Versatile Beamline Cryostat for the Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC) for FAIR
/ Haider, David (Darmstadt, GSI) ; De Gersem, Herbert (Darmstadt, Tech. U.) ; Golm, Jessica (Jena U. ; CERN) ; Koettig, Torsten (CERN) ; Kurian, Febin (Darmstadt, GSI) ; Marsic, Nicolas (Darmstadt, Tech. U.) ; Müller, Wolfgang (Darmstadt, Tech.

The Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC) extends the measurement range of traditional non-destructive current monitors used in accelerator beamlines down to a few nano-amperes of direct beam current. This is achieved by a cryogenic environment of liquid helium around the beamline, in which the beam’s magnetic field is measured with a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID), which is itself enclosed in a superconducting shielding structure.

The storage of low current beams as well as the long extraction times from the synchrotrons at FAIR require non-destructive beam intensity monitoring with a current resolution of nanoampere. To fulfill this requirement, the concept of the Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC), based on the low temperature SQUID, is used to obtain an extremely sensitive beam current transformer. [...]
