This review explores the concept of injection painting in particle accelerators, focusing on its application within the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at BNL. By adjusting the phase space of the injected beam, different particle distributions can be achieved, which enhances target fulfillment, reduces beam losses, and extends foil lifespan. The study outlines basic painting schemes, such as correlated and anti-correlated painting, and presents analytical expressions regarding particle distribution. The importance of optimizing bump functions for minimizing foil heating and maximizing beam efficiency is emphasized.

SNS ASAC Review INJECTION PAINTING, FOIL& TARGET DISTRIBUTION Joanne Beebe-Wang BNL, Upton, NY 11973, USA September 13, 2000
Introduction • What is injection painting: • It is an injection with a controlled phase space offset between the centroid of injected beam and the closed orbit in the ring to achieve a different particle distribution from the injected beam. • Why injection painting for SNS: • to satisfy target requirements • to reduce beam losses due to space charge • to reduce foil hits (foil life-time, beam loss at foil) Joanne Beebe-Wang

But, if 1) distribution of injected beam can be expressed as n(x,x’,y,y’)=nx(x,x’) ny(y,y’) 2) the bump in (x, x’) phase space moves independently from (y, y’), it becomes a 2-D by 2-D problem. In normalized x, px phase space, if - changes slow compare to betatron oscillation, particles injected at P paint the same phase space as particles injected at P1. Maximum x is determined by the particles injected at Q. Joanne Beebe-Wang
Analytical Expression (continued) Particle distribution due to transverse phase space painting: for a single particle: If the distribution of injected beam is Gaussian with 0x and 0y where where I0(z) is the modified Bessel function of order zero, and center offset ( x0(t), x’0(t)) Joanne Beebe-Wang
Analytical Expression (continued) • From the analytical expression of particle distribution we can find out: • Very high local density at the center of the beam if x(t)=y(t)=0. So, one should not have zero offset in 4-D phase space any time. • Correlated painting will give a rectangular shaped beam distribution with high density along the diagonal line, and low density on the x- and y-axis. • If 0x << x(t) and 0y << y(t), anti-correlated painting with offsets x(t) = A t1/2 , y(t) = B (tinj -t)1/2 will give a KV-like particle distribution at time tinj .

Foil Hits & Beam Loss Beam loss as a consequence of foil traversal through the following mechanism: (1GeV proton, foil=300g/cm2, foil traversal rate=7hits/particle) • Nuclear Scattering estimated fractional loss=3x10-5 • Particle loss in gap due to energy straggling estimated fractional loss=3x10-6 • Transverse emittance growth due to multiple Scattering estimated =4x10-2mm-mr Joanne Beebe-Wang

Injection Beam Loss Beam loss caused by injection errors: • Major sources of beam loss that go to the injection dump: • Foil Inefficiency (FI) • Foil 400200g/cm2 • FI = 210% • Foil miss (FM) • (see figures) • Injection dump limit: • FM + FI 10% Transverse position Linac emittance error error c at injection=inj-0.5 mm-mr Joanne Beebe-Wang
Injection Errors caused by Injection Mismatch There could be three kinds injection errors caused by injection mismatch. They cause emittance growth in the circulating beam. Current design: UN=120mm-mr, inj,y=7.24m, inj,y=0.042, p/p=0.25% • Steering MismatchExpected x = 0.2 mm, x’ = 0.2 mradRMS,UN =0.9 mm-mr • Dispersion Mismatch Designed D = 7 cm, expected D’= 0.02 RMS,UN =0.004 mm-mr • -function Mismatch Expected /M = /M = 0.025 RMS,UN =0.02 mm-mr The impact on circulating beam emittance growth is negligible.

Target Distribution Beam requirements at the target Joanne Beebe-Wang
Conclusions • Simulation shows that correlated painting has better chance to meet the target requirement and may minimize halo. Anti-correlated painting causes excessive halo at full intensity. • Halo/tail driven byspace charge and magnet errors can be reduced by splitting tunes. • Injection error increases foil-miss rate which causesincreased dump load and decreased beam power. Its impact on beam emittance growth is negligible. • Injection , -function mismatch can reduce foil heating. It can also be used to reduce the foil traversal rate for increased linac emittance.
