Complementary methods of transverse emittance measurement

Authors: Zagel, James Hu, Martin Jansson, Andreas Thurman-Keup, Randy Yan, Ming-Jen /Fermilab
 
Abstract: Several complementary transverse emittance monitors have been developed and used at the Fermilab accelerator complex. These include Ionization profile Monitors (IPM), Flying Wires, Schottky detectors and a Synchrotron Light Monitor (Synchlite). Mechanical scrapers have also been used for calibration purposes. This paper describes the various measurement devices by examining their basic features, calibration requirements, systematic uncertainties, and applications to collider operation. A comparison of results from different kinds of measurements is also presented.
