Abbreviations and namig schemes

(return)

1. MAPS - Makro-Pulse Selector
2. TRI - transport and installation group (former Grossmontage)

Beam line elements are named in the following way (based on example):

• G-HAD-DL-2-O

in above:

1. G- stands for GSI element (as opposed to FAIR elements)
2. HAD start for sector of HEST beamline; possible sectors are (total 30): TE1, TE2, TE3, TE4, TE5, TS1, TS2, TS3, TS4, TS5, TS6, TS7, TH1, TH2, TH3, TH4, TT1, TV1, TV2, HAD, HFS, HHD, HHT, HTT, HTA, HTB, HTC, HTD, HTP, HTM and TP1. Sectors typically extend from one dipole to another, sometimes there is only one dipole in a sector.
3. DL stands for Beam Loss Detector; possible element types are: MU (dipole), QD (quadrupole in dublet configuration), QT (quadrupole in triplet configuration), KX/KY (corrector magnets), DK (chamber with diagnostics), DI (beam current detector eg. particle counter, SEM etc), DF (fluorescent screen), DG (grid for profile measurement), DT (beam current transformer, trafo), DP (phasensonde - beam position monitor), ET (target), EK (experimental vacuum chamber, for instance for target), VV (vacuum gate/ventil), etc (list not exhaustive).
4. 2 stands for a position of the device in a sector, for instance GHADDL2 means second BLM in sector HAD
5. O stands for oben (upper) - meaning of this last letter is variable, some explanations:
   • for DI (beam current detector) the last letter stands for detector type: S - SEM, I - Ionization Chamber, P - plastic scintillator
   • for DL (eam loss detectors) the last letter stands for the detecrot position: O - oben (up), U - untern (down), L - links (left)
