Abstract

The Beam Loss Monitors (BLM) are designed to measure the position and amount of beam loss in accelerators. In this article, we have studied the 3 GeV electron losses in the storage ring and secondary particles from the losses on the beam pipe. We have compared ionization chamber, NaI and Si radiation detectors as BLM and selected Si detector for further studies. We have calculated electron deflection angle due to magnetic field mismatches in dipole magnets, quadrupoles and sextupoles and assumed that electron beam is deflected and hit the beam pipe with the angle of 3 degrees with respect to the beam axis. The number and energy of photons and secondary particles on beam pipe and in Si detector are calculated by the MCNP code and reported in this paper.
