Scheme for quantitative description of longitudinal drifts in the Fermilab Linac and their correction

Sheldon Rego, Ralitsa Sharankova, Alexander Shemyakin

The Fermilab Linac accepts the 0.75 MeV H- ions from the front end and accelerates them to 400 MeV for injection into the Booster. Day-to-day drifts of the longitudinal trajectory…
