论文摘要
CERN固定目标实验区域由超过8 km的光束线组成,其用于定义和监视光束参数的800个设备。每年,每年有140多个用户都会在这些领域进行实验,需要控制和访问这些设备的数据。因此,允许此允许的软件必须是简单且健壮的,并且能够控制和读取所有类型的梁设备。该贡献描述了梁线控制系统,塞萨尔及其演变的功能。这包括在实验区域中工作的光束生理学家,操作员和设备专家可以使用的所有功能。它还强调了该软件向实验用户提供的灵活性以控制其光束线,从而使他们能够以非常简单且独立的方式进行管理。这项贡献还涵盖了为Cesar提供MAD-X支持的持续工作,以实现一种更简单的集成光束光学元件的方法。还提供了实验区域正在进行的软件迁移的概述。
The CERN fixed target experimental areas are composed of more than 8 km of beam lines with around 800 devices used to define and monitor the beam parameters. Each year more than 140 groups of users come to perform experiments in these areas, with a need to control and access the data from these devices. The software to allow this therefore has to be simple and robust, and be able to control and read out all types of beam devices. This contribution describes the functionality of the beam line control system, CESAR, and its evolution. This includes all the features that can be used by the beam line physicists, operators, and device experts that work in the experimental areas. It also underlines the flexibility that the software provides to the experimental users for control of their beam line, allowing them to manage this in a very easy and independent way. This contribution also covers the on-going work of providing MAD-X support to CESAR to achieve an easier way of integrating beam optics. An overview of the on-going software migration of the Experimental Areas is also given.
