Description
The Neutralization Beam Energy Measurement (NBEM) system at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) marks a significant step forward in precisely measuring proton beam energy, which is critical for a variety of accelerator-based research applications. This technology outperforms existing approaches such as time-of-flight and spectrometer calibration, which are prone to low precision and environmental vulnerability. The NBEM system, which combines foil and laser neutralization techniques, achieves great conversion efficiency and superior sample rates. We have recently installed hardware that allows us to take initial measurements of the H- energy spread. We present the details of this set-up and initial results.
