00:01.070 --> 00:01.870
Good day everyone.

00:02.150 --> 00:06.830
My name is Meghana Patil and I'm a PhD student at IPPT in KIT and I

00:06.830 --> 00:08.510
work on beam diagnostics for CARA.

00:09.110 --> 00:12.230
Today in my poster I will be talking about CALYPSO and its application

00:12.230 --> 00:13.670
for beam and spectral analysis.

00:14.630 --> 00:18.470
CARA is an accelerator test facility located at KIT with an operation

00:18.470 --> 00:21.290
energy range from 500 MeV to 2.5 GeV.

00:21.890 --> 00:24.730
One of the operation modes is low alpha mode where the momentum

00:24.730 --> 00:28.810
compaction factor is reduced resulting in short punctures which gives

00:28.810 --> 00:32.830
rise to a phenomenon called as micro-puncturing instability and this

00:32.830 --> 00:34.710
is extensively studied in our facility.

00:36.230 --> 00:39.930
To understand such complex beam dynamics which occur in very short

00:39.930 --> 00:42.550
time scales fast real-time measurements are needed.

00:42.870 --> 00:46.650
Hence we need detectors which can have megahertz repetition rate, high

00:46.650 --> 00:50.570
spatial resolution, wide spectral sensitivity, capable of long

00:50.570 --> 00:54.010
acquisition times and also capable of synchronizing with experimental

00:54.010 --> 00:55.830
setup and other diagnostic tools.

00:56.990 --> 00:58.830
One such tool is CALYPSO.

00:59.330 --> 01:02.390
So let me just briefly explain the building blocks of CALYPSO.

01:02.790 --> 01:06.630
We have a microstrip sensor based on a conductor which is connected to

01:06.630 --> 01:08.770
an ASIC operating at megaframe per second.

01:09.250 --> 01:13.630
When fully populated there are 64 ADC channels operating at 125 mega

01:13.630 --> 01:14.510
samples per second.

01:15.010 --> 01:18.530
We have external clock inputs available for synchronizing with the

01:18.530 --> 01:19.430
experimental setup.

01:19.790 --> 01:23.630
We have an on-chip programmable PLL which is used to distribute the

01:23.630 --> 01:25.050
clocks based on user requirement.

01:25.570 --> 01:29.290
This entire detector is connected to an FPGA based standalone card or

01:29.290 --> 01:31.250
a micro TCA based DAQ system.

01:32.850 --> 01:36.010
Let me get in detail about the different kinds of sensors used on

01:36.010 --> 01:36.350
CALYPSO.

01:36.690 --> 01:40.250
The most commonly used is a microstrip silicon sensor designed at KIT

01:40.250 --> 01:41.950
with several topologies and sizes.

01:42.810 --> 01:46.670
There is an anti-reflecting coating applied to them in order to

01:46.670 --> 01:50.590
improve their quantum efficiency in the near ultraviolet visible and

01:50.590 --> 01:51.690
near infrared range.

01:53.090 --> 01:57.730
Silicon is sensitive from 350 nanometer to 1050 nanometer but beyond

01:57.730 --> 01:59.370
this it is basically transparent.

02:00.110 --> 02:03.050
Hence we have to use other semiconductor based sensors like indium

02:03.050 --> 02:05.630
gallium arsenide which is sensitive to 2000 nanometer.

02:06.550 --> 02:10.190
Lead sulfide which is sensitive up to 3300 nanometer and lead selenide

02:10.190 --> 02:12.130
which is sensitive up to 5000 nanometer.

02:12.550 --> 02:15.270
Now let us see the complete data acquisition flow which is currently

02:15.270 --> 02:16.350
implemented in CARA.

02:17.410 --> 02:21.210
The CALYPSO card is connected to the FPGA based DAQ system with a

02:21.210 --> 02:22.370
standard FMC connector.

02:22.970 --> 02:24.890
This FPGA card has two main jobs.

02:25.030 --> 02:28.790
One to provide control to the various circuit elements on CALYPSO and

02:28.790 --> 02:32.190
the second is to transfer the incoming data into a CPU or GPU for

02:32.190 --> 02:34.150
further processing via PISA express.

02:34.710 --> 02:38.610
The newest version of this standalone FPGA card can also be connected

02:38.610 --> 02:41.330
to the micro TCA system via optical fiber.

02:42.190 --> 02:45.410
Now I will give a brief overview of the applications of CALYPSO and

02:45.410 --> 02:46.690
where it is currently used.

02:47.330 --> 02:51.450
At CARA here in we use it for electro-optical spectral decoding as a

02:51.450 --> 02:54.030
way to measure the longitudinal profile of the electron beam.

02:54.610 --> 02:58.230
Here you can see a current setup with the yttrium laser at a

02:58.230 --> 02:59.890
wavelength of 1050 nanometer.

03:00.710 --> 03:03.770
The coulomb field of the electron bunch is encoded in the chirp laser

03:03.770 --> 03:05.750
pulses at the gallium phosphide eo crystal.

03:06.410 --> 03:09.450
The entire system is synchronized to the repetition rate of the

03:09.450 --> 03:11.430
storage ring which is 2.7 megahertz.

03:12.190 --> 03:14.690
Hence in the current setup we operate in a single shot mode.

03:16.190 --> 03:20.250
The energy spread of the electron bunch is also a crucial parameter in

03:20.250 --> 03:21.230
micro bunching studies.

03:21.750 --> 03:24.850
It can be measured by measuring the horizontal bunch profile of the

03:24.850 --> 03:29.130
incoherent synchrotron radiation as it is coupled to the energy spread

03:29.130 --> 03:31.070
in the dispersive sections of the accelerator.

03:32.050 --> 03:36.070
This radiation emitted at the visible light diagnostic port of CARA is

03:36.070 --> 03:40.030
in the visible spectral range from 400 nanometer to 700 nanometer.

03:42.030 --> 03:46.190
The terahertz diagnostics are also crucial for micro bunching studies.

03:46.410 --> 03:49.590
Here we are currently employing CAPTCHA which is a picosecond pulse

03:49.590 --> 03:50.310
sampling system.

03:50.830 --> 03:53.870
And now we are in the process of commissioning a far-field eo setup

03:53.870 --> 03:57.430
with CALIPSO to study and investigate the terahertz radiation emitted

03:57.430 --> 03:58.730
at CARA.

03:59.650 --> 04:03.270
This is a result from the longitudinal bunch diagnostic measurements

04:03.270 --> 04:04.330
done using CALIPSO.

04:04.650 --> 04:08.970
This is the evolution of the longitudinal bunch size over time and

04:08.970 --> 04:12.050
when backfilter propagation is applied, the phase space density of the

04:12.050 --> 04:13.670
electron bunch can be reconstructed.

04:14.250 --> 04:17.790
More details on this can be found in the poster from Godron Neos.

04:18.370 --> 04:21.210
This is the result from the horizontal bunch diagnostics.

04:22.510 --> 04:26.570
This data corresponds to the horizontal bunch position and the size

04:26.570 --> 04:31.230
respectively acquired or processed from the raw data acquired from

04:31.230 --> 04:31.630
CALIPSO.

04:32.350 --> 04:36.750
This data over here corresponds to a spectrogram which was constructed

04:36.750 --> 04:39.590
using the terahertz signal sampled using CAPTCHA.

04:40.290 --> 04:43.570
More details on this can be found in the poster or talk from Miriam

04:43.570 --> 04:44.030
Rossi.

04:45.430 --> 04:49.990
And also the commissioning of CALIPSO at the far-field setup, the

04:49.990 --> 04:53.090
details about this can be found in the poster from Christina Wittman.

04:53.550 --> 04:57.770
And in an overall details about all these can be found also in my

04:57.770 --> 04:58.030
talk.

04:58.390 --> 04:59.250
So please visit.

04:59.590 --> 05:00.010
Thank you.
