Funding: This study is supported by Istanbul University Scientific Research Commission Project ID 33250 and TUBITAK Project no : 119M774. A testbeam using a Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) operating at 800 MHz, to accelerate a 1.5mA proton beam to 2MeV energy has been designed, manufactured and is currently being commissioned at KAHVELab, Istanbul. The beam from the microwave discharge ion source (IS) must be matched to the RFQ via an optimized Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) line which also contains an integrated measurement station, called MBOX. The MBOX is designed to measure the beam current and profile, as well as the beam emittance, to ensure an accurate match between IS and RFQ. It includes a number of diagnostic tools: a Faraday Cup, a scintillator screen, and a pepper pot plate (PPP). During the commissioning, beam images were taken at different points on the beamline. Other measurements were also taken with different screen materials and different plates in the MBOX box. The analysis software was also developed and tested for the PP photo analysis. This contribution will present the proton beamline components, MBOX diagnostic tools and will focus on the measurements, especially on the PPP emittance analysis. |
