Beam-based alignment of SCU 0 chamber using thermal sensors Net resistive wall heating increases when the beam is not centered in the chamber. This can be used to find the vertical center of the chamber. Radiation from the upstream bending magnet can potentially strike the cold chamber. BPMs at the dipole are used to steer the beam and minimize the temp. ** Beam steering in the dipole also shows a vertical chamber displacement, consistent with the ID beam steering.

First integral of the vertical field during a quench. 36 SCU R&D Review, Jan. 31, 2014
Impact of SCU 0 on beam operation First field integral measured with beam – Variation in first field integral was inferred from effort of nearby steering correctors. – Field integrals agree reasonably well with magnetic measurements in stand -alone tests. Effect of quench on beam – Beam motion is small, even without fast orbit feedback running, as in this example. – Quench does not cause loss of beam – Beam position limit detectors were not triggered. 37 SCU R&D Review, Jan. 31, 2014
Quenches Device has quenched during unintentional beam dumps. Procedures to mitigate these quenches are under investigation. Device is powered down prior to planned beam dumps. With the exception of beam dumps, the device quenched only twice in 8 months of user operations, operating above its 500 -A design current. Stored beam was not lost, and total SCU 0 downtime was < 1 hr. Quench event induced by sudden loss of 20 m. A of the stored beam Magnet temperatures were recovered quickly (2 -3 min).
