Operational performance of wire scanner monitor in J-PARC LINAC

A wire scanner monitor (WSM) is one of essential measurement devices for beam commissioning of current accelerators. J-PARC Linac also employs a number of WSMs for transverse beam profile. The transverse matching is performed based on the measured beam width. In addition, we have tried to measure halo component with the BSMs. In this paper, we present the experimental results obtained in a beam study to characterize the operational performance of the WSM.
