Longitudinal phase space reconstruction for a heavy ion accelerator
2020
At the GSI Helmholtzzentrum f\"ur Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany, a prototype cryomodule (advanced demonstrator) for the superconducting (SC) continuous wave (CW) Helmholtz Linear Accelerator (HELIAC) is under construction. A transport line, comprising quadrupole lenses, rebuncher cavities, beam correctors, and adequate beam instrumentation has been built to deliver the beam from the GSI 1.4 MeV/u High Charge Injector (HLI) to the advanced demonstrator, which offers a test environment for SC CW multigap cavities. In order to achieve proper phase space matching, the beam from the HLI must be characterized in detail. In a dedicated machine experiment the bunch shape has been…
Experimental results on the electroweak interaction
1999
Recent results from the four experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL at the Large Electron-Positron collider, LEP at CERN, and by the SLD collaboration at the Stanford Linear Collider, SLC, are reviewed. Analyses from an integrated luminosity of about 150 pb− recorded by each experiment at LEP, taken at different centre-of-mass energies within ±3 GeV around the peak of the Z resonance during the years 1989 to 1995 are available now. Repeated accurate calibrations of the beam energy lead to precise measurements of the mass and of the total width of the Z boson. These results are complemented by measurements at the Z resonance with polarised beams at Stanford. First results from an integrated …

β-decay study of150Er,152Yb, and156Yb: Candidates for a monoenergetic neutrino beam facility
2011
The beta decays of ^{150}Er, ^{152}Yb, and ^{156}Yb nuclei are investigated using the total absorption spectroscopy technique. These nuclei can be considered possible candidates for forming the beam of a monoenergetic neutrino beam facility based on the electron capture (EC) decay of radioactive nuclei. Our measurements confirm that for the cases studied, the EC decay proceeds mainly to a single state in the daughter nucleus.
Operation of the MAMI accelerator with a Wien filter based spin rotation system
2006
A compact spin rotation system based on a Wien filter has been installed at the Mainz microtron accelerator (MAMI). Under operation with varying spin rotation angles a significant change of focal length together with a shift of the central beam trajectory is expected. We demonstrate that these effects can be kept under control. As a consequence operation with spin rotation angles between 0° and ±90° has been achieved without compromising the beam quality and operational stability of MAMI.
Enhanced radiation pressure-assisted acceleration by temporally tuned counter-propagating pulses
2014
Within the last decade, laser-ion acceleration has become a field of broad interest. The possibility to generate short proton- or heavy ion bunches with an energy of a few tens of MeV by table-top laser systems could open new opportunities for medical or technical applications. Nevertheless, today's laser-acceleration schemes lead mainly to a temperature-like energy distribution of the accelerated ions, a big disadvantage compared to mono-energetic beams from conventional accelerators. Recent results 111 of laser-ion acceleration using radiation-pressure appear promising to overcome this drawback. In this paper, we demonstrate the influence of a second counter-propagating laser pulse intera…
Beam parameter stabilization for the P2 experiment at MESA
2020
Abstract The P2 Experiment at MESA (Mainz Energy-recovering Superconducting Accelerator) will measure the weak mixing angle via electron proton scattering at 155 MeV. The expected measured parity violation asymmetry will be about 40 ppb. This requires a high precision beam diagnostic and control system in order to minimize asymmetries that derive from helicity correlated fluctuations of the beam parameters. A control system for position and angle has been installed and tested at MAMI (Mainz Microtron) and the P2 precision requirements for determining the asymmetry and controlling the transverse beam parameters have been met.

POLARIZED ELECTRONS AND POSITRONS AT THE MESA ACCELERATOR
2011
We suggest starting an accelerator physics project called the Mainz Energyrecovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA) as an extension to the experimental facilities at the institute for nuclear physics. MESA may allow us to introduce an innovative internal target regime based on the ERL principle. A second mode of operation will be to use an external polarized electron beam for parity violating experiments. Furthermore, MESA could also allow us to establish a CW source of polarized positrons.
Spinrotator for MAMI
1991
A source of polarized electrons based on the photoemission of a GaAsP-cathode [1] has been set up to inject polarized electrons in the Mainz microtron MAMI. In order to compensate the spin precession in MAMI a spinrotator system has to be integrated in the 100 keV beamline from the source to the injector linac to achieve the required longitudinal spin direction at target position.
