TL;DR: A pulsed beam shutter magnet is required to deflect a beam of separated high energy particles into a beam stop after a desired number of particles have reached the 12-ft bubble chamber at the ZGS as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A pulsed beam shutter magnet is required to deflect a beam of separated high energy particles into a beam stop after a desired number of particles have reached the 12-ft bubble chamber at the ZGS. The magnet has a core, wound from 2 mil grain-oriented steel, an aperture 15 cm × 15 cm, and a ?Bdl=1kGm. The pulse has a risetime of ?3 ?s and a flattop of 40 ?s. The above is achieved by discharging a high voltage capacitor bank into the magnet inductance, followed by a power-crowbar. The design of the magnet and the switching circuits is described and formulas for calculating the pulse shapes are given. Graphs of calculated flattops to 500 ?s are shown.

Abstract: Summary A pulsed beam shutter magnet is required to deflect a beam of separated high energy particles into a beam stop after a desired number of particles have reached the 12-ft bubble chamber at the ZGS. The magnet has a core, wound from 2 mil grain-oriented steel, an aperture 15 cm x 15 cm, and a ]Bdl= 1kGm. The pulse has a risetime of 53 ~5 and a flattop of 40 ps. The above is achieved by discharging a high voltage capacitor bank into the magnet inductance, followed by a power-crowbar. The design of the magnet and the switching circuits is described and formulas for calculating the pulse shapes are given. Graphs of calculated flattops to 500 I.LS are shown.
