Early operating experience with the new Tevatron low- beta insertion

New low- beta insertions will be used in the Tevatron collider at both the B0 and D0 interaction regions. To reduce the beam-beam tune shift, electrostatic separators will be installed to separate the beams horizontally and vertically at all but the two interaction points. An insertion has been inst...

Description
Summary:New low- beta insertions will be used in the Tevatron collider at both the B0 and D0 interaction regions. To reduce the beam-beam tune shift, electrostatic separators will be installed to separate the beams horizontally and vertically at all but the two interaction points. An insertion has been installed at the B0 straight section and enough separators to create collisions at B0 only. The initial beam tests using these devices are described. The procedures for tuning of the insertion and separators are described. Also discussed is the procedure to change the lattice from the injection lattice to the 50-cm beta lattice used in high energy physics.< >
