Surveys in preparation for the commissioning of the TRIUMF magnet Gibb, Robert A.

Abstract

This thesis was concerned with work in preparation for the commissioning of the TRIUMF cyclotron magnet. The experiments were centred around a 1/10 scale model of the cyclotron magnet. Computer calculation and model measurements were made of a model combination magnet. Extraction fields of the cyclotron were measured and the stripping foil locus determined. The interaction of the cyclotron magnet and the combination magnet was determined. A 1/10 scale model Triple Hall Probe was constructed and precisely calibrated. Its performance was tested and surveys made in the model. Finally the characteristics of the trim coils to be used in the cyclotron were measured.
