Description

At the heavy-ion accelerator UNIversal Linear ACcelerator (UNILAC) at GSI Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research (GSI) in Darmstadt, measurements of the longitudinal emittance were performed using a Fast Faraday Cup (FFC) installed in a dispersive section. The FFC provides high-resolution, time-resolved measurements of the charge distribution along the longitudinal beam profile. Different buncher settings were applied to study the longitudinal beam dynamics and identify the phase and energy foci at the FFC location. Based on these measurements, beam dynamics calculations were carried out to determine the longitudinal emittance at the exit of the Alvarez section. Measurement and calculation results will be presented.
