments designed to measure the flashover strength of various azimuthally symmetric 45^o vacuum-insulator configurations. The principal objective of the experiments was to identify a configuration with a flashover strength greater than that of the standard design, which consists of a 45^o polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) insulator between flat electrodes. The thickness d and circumference C of the insulators tested were held constant at 4.318 and 95.74 cm, respectively. The peak voltage applied to the insulators ranged from 0.8 to 2.2 MV. The rise time of the voltage pulse was 40– 60 ns; the effective pulse width [as defined in Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 7, 070401 (2004)] was on the order of 10 ns. Experiments conducted with flat aluminum electrodes demonstrate that the flashover strength of a crosslinked polystyrene (Rexolite) insulator (18 +/- 7)% higher than that of PMMA. Experiments conducted with a Rexolite insulator and an anode plug, i.e., an extension of the anode into the insulator, demonstrate that a plug can increase the flashover strength by an additional (44 +/- 11)% The results are consistent with the Anderson model of anode-initiated flashover, and confirm previous measurements. It appears that a Rexolite insulator with an anode plug can, in principle, increase the peak electromagentic power that can be transmitted across a vacuum interface by a factor of [(1.18)X(1.44)]² = 2.9 over that which can be achieved with the standard design.

ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC DESIGN OF THE g-2 MAGNETIC KICKER

APAC98 Proceedings

The ultra-high precision g-2 experiment requires a fast kicker to deflect incoming muon beam with a momentum of 3.094 Gev/c. A magnetic kicker was selected since this approach requires the lowest excitation voltage of all designs considered. However, a higher driving current (>6000A) is required which leads to more residual eddy current field to influence the main dipole magnetic field. Several possible magnetic kicker designs were investigated to determine their effects on kicker field quality, driving efficiency (B/I) and inductance per unit length. A satisfatory construction is a two plate kicker with shaped edges for the two electrodes. Using the transient eddy current analyses (Opera 2d/TR)[1], the authors studied a variety of factors which affect the eddy current residual field. This paper presents the electric and magnetic parameters of the magnetic kicker which was completed in 1996 and has been put into operation now.

Computed Electric Charges of Grains with Highly Irregular Shapes

Workshop on Dust in Planetary Systems (ESA SP-643).
September 26-30 2005, Kauai, Hawaii. Editors: Krueger, H. and Graps, A., p.177-180. Published 2007
Auer, Siegried; Kempf, Sascha; Gruen, Eberhard
The electric charges of highly irregular dust grains were computed. We find that, of all possible shapes, a sphere carries the lowest charge and "fluffy" grains, especially grains consisting of long rods, carry charges as high as kappa=30 times the charge of a spherical grain having the same volume and surface potential. We conclude that one tends to over-estimate a grain's size when deducing it from the grain's charge, unless the shape factor kappa is taken into account.

Three-dimensional modeling of potential and electric-field distributions along an EHV ceramic post insulator covered with ice - Part I: Simulations of a melting period
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery
Publication Date: July 2005
Volume: 20, Issue: 3, page(s): 2006- 2013
Volat, C. Farzaneh, M.
Univ. of Quebec-Chicoutimi, Chicoutimi, Que., Canada;
The main objective of this paper is to determine the potential and electric-field distributions along a typical ceramic extremely-high-voltage post insulator covered with atmospheric ice during a melting period. Commercial software, Coulomb 3D, based on the boundary element method (BEM), was used for all of the three-dimensional modeling and simulations. It was demonstrated that the BEM is well suited for evaluating the effect of ice shedding on the potential and electric-field distributions along an ice-covered insulator during a melting period. The results obtained show that the length and number of ice free zones, also called air gaps, are the major parameters that affect the applied voltage distribution along an ice-covered insulator. The mean electric field per arcing distance, affected mainly by the air-gap lengths, can provide a good indication of the presence of partial arcing along the different air gaps.

The Mathieu equation governs the forced motion of a swing, the stability of ships and columns, Faraday surface wave patterns on water, the dynamics of electrons in Penning traps, and the behaviour of parametric amplifiers based on electronic or superconducting devices. Theory predicts that parametric resonances occur near drive frequencies of 2v₀=n, where v₀ is the system's natural frequency and n is an integer >1. But in macroscopic systems, only the first instability region can typically be observed, because of damping and the exponential narrowing of the regions with increasing n. Here we report parametrically excited torsional oscillations in a single-crystal silicon microelectromechanical system. Five instability regions can be measured, due to the low damping, stability and precise frequency control achievable in this system. The centre frequencies of the instability regions agree with theoretical predictions. We propose an application that uses parametric excitation to reduce the parasitic signal in capacitive sensing with microelectromechanical systems. Our results suggest that microelectromechanical systems can provide a unique testing ground for dynamical phenomena that are difficult to detect in macroscopic systems.

Passive superconducting shielding for magnetic refrigerators has advantages over active shielding and passive ferromagnetic shielding in that it is lightweight and easy to construct. However, it is not as easy to model and does not fail gracefully. Failure of a passive superconducting shield may lead to persistent flux and persistent currents. Unfortunately, modeling software for superconducting materials is not as easily available as is software for simple coils or for ferromagnetic materials. This paper will discuss ways of using available software to model passive superconducting shielding.

An adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator (ADR) is under development for use in cooling relatively large loads (10–100 mW) at 4 K and rejecting that heat to a cryocooler operating at 10 K. ADRs can operate in this temperature range with an efficiency of 75% of Carnot, saving as much as 2/3 of the required overall input power. In addition this ADR can provide cooling down to 0.4 K. The ADR magnet consists of 8 short coils wired in series and arranged in a toroid to provide self-shielding of its magnetic field. Eliminating passive or active shields saves 30% of the mass of the system. The average field is 3 Tesla using 5 amps. In the first model the coils are wound with ordinary NbTi superconducting wire and operated at 4 K. A second version will then use fine Nb3Sn wire to provide complete 10 K operation. As a refrigerant for this temperature range we are using readily available gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) crystals, which provide suitable performance. In the future we will switch to either GdLiF4 or GdF3, which have 13% or 30%, respectively, more cooling power per volume than GGG. We use gas gap heat switches to alternately connect the toroid to the cold load and the warm heat sink. A small continuous stage maintains the cold end at 4 K while the main toroid is recycled. Data on toroid , magnet performance with respect to central field vs. current and fringing field vs. current are given. Data on the transient heating due to hysteresis losses within the superconductor are also presented.

R. Agustsson,J. Rosenzweig

A chicane compressor is being designed and constructed at UCLA for implementation at the BNL Accelerator Test Facility. The beam optics, including collective fields, and expected performance of the device has been simulated using TRACE3D and ELEGANT. Based on these studies, as well as constraints due to downstream ATF optics, the chicane magnet specifications were determined. The dipole magnets were designed using AMPERES 3D magnetostatic modeling, and have been constructed. Implementation of this device at the ATF, as well as initial physics experiments on coherent synchrotron radiation emission (and associated emittance growth) at 70 MeV, and expected performance enhancement of the VISA SASE FEL experiment, are discussed.

A spatially uniform magnetic energy density gradient (delB²) distribution offers a controlled environment to separate magnetically tagged cells or biomolecules based on their magnetophoretic mobility [L. R. Moore et al., J. Biochem. Biophys. Methods 37, 11 (1998)]. A design to obtain a uniform delB² distribution for a microelectromechanical-systems-based magnetic cell separator was developed. The design consists of an external magnetic circuit and a microfabricated channel (biochip) with embedded discrete pole pieces on the channel walls. The two-dimensional and three-dimensional magnetostatic simulation softwares utilizing boundary element methods were used to optimize the positions and the dimensions of the discrete pole pieces, as well as the external magnetic circuit—the combination of which would generate a uniform delB² profile over the channel cross section. It was found that the discrete pole pieces required specific magnetic properties (saturation magnetization constant >1.55 T) to affect the overall delB² distribution. Investigating different positions of the discrete pole pieces inside the external magnetic field indicated that the proposed design could generate uniform delB² distribution with ±100 µm displacements along the height/width and ±1° inclination from the optimum position.

Design studies for a H^- ion extraction system

At the University of Frankfurt, a high current H^- ion source was developed and tested. A H– beam current of 120 mA with an energy of 35 keV was extracted using an emission opening radius of 5 mm. This source was equipped with a diode extraction system. Thus, the extraction voltage determines the beam energy, depending on the plasma density. In order to adjust the extraction voltage independently from the beam energy, a 65 kV extractor is being designed. It consists of a compact four electrode (tetrode) system. The electron dumping will be performed after the tetrode system. For computing three dimensional magnetic field distributions the code AMPERES has been used. The influence of magnetic fields on the beam path has been taken into account. The article presents the layout of a compact 65 kV extractor for 120 mA H^-.

Magnetic cross-talk compensation for an optical current transducer
IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, Vol.50, No.5, pp.1071-1075, 2001.
P. Niewczas, W.I. Madden, W.C. Michie, A. Cruden and J.R McDonald
In this paper, we analyze the errors associated with magnetic crosstalk within point type, or unlinked, optical current transducers (OCTs) working in a three-phase electric current transmission systems. For many practical conductor arrangements, the magnetic crosstaIk may introduce errors unacceptable for the accuracy requirements demanded from the OCT. A solution to this problem is devised around a unique compensation method which solves, in real time, a set of linear equations, each representing the instantaneous output signal from one phase current sensor.

This paper addresses fundamental issues associated with the development of a real time inductive scanning system for non-destructive testing of pre-stressed and reinforced concrete. Simulated results has indicated that given a coil dimension of 300mm×300mm×2.5mm, 10mm rebars can be imaged down to a depth of 100 mm. Studies also indicate that the vertical component of the induced magnetic field is most favourable as it can be readily reconstructed to yield geometryand dimensional information pertaining to the rebar structure.

This paper demonstrates the feasibility of using solid-state magneto-inductive probes for detecting and imaging of steel reinforcing bars embedded within pre-stressed and reinforced concrete. Changes in the inductance of the sensor material are directly proportional to the strength of the measured magnetic field parallel to the sensor. Experimental results obtained by scanning steel bars specimens are presented. General performance characteristics and sensor output limitations are investigated by using different orientations, sensing distance, excitation intensity, bar sizes and geometries.

Phase-contrast x-ray imaging with a liquid-metal-jet-anode microfocus source
Appl. Phys. Lett. 91, 074104 (2007)
T. Tuohimaa, M. Otendal, and H. M. Hertz
Phase-contrast methods increase contrast, detail, and selectivity in x-ray imaging. Present compact x-ray sources do not provide the necessary spatial coherence with sufficient power to allow the laboratory-scale high-resolution phase-contrast imaging with adequate exposure times. In this letter, the authors demonstrate phase-contrast imaging with few-micron detail employing a compact ~6.5 µm spot liquid-metal-jet-anode high-brightness microfocus source. The 40 W source is operated at more than ten times higher electron-beam power density than present microfocus sources and is shown to provide sufficient spatial coherence as well as scalability to high power, thereby enabling the application of phase-contrast x-ray imaging with short exposure times in clinics and laboratories.

High-intensity electron beam for liquid-metal-jet anode hard x-ray generation

We report on our progress towards the experimental realization of a liquid-metal-jet-anode x-ray source with high brightness. We have previously shown that this electron-impact source has potential for very high x-ray brightness by combining small-spot high-flux operation of the electron beam with high-speed operation of the regenerative liquid-metal-jet anode. In the present paper we review the system and describe theoretical calculations for improving the 50 kV, 600 W electron-beam focussing to ~30 µm spot size. With such a system the power density on the liquid-metal-jet would be ~400 kW/mm2, i.e., more than an order of magnitude higher than the power density on a state-of-the-art rotating anode.

High current electrostatic Low-Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) systems are currently being developed for several applications ranging from H- cyclotrons to high intensity linear accelerators. A new design building on the experiences gained from the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) LEBT system was modeled recently in 2D with PBGUNS. In this paper a 3D treatment is given for this new LEBT design for a 60 mA, 65 kV H- beam. For this type of LEBT 3D modeling is essential to accurately model the deflection of the co-extracted electrons from the beam. The beam chopping and steering for RFQ injection also presents a 3D problem for the otherwise cylindrically symmetric geometry. The modeled LEBT can transport a 60 mA H- beam with 0.2 mm mrad 1-rms emittance and Twiss parameters that are in accordance with established SNS LEBT specifications.

A supersonic beam of noble gas atoms is a source of unprecedented brightness. A novel short pulse supersonic nozzle is developed with beam intensity that is higher by at least an order of magnitude than other available sources. We show how this beam can be coherently slowed and focused using elastic reflection from single crystals. Simulations show beam fluxes of 10¹¹ atoms s^-1 at velocities of 50ms^-1 and temperatures of less than 20 µK in the longitudinal direction. Possible applications of this slow beam to the study of atom–surface interactions and atom interferometry are discussed.

Gas delivery and virtual process chamber concept for gas-assisted material processing in a focused ion beam system

Gas-assisted etching and material deposition using gaseous precursors have become a critical part of integrated circuit modification and other applications of focused ion beam (FIB) systems. Widely used methods of gas injection in FIB systems are either needle-type or shroud-type gas delivery nozzles. Each of these methods of gas delivery has significant drawbacks. Release of the gas from the needle-type nozzles is detrimental for the vacuum level in the main chamber of the system, as the gas quickly dissipates from the process area. Insertion of shroud concentrators into the primary ion beam path and the path of secondary electrons leads to a significant decline in the signal-to-noise ratio of the FIB image. Proposed "CUPOLA" geometry of the gas delivery nozzle could allow one to effectively concentrate process gas in the area of interest, as is currently done by shroud concentrators, and, according to secondary-electron trajectory simulations, would significantly improve the signal level of the secondary-electron image, as compared to the shroud concentrators.

The potential placed on this electrode was found to have a profound impact on the diameter of the beam emitted from the device as observed on a phosphor screen. Aspects of the device fabrication process and device operation are discussed. The experimental results obtained are compared to a numerical simulation of device performance and found to be within good agreement.
