| Abstract | An intercepting probe for the TRIUMF cyclotron capable of measuring phase and time structure of the circulating beam was designed, manufactured, installed into the tank and tested in 2005. The signals extracted from the probe are then processed by a pair of diplexers, where low frequency and high frequency components are separated. The low frequency signal is directed to our standard electronics for processing and provides both dc current and a time of flight signal with a rise time of <0.1 µs. At the high frequency output a signal-to-noise ratio of about 4 at 250 nA average current and 0.1 % duty cycle was measured in the presence of rf noise from the cyclotron resonators. Beam time structure as short as 1 ns was resolved. Additional efforts will be required to further suppress the noise. |
