Description
Summary:This thesis concerns the reconstruction of a new set of extraction parameters from the Proton Synchrotron (PS) at CERN. The underlying data was taken from measurement campaigns held in 2012 and 2013, aquired using beam position monitors and screens in the TT2-TT10 line and in the SPS. The tools for reconstructing the dispersive and betatronic parameters are explained, and the difference in extraction parameters using two separate bump settings in the PS is investigated. Earlier findings are also used for comparison.
