Abstract

The space charge effect has an impact on emittance measurement of low energy H- ion beam injected into the SNS RFQ. This paper presents numerical investigations of the space charge effect of the beam on transverse emittance measurement using an Allison style scanner attached to the front-end test stand at SNS. The investigations are based on mathematical modelling the emittance measurement by the scanner taking into account space charge of the beam. We present a method of emittance data analysis that includes the modelling and allows more accurate measurements of the emittance.
