Multipole analysis for absolute magnetic field measured by multi-probe pulsed-NMR method
For accelerator dipole magnets, the study on multipole coefficients in a local region is useful for understanding magnet characteristics and checking construction procedure. The multi-probe pulsed-NMR method is a candidate for measurement of the local multipole coefficients. For the absolute fields measured by the multi-probe pulsed-NMR method, a rigorous application of the Fourier expansion is found to yield multipole coefficients. It is made clear that the direction of the dipole field is unable to be determined by the Fourier expansion alone. For estimating alignment accuracy of pulsed-NMR probes, the relationship between errors of multipole coefficients and those of probe position is derived by the Fourier expansion method. For applying of multi-probe pulsed-NMR method to accelerator dipole magnets, we designed and fabricated a field measuring system using two probes. The probes had NMR coils wound around glass ampoules with a diameter of about 1.4 mm. The NMR signal was processed with a phase lock loop circuit to produce the NMR frequency. Dipole field uniformity and multipole coefficients were measured at 0.35 T for a 1.5 m long dipole magnet. It was confirmed that the field data by this NMR system had an accuracy of 10/sup -6/.

The TOPAZ inner drift chamber
We have constructed a cylindrical drift chamber with anode and cathode delay-line readouts, which is the innermost tracking device of the TOPAZ detector. This inner drift chamber (IDC) is used for the tracking of charged particles in both rφ and rz planes. Fast track-finding logics have been developed for the event triggering. We describe the design, the construction and the performances of the IDC in the first beam run.

Experimental observations of the ion-related coupled bunch instability in a bunch train in TRISTAN AR
An experiment was carried out in TRISTAN AR for the search of the fast beam-ion instability (FBII). A train of 100 bunches with 2 ns spacing was stored with the help of the transverse bunch feedback system. The nitrogen gas was intentionally leaked into the inside of the vacuum duct to enhance the ion effect. The oscillation patterns were recorded by the beam position monitor system which is capable of storing the transverse position of every bunch up to 1600 turns. The spectra of the bunch oscillations were also measured by a spectrum analyzer. This paper describes the results of the experiment and also discusses the possible explanation of them in terms of the FBII.

Development of a 56 mm aperture superconducting dipole model magnet for LHC
A 56 mm single aperture superconducting dipole model magnet, which is one of the frameworks of the LHC collaboration between KEK and CERN, has been developed. A central field of 8.65 T is provided at a load line ratio of 90% with a 5 block coil wound with NbTi superconducting cables. The magnet has a straight section of 0.8 m and a total length of 1.2 m. The distinctive features of the magnet are a magnetically symmetrical configuration being applicable to the twin aperture magnet and mechanical consideration sharing the magnetic forces with a high manganese steel collar and a horizontally split iron yoke. The magnet showed almost no training at 4.4 K. The first quench current at 1.8 K was 91% of the short sample I/sub c/ and the magnet reached a central magnetic field of 8.8 T. Finally it could be excited with the current of more than 99% of the short sample limit which corresponds to a central field of 9.63 T.

Test results of a single aperture 10 tesla dipole model magnet for the Large Hadron Collider
A single aperture dipole magnet has been developed with a design magnetic field of 10 tesla by using Nb-Ti/Cu conductor to be operated at 1.8 K in pressurized super fluid helium, The magnet features double shell coil design by using high keystone Rutherford cable and compact non-magnetic steel collars to be adaptable in split/symmetric coil/collar design for twin aperture dipoles. A design central magnetic field of 10 tesla has been successfully achieved in excitation at 1.95 K in pressurized superfluid helium. Test results of the magnet with a summary of the design and fabrication are presented.

Polarization of recoil neutrons from single-pion photoproduction off protons in the resonance region
Abstract The polarization of the recoil neutrons from the reaction γ p→ π + n was measured at a c.m. angle of 105° for incident photon energies between 675 and 1125 MeV. A scattered π + meson and a recoil neutron were detected in coincidence with a magnetic spectrometer and a neutron polarimeter system using liquid hydrogen. Results are compared with recent phenomenological analyses and the other existing data measured by the double polarization measurement technique.

Resonant Excitation of Disk Oscillations in Deformed Disks. V. Effects of Dissipative Process
It is suggested that a set of positive- and negative-energy oscillations can be resonantly excited in the inner region of deformed (warped or eccentric) relativistic disks. In this paper we examine how a dissipative process affects this wave excitation. The results show that when the resonant condition in frequency is roughly satisfied, and thus the oscillations are excited, the introduction of a dissipative process works so as to decrease the growth rate of the oscillations. When the frequency difference between the two oscillations is larger than a certain amount that is required by the resonant condition, however, the oscillations are excited by introducing a dissipative process. This excitation by the dissipative process can be understood as a special example of a double-diffusive instability.

Field emission from carbon nanotubes in DC and pulsed mode
Abstract Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube (CNT) emitters were tested in a combined diode-RF electron gun. Field emission of the nanotubes was observed at 5–30 MV/m, using a 250 ns FWHM long pulse with a peak voltage of 80–470 kV. The field emission threshold is compatible with that found from previous DC testing. We have extracted from a continuous field emitter up to a nanoCoulomb of charge and measured an emittance of 4 mm mrad with a 2 pC electron beam. The total charge emission during RF operation, using the 1.5 GHz, 2 cell RF structure, was found dependent on its period. RF operation showed that back bombarding electrons with up to 5 MeV did not impair the emission stability of the CNTs.
