Abstract

In particle accelerators, full knowledge of the six-dimensional (6D) beam phase space is crucial but difficult to obtain with conventional beam diagnostics. We develop a two-stage convolutional neural network (CNN) that reconstructs the 6D phase space from only sixteen transverse $x-y$ screen images taken at a place with dispersion by different phase space rotation angles. The model is trained with simulation data of KEK-Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) injector with ASTRA. The real-space images in the chicane orbit at the KEK-ATF injector were acquired by varying the RF phase of the RF electron gun and the solenoid magnetic field. From these data, we reconstructed the 6D phase space distribution at the cathode surface and visualized it as 15 two-dimensional images covering all pairwise coordinate combinations. The time width and spatial spread of the electron beam at the cathode showed values consistent with the measured values at KEK-ATF. Compared to existing 6D beam imaging measurement techniques such as tomography, it significantly reduces measurement time and required computational resources, enabling the provision of a more practical 6D phase space measurement method.
