[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be particularly noted that the axial direction of the present invention refers to the direction parallel to the beam tube, and the radial direction refers to the direction perpendicular to the axial direction.

[0028] See also Figure 1-9The present invention provides the following technical solutions: a beam tube structure capable of reducing the energy consumption of particle extraction, the beam tube comprising a beryllium tube and a cooling circuit amplifying cavity 3, a short aluminum tube 4 and an epitaxial tube 15 which are radially symmetrically and sequentially installed along the left and right ends of the beryllium tube, respectively, and the radial cross section of the epitaxial tube 15 is in a gradually changing runway shape; the installation sequence of the beam tube is that the left and right ends of the beryllium tube are respectively installed with the cooling circuit amplifying cavity 3, the other ends of the two cooling circuit amplifying cavities 3 are respectively installed with the short aluminum tubes 4, and the other ends of the two short aluminum tubes 4 are respectively installed with the epitaxial tubes 15.

[0029] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the beam tube is assembled from a central beryllium tube and two epitaxial aluminum tubes by arranging an end flange 5, a beryllium sheet 9, a left half outer aluminum tube 10, a right half outer aluminum tube 11 and an inner aluminum tube 12. The two epitaxial aluminum tubes are fixed at both ends of the central beryllium tube, wherein the central beryllium tube is composed of an inner beryllium tube 1, an outer beryllium tube 2, two cooling circuit amplification chambers 3 and two short aluminum tubes 4. The medium in the cooling circuit of the cooling circuit amplification chamber 3 in this embodiment can be oil, water or other liquid cooling media, and the epitaxial aluminum tube is composed of an end flange 5, BPM6, an outer aluminum tube flange 8, a beryllium sheet 9, a left half outer aluminum tube 10, a right half outer aluminum tube 11 and an inner aluminum tube 12. The epitaxial aluminum tube is a gradually changing runway-type structure. Particles only need to pass through the thickness of a single-layer aluminum tube to reach the LumiCal detector, and the amount of material passing through is smaller. The inner aluminum tube 12 has a smaller amount of material and a higher precision in physical detection. Beryllium sheets 9 are embedded in the upper and lower surfaces of the inner aluminum tube 12. The density of beryllium is lower than that of aluminum, and the amount of material is smaller. Therefore, the detection precision of particles passing through the beryllium sheets 9 is also higher. The racetrack-type pipeline can reduce the aperture in the vertical direction, which can reduce the cavity structure in the vertical direction, thereby reducing high-order mode heat. Therefore, after the positrons and electrons collide in the beam tube, they escape from the inner aluminum tube 12 or the beryllium sheets 9. Since the amount of material to be passed through is small, the particles can more easily pass through and reach the LumiCal detector fixed on the upper side of the inner aluminum tube 12, thereby meeting the physical requirements. Moreover, due to the structure, the particles only need to pass through one layer of aluminum tube or beryllium sheet 9 to reach the LumiCal detector. Compared with the previous need to pass through two layers of aluminum tubes and a layer of water flow, the amount of material passed through is smaller, and the precision of physical detection is also more accurate.

[0030] Specifically, the epitaxial tube 15 includes an inner aluminum tube 12 and an outer aluminum tube, one end of the inner aluminum tube 12 is fixedly connected to an end flange 5, the outer surface of the end flange 5 is provided with a mounting hole 7, and a BPM 6 is installed inside the mounting hole 7. The Chinese name of BPM: Beam Position monitoring. The role of BPM in the technical solution of this application is to feedback signals and control the running track of the beam in the vacuum tube. More specifically, BPM can provide real-time feedback on the signal, and then control the running track of the beam in the vacuum tube in real time according to the feedback signal.

[0031] In this embodiment: the installation of BPM6 is facilitated by the provision of the installation hole 7.

[0032] Specifically, a sheet groove 13 is provided inside the inner aluminum tube 12 , and a beryllium sheet 9 is inlaid and installed on the inner wall of the sheet groove 13 .

[0033] In this embodiment: the installation position of BPM6 is limited by the setting of the installation hole 7.

[0034] Specifically, the outer aluminum tube includes a right half outer aluminum tube 11 and a left half outer aluminum tube 10, which are axially mounted on both sides of the outer surface of the inner aluminum tube 12 to form a semi-enclosed structure.

[0035] In this embodiment: by setting the mounting hole 7, the BPM6 is installed in a shape that fits the BPM6.

[0036] Specifically, there are two beryllium tubes, which are symmetrically installed at both ends of the cooling circuit amplification chamber 3 . The beryllium tubes include an inner beryllium tube 1 and an outer beryllium tube 2 . The inner beryllium tube 1 is installed in the outer beryllium tube 2 as a sleeve structure.

[0037] In this embodiment: the right half outer aluminum tube 11 and one end of the left half outer aluminum tube 10 are fixed by setting the outer aluminum tube flange 8.

[0038] Specifically, the inner wall of the end flange 5 is fixedly connected with the outer aluminum tube flange 8 ;

[0039] In this embodiment, the beryllium sheet 9 is conveniently fixed by providing the sheet groove 13 .

[0040] Specifically, the number of sheet slots 13 opened inside each inner aluminum tube 12 is two;

[0041] In this embodiment, the outer aluminum tube groove 14 is provided to facilitate fixing the right half outer aluminum tube 11 and the left half outer aluminum tube 10 .

[0042] Specifically, the installation positions of the two beryllium sheets 9 on the same inner aluminum tube 12 are symmetrical to each other.

[0043] In this embodiment, the cooling circuit amplifying cavity 3 and the inner aluminum tube 12 are connected together by providing a short aluminum tube 4 .

[0044] Specifically, the outer surface of each inner aluminum tube 12 is provided with an outer aluminum tube groove 14 , and the number of the outer aluminum tube grooves 14 on each inner aluminum tube 12 is four.

[0045] In this embodiment, the cooling circuit amplifying cavity 3 is provided to facilitate fixing of the outer beryllium tube 2 and the inner beryllium tube 1 .

[0046] The working principle and use process of the present invention: When the beam tube structure that can reduce the energy consumption of particle extraction is in use, the positive and negative electrons collide in the beam tube and then escape from the inner aluminum tube 12 or the beryllium sheet 9. Since the amount of material to be passed through is small, the particles can more easily pass through and reach the LumiCal detector fixed on the upper side of the inner aluminum tube 12, thereby achieving the physical requirements. Moreover, since the particles of this structure only need to pass through one layer of aluminum tube or beryllium sheet 9 to reach the LumiCal detector, compared with the previous need to pass through two layers of aluminum tubes and a layer of water flow, the amount of material passed through is less, and the accuracy of physical detection is also more accurate.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
