FONT5 December 2009 feedback results
• During the final shift we ran K1-to-P2 position feedback
• 151.2ns bunch spacing, quadrupoles on
• 5 gain settings with charge normalisation (2000 – 2400)
• 8 ZV6X settings at each gain to generate t-shirt data (~250 micron range in P2)
• Some gain settings taken with interleaved feedback on/off
• To save time, some settings were only FB on with occasional FB off runs taken
• Additionally, throughout:
• Calibration constant of 0.0022 used
• Low bunch charge cut by threshold
• Fliers removed at 3 sigma
• All averages over ~50 pulses per point

Baseline subtraction effects
• The firmware does NOT subtract baseline when forming feedback signal
• The true position y0 is:
• While feedback sees:
• With calibration constant of 0.0022:
Σ0 ~ 300
∆b ~Σb ~ 30
Charge - dependent

Gain setting
• Gain set to converge on yFB = 0
• Decided in FONT meeting to add GUI switch to disable base subtraction in plots
• Previous shift data suggested gain ~2200 to give yFB = 0
• In real terms, feedback converges on -∆b / (Σ0 + Σb) [few micron variation]
• Dotted line shows the average position to which the feedback should converge
• To avoid confusion, all following plots are analysed with baseline subtraction, i.e. they correspond the true position
Analysed with baseline subtraction
Analysed without baseline subtraction

T-shirt plots
• Following 8 slides show t-shirt plots for gain -2100
• Gain -2100 gave best results
• Each point averaged over ~50 pulses
• Error bars show the RMS jitter
• Data are interleaved feedback on/off

Gain comparison
• Overlaid T-shirt plots
• Data with feedback on at each corrector setting are overlaid on the next 5 slides
• One plot for each gain setting
• Staircase plots
• The final 5 slides show the equivalent staircase plots in P2
