Installation and test of a beam monitor for non-destructive phase and amplitude measurements at the S-DALINAC* — •Maximilian Herbert, Thore Bahlo, Christoph Burandt, Patrick Nonn, Florian Hug, and Norbert Pietralla — Institut für Kernphysik, TU Darmstadt, Darmstadt, Germany

The S-DALINAC is a superconducting linear electron accelerator providing electron beams with kinetic energies of up to 130 MeV. For nondestructive measurements of phase and amplitude of the beam, a beam monitor has been developed. The underlying model for the design of the monitor is a pillbox cavity. Its geometric dimensions have been configured to match the accelerator frequency of 3 GHz using CST Particle Studio and additional mechanical adjustments after construction. In the course of developing the beam monitor, a testing setup has been designed and constructed in order to simulate an electron beam with a desired frequency and beam current. This makes it possible to perform tests of a beam monitor before its installation. We will present the parameters of the monitor, the results of the test setup and first measurements with beam.
