Abstract

The beam position appears in the transverse Schottky signal spectra of coasting beams at revolution frequency and its harmonics. In this contribution, we utilize this signal for beam position monitoring using regular shoe-box monitors at heavy ion synchrotron GSI SIS-18. Position resolution below 1 mm at 1 kHz rate for 10 mA current was obtained. These results demonstrate the feasibility of non-destructive position monitoring of unbunched beams in synchrotrons and storage rings using capacitive pick-up data with appropriate signal processing.
