Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 6, 063201 (2003) [8 pages]CERN SPS electron cloud heat load measurements and simulations
V. Baglin and B. Jenninger Received 21 May 2002; revised 2 May 2003; published 10 June 2003 A calorimeter, WAMPAC, operating at room temperature has been designed and installed into the SPS to measure directly the electron cloud induced heat load due to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)-type proton beam. Theoretical behavior, calibrations, measurement protocols, preliminary results, and simulation benchmarking are presented. Scaling of the results to the LHC indicated a linear heating power in a LHC dipole of about 500 mW m-1 for 5×1010 protons/bunch-1 for a copper surface which is not fully conditioned (maximum of secondary electron yield ∼1.9). ©2003 The American Physical Society
