Abstract
At a Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), dynamic magnetic field errors, such as magnetic field tracking errors and dynamic fringe field effects, can cause time-dependent tune shift during beam acceleration. If the tune shift is significant enough to pass through resonance lines, it can lead to emittance growth and beam losses. Correcting time-dependent tune shift during acceleration is crucial for a RCS. Modulating the exciting current and magnetic field of quadrupole magnets at a RCS, which are powered by resonant circuits, is challenging during the ramping process. Correcting time-dependent tune shift at a RCS poses a significant technical challenge. We have proposed a method for correcting time-dependent tune shift at the rapid cycling synchrotron of China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS), based on waveform compensation at the quadrupole magnets. This approach involves modulating the magnetic field variation process by injecting time harmonic exciting current into the quadrupole magnets. This method has been validated during the CSNS beam commissioning and has been applied at the RCS of CSNS to correct various dynamic magnetic field errors.
