BEAM POSITION MONITOR SYSTEM FOR 2 MEV ELECTRON COOLER FOR COSY

The 2 MEV electron cooler for COSY storage ring FZJ is assembling in BINP. Beam position monitor (BPM) system for orbit measurements has been developed and fabricated at BINP. The system contains 2 BPMs inside the cooling section and 10 BPMs in transport channels. Continuous electron beam is modulated with a 3 MHz signal for capability to get signals from pickup electrodes. The beam current modulation can be varied in the range of 0.3-1.5 mA. The BPMs inside the cooling section can measure both electron and proton beams. It is achieved by means of switching the reference signals inside the BPM electronics. The BPM electronics provides highly precise beam position measurements. Position measurement error doesn’t exceed 1 micron. Design features of the BPM system, its parameters and testing results are presented in this paper.
