/ Sandberg, Hampus (Manchester U. ; CERN) ; Bertsche, William (Manchester U.) ; Bodart, Dominique (CERN) ; Dehning, Bernd (CERN) ; Gibson, Stephen (Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Levasseur, Swann (CERN) ; Satou, Kenichirou (J-PARC ; KEK, Tsukuba ; JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Schneider, Gerhard (CERN) ; Storey, James (CERN) ; Veness, Raymond (CERN)
The principle of non-destructive beam profile measurement with rest gas ionization electrons has remained largely unchanged since the technique was first proposed in the late 1960's. Ionization electrons (or ions) are transported by an electrostatic field onto an imaging detector, where the spatial distribution of detected electrons is a direct measure of the transverse beam profile.

Manchester (main)) ; Bodart, D (CERN) ; Dehning, B (CERN) ; Gibson, S (Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Levasseur, S (CERN ; Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Satou, K (KEK, Tsukuba) ; Schneider, G (CERN) ; Storey, J W (CERN) ; Veness, R (CERN)
A transverse beam gas ionization profile monitor is currently under development for the CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) to provide non-destructive continuous measurements during a beam cycle. The implementation is exploring a novel use of the Timepix3 hybrid pixel detector mounted inside the ultra-high vacuum of the accelerator beam pipe to provide direct detection of ionization electrons.

A novel rest gas ionisation profile monitor which aims to provide a continuous non-destructive bunch-by-bunch measurement of the transverse emittance is currently under development for the CERN Proton Synchrotron (CPS). Uniquely for this type of instrument the imaging detector that measures the position of the ionisation electrons consists of an array of pixelated silicon sensors which are read-out using Timepix3 readout chips.
