  Once con­structed, the Eu­ro­pean Spal­la­tion Source (ESS) will be a 5MW pulsed neu­tron source based on a 2 GeV pro­ton linac de­liv­er­ing 2.86 ms long pulses at a 14 Hz rep­e­ti­tion rate. This paper fo­cuses on the beam in­stru­men­ta­tion per­for­mance dur­ing the re­cent linac beam com­mis­sion­ing up to drift tube linac (DTL) tank 4 with 74 MeV out­put en­ergy. In­stru­men­ta­tion and mea­sure­ment re­sults will be pre­sented for beam pa­ra­me­ters such as cur­rent, po­si­tion, en­ergy, emit­tance and beam loss.

  The ESS BCM sys­tem is not only used for beam mea­sure­ment but it also plays an im­por­tant role for ma­chine pro­tec­tion par­tic­u­larly in the nor­mal-con­duct­ing part of the linac. Dur­ing the pre­vi­ous beam com­mis­sion­ings to the MEBT and DTL1 FCs and be­fore the cav­i­ties were fully con­di­tioned, RF break­downs and other types of dis­charges in the cav­i­ties had a major im­pact on beam avail­abil­ity due to the Fast ma­chine pro­tec­tion func­tions of the BCM. Fol­low­ing an in­ves­ti­ga­tion on the root cause of the beam trips, the con­fig­u­ra­tion of the ma­chine pro­tec­tion func­tions was mod­i­fied to im­prove beam avail­abil­ity in the more re­cent beam com­mis­sion­ing to the DTL4 FC. In ad­di­tion to this, some op­ti­miza­tions were made in the BCM sys­tem to im­prove beam mea­sure­ment, and a few more func­tions were added based on new re­quire­ments. This paper re­ports on these im­prove­ments and the re­sults ob­tained dur­ing the beam com­mis­sion­ing through the DTL4.

  Sev­eral Non-in­va­sive Pro­file Mon­i­tors are being in-stalled along the ac­cel­er­a­tor to sup­port the com­mis­sion­ing, tun­ing and op­er­a­tion of the pow­er­ful pro­ton based ESS lin­ear ac­cel­er­a­tor. In the low en­ergy parts of the ESS linac (3.6 MeV to 90 MeV), the resid­ual gas pres­sure is high enough to mea­sure the trans­verse beam pro­file by using flu­o­res­cence in­duced by the beam on the gas mol­e­cules. How­ever, in the ESS linac sec­tions above 90 MeV, pro­tons are ac­cel­er­ated by su­per­con­duc­tive cav­i­ties work­ing at cryo­genic tem­per­a­tures and high vac­uum. There­fore, the sig­nal based on the flu­o­res­cence process is too weak, while ion­iza­tion can coun­ter­act this draw­back. We have pro­vided five IPM (Ion­iza­tion Pro­file Mon­i­tors) pairs for en­er­gies rang­ing from 100 to 600 MeV. The de­sign of such mon­i­tors is chal­leng­ing due to weak sig­nal (as a re­sult of high pro­ton en­ergy and low pres­sure <10-9 mbar), tight space con­straints in­side the vac­uum cham­ber, space charge ef­fect, ISO-5 clean­li­ness re­quire­ment, and elec­trode po­lar­iza­tion at ±15 kV. This pub­li­ca­tion will de­tail the de­vel­op­ment we fol­lowed to ful­fil the ESS re­quire­ments.
