PROGRESS IN ACCELERATORS AND DETECTORS AT TRISTAN Kazuhisa NAKAJIMA

National Laboratory for High Energy Physics, Oho, Tsukuba-shi, Ibaraki-ken, 305, Japan We have conducted the first year of operation and experiments of the TRISTAN e + e - collider since successful commissioning . The current status of accelerator performance and collider experiments at TRISTAN are presented along with future upgrading programs. Finally operational aspects on beam backgrounds and radiation problems are mentioned .

1 . Introduction The TRISTAN project [1] was approved and started in 1981, aiming at the construction of an e + e - collider with a center-of-mass energy of 60 GeV . An accumulation ring was constructed in two years . A main ring was commissioned with e + e - collisions at the world highest energy of 50 GeV in November 1986 and the first large angle Bhabha event was observed in the VENUS detector just five years after the ground breaking ceremony. The accelerator complex of TRISTAN is composed of a 2 .5 GeV injector linac for electrons and positrons, an accumulation ring (AR), and a main ring (MR) . A

At each collision point of the main ring, there are four experimental halls named TSUKUBA, OHO, FUJI and NIKKO, to which four experiments, TOPAZ, AMY, VENUS and SHIP, are assigned, respectively . During the last year, we have performed colliding beam experiments for about 2300 = 50, 52, 55 and 56 GeV. hours at

The total number of magnets deployed in the MR is 1472 ; 272 bending magnets each of which is 5 .86 m long, 392 quadrupole magnets, 240 sextupole magnets, 520 correction magnets, 24 skew magnets and 24 wiggler magnets. These magnets are installed very precisely . Especially the alignment of the quadrupole magnets is adjusted within an rms error of 0 .2 mm radially, 0.3 mm azimuthally and 0 .2 mm vertically [3]. The rf system plays an important role in an e + e storage ring in order to keep a high energy and a high luminosity . On both sides of four experimental halls in the MR, 80 sections are allocated to rf cavity installation or the beam injection system. At present 52 sec tions of these are occupied by room temperature rf I. FUTURE ACCELERATORS

K. Nakajima / Progress in accelerators and detectors at TRISTAN vacuum pump in the MR. After an improvement of the DIP the average pressure in the MR is about 10 -6 Pa with a beam current of 10 mA in the 28 GeV operation . One of the important operational tasks is a beam orbit control. A closed orbit in the MR can be measured with an accuracy of 50 lum by use of 400 position monitor pickups located at all quadrupole magnets. The closed orbit distortion can be corrected within _+ 1 nun horizontally and ±0.5 nun vertically by an on-line computer. The automatic tune measurement system for betatron oscillations and the synchrotron radiation monitor system giving a visual beam image are indispensable beam diagnostic tools [6] . The TRISTAN accelerator is controlled with 25 16bit minicomputers which are distributed around the accelerator and linked together with an optical fiber ring network . The accelerator devices are controlled with touch panels on the operator's console in the control center. Fig. 3 shows a schematic diagram of the TRISTAN control system [7] .

The shunt impedance of the APS cavity, which stands for the accelerating efficiency, is about 22 M2/m . The total impedance amounts to 6178 MS2 which is compared to 2300 MS2 at PETRA . The rf power is generated by 26 klystrons each of which outputs 1 MW in cw and drives four 9-cell cavity units . This room temperature rf system produces a maximum accelerating voltage of 330 MV . It is a distinctive feature of the TRISTAN vacuum system [5] that all the vacuum components are made of aluminum alloy materials . A special extrusion technique is used in manufacturing vacuum pipes and chambers in order to realize ultrahigh vacuum performance . A distributed sputter ion pump (DIP) works as a main

3. Colliding beam performance of TRISTAN The TRISTAN MR has been operated for about 4700 hours until March 1988 for the use of physics experiments and accelerator developments . The operation statistics of TRISTAN is given in fig . 4 . The operational developments have been devoted to increase the beam current and the luminosity . The linac injector can provide the AR with - 50 mA electron beam in a short pulse of 2 ns (FWHM) at a repetition rate of 25 Hz. A positron beam can be attained with a peak current of - 10 mA after a 200 KEK central computers

extraction energy in the AR and transferred to the MR with an efficiency of 60-70% . We have searched for optimum operating conditions of the MR surveying all controllable machine parameters . A distinctive feature of the TRISTAN operation is the use of wiggler magnets which are installed in each quadrant . They work effectively to stabilize beams and to decrease beam-beam effects so that no separation between electron and positron beams is necessary during the injection . The maximum current per bunch is limited to around 5 mA due to single beam instabilities at the injection . The total beam current of two electron and two positron bunches amounts to - 14 mA . The optimum parameters were found by hunting for working points on the betatron tune diagram, rf voltages and closed orbits. Fig. 5 shows the maximum bunch current as a function of the rf voltage at the injection . Ramping of the beam energy has been carried out without beam loss from the injection energy of 7 .5 GeV to the flat top energy of 28 GeV . The beta function at the collision point is tuned to 1 .8 m/2 .0 m horizontally and 10 cm vertically . The rf frequency is slightly shifted in order to reduce the transverse beam emittance . The rf frequency shift of +1 .8 kHz lowers the beam emittance by a factor of 40% at 28 GeV so that the luminosity gains by the same factor, although this procedure requires a 10% higher rf voltage. Another effective procedure increasing the luminosity is to reduce the verticalto-horizontal emittance ratio . This ratio can be lowered to - 1% by making a fine adjustment of the closed orbit . Fig . 6 shows luminosities and vertical tune shift parameters measured at 28 GeV as a function of the current per beam. The peak luminosity attains to 1 .4 x 10 31 cm -2 s -1 and the maximum beam-beam tune shift reaches 0 .035. The luminosity is still proportional to the beam current squared. The vertical tune shift parameter, which is a measure of beam-beam effects, increases linearly to the beam current . It indicates that the luminosity is not saturated at the beam-beam limit .

There are three general purpose detectors, VENUS, TOPAZ and AMY, rolled in TRISTAN . The fourth experiment, SHIP, is a special purpose detector aimed at the search for highly ionizing particles . Fig . 7 shows a cross sectional view of the VENUS detector [8] ., The basic tracking device of VENUS is the inner drift chamber with 6 layers of anode and cathode readouts and the central drift chamber consisting of 20 layers of axial and 9 layers of stereo wires. They are contained in a very thin superconducting solenoid with a 0 .75 T magnetic field . The transition detector will be accommodated for particle identification outside the central drift chamber as a detector upgrade. Outside the l . FUTURE ACCELERATORS

solenoid cryostat there are barrel streamer tubes and 5160 barrel lead glass counters for electromagnetic calorimetry. The end cap calorimeter of VENUS is constituted by liquid argon detectors with lead converters of 20 .5X0 (radiation lengths) . The muon tracking system consists of 6 interaction-length muon filters and 5422 multilayer drift tubes in the barrel and end cap part . Other detectors are 96 time-of-flight (TOF) counters and the luminosity monitor. The TOPAZ detector [9] is shown in fig. 8a. A principal feature of the TOPAZ detector is the time projection chamber (TPC) as a central tracking device. The TPC gives us two unique capabilities of three dimensional particle tracking and particle identification due to dE/dx measurement. Inside the TPC, there is accommodated the inner drift chamber consisting of 10 layers of anode wire and cathode strip readouts . 64 segments TOF counters are between the 1 T superconducting solenoide and the TPC. The solenoid coil is surrounded by 4 layers of the barrel drift chamber and the barrel calorimeter consists of 4320 lead glass counters . The end cap calorimeter is a gas sampling calorimeter consisting of a 18X0 thick lead/proportional tube sandwich . The outermost detector is 4 layers of muon drift chamber interleaved with muon filters with a total thickness of 1 m. A schematic drawing of the TPC is shown in fig. 8b . The TPC is enclosed by the FRP (fiber reinforced plastic) pressure vessel with dimensions 2.6 m in diameter and 3 m in length . The vessel is divided into two drift cells by the central membrane to which HV is applied. Drifting electrons are detected at both

The TPC is operated at 3.5 atm of P10 gas with a drift field of 353 V/cm in a 1 T magnetic field. The AMY detector [10] is represented in fig. 9. One of the most characteristic features of AMY is a 3 T superconducting solenoid which provides precise momentum measurements in a compact volume . The tracking system of AMY consists of 4 layers of straw chambers, and the central tracking chamber consists of 25 layers of axial- and 15 layers of stereo wires. The

transverse momentum resolution is as good as 0 .7%p r. The main AMY calorimeter is the barrel shower counter which is a highly segmented gas calorimeter consisting of 20 layers of plastic tube chambers with cathode pads, interleaved with 5 Xo thick lead sheets . This shower calorimeter gives a good y/m° separation. The muon detection system of AMY is a thick iron absorber and 4 layers of muon chamber. For the purpose of electron identification, a synchrotron X-ray detector is installed outside the central drift chamber. The SHIP detector [111 consists of 12 modules of a CR-39 laminated stack set around the collision point, I. FUTURE ACCELERATORS

6. Upgrading programs of TRISTAN Upgrading programs [13] for energy and luminosity are in progress . The energy upgrade of the MR can be carried out by the installation of superconducting rf cavities into the NIKKO rf sections . In addition to the present conventional rf cavities, 16 superconducting cavities will be installed in October 1988 to increase the beam energy up to 31 GeV. Further 16 cavities will be deployed in April 1989 so that the total accelerating voltage should reach as high as 570 MV which gives a maximum beam energy of 33 GeV. The superconducting 5-cell cavity made of niobium sheets has been developed successfully in KEK as a consequence of R&D work over many years. We have already achieved a quality factor higher than 2 x 10 9 at 5 MV/m and a maximum accelerating field higher than 10 MV/m as shown in fig. 14 . Actual beam tests have been done in the AR to demonstrate stable operation with high field and high beam current. The liquid helium cryogenic systems consist of 16 cryostats each of which contains two 5-cell cavities, a 380 m long transfer line and a refrigerator system with 6.5 kW cooling power at 4.4 K. The luminosity upgrade is conceived as a minibeta scheme using superconducting quadrupoles (QCS) rather than the present low-beta scheme . The installation of QCS is scheduled in the spring 1990. The minibeta scheme allows us to reduce the beta functions up to 0.85 m horizontally and 4 cm vertically at the collision point, provided with 70 T/m field gradient of QCS. The luminosity should gain by a factor of 2.

radiation problems in high energy and high luminosity colliders. The beam background causes detectors to prevent a regular operation, to increase a trigger rate and a dead time, and to damage itself. In the straight section of the MR around each detector, the 4 fixedand 2 movable beam masks are installed to protect experiments from high synchrotron radiation fluxes and from off-momentum electron/positron backgrounds . Unfortunately, these masks were not always effective to reduce beam noise on the detector . According to our experience, a drastic improvement was brought about by expanding the diameter of the beam pipe inside the detector . The minimum diameter of the beam pipe should be 20 times larger than the maximum beam size around the collision point. Even the outermost muon chambers have suffered from beam backgrounds, probably caused by soft photons. This type of beam background has been decreased by one order of magnitude after hanging 2 mm thick lead sheets on the wall between the experimental hall and the accelerator tunnel . In a daily physics operation, the beam background depends on fine adjustments of the beam orbit, rf frequency shifts and improvement of the vacuum . An example of the beam background [14] is shown in fig. 15 . LUMI BKG RUN1882

Excessive radiation causes serious damage to many accelerator components . Examples have been found on parts of magnets, vacuum chamber components, cables, electronics parts and so on in only six months . The radiation dose in the TRISTAN tunnel is 10 4-10 5 Gy/A h around the beam chamber with a lead shield and _ 10 6 Gy/A h on the chamber surface for 27 .5 GeV beam energy. The radiation damage on the aluminum vacuum components was caused by HN0 3 produced from N02 and H 2O . Connectors and cables were damaged by HF produced by decomposition of Teflon insulators. Cooling rubber hoses of magnets were hardened by radiation exposure . The radiation damage for electronics components was tested [15] in the TRISTAN MR . It was found that silicon transistors were relatively endurable up to several 10 4 Gy while CMOS RAM and EPROM were quite vulnerable to the radiation . These ICs were broken at an exposure of 700 Gy . Fig . 16 show the influence of radiation dose on typical operational amplifiers . In order to make high energy and high luminosity possible, it is urged that radiation resistive materials and electronics should be devised and applied to the accelerator, and detectors as well as completed radiation shields are made . 8 .
