Description
One of the most fundamental aspects of the slow extraction process is the uniformity of the spill. In this contribution, the application of transverse radio-frequency (RF) noise excitation is investigated to mitigate the low-frequency ripple (∼100 Hz), which is caused by imperfections in the power converters supplying current to the CERN Proton Synchrotron’s (PS) main magnets. A transverse RF exciter and a realistic power converter ripple are incorporated into an Xsuite simulation model of the CERN PS to simulate the slow extraction process and benchmarked with beam measurements.
