| Abstract |
Linac-4 is CERN’s new H⁻ Linac, which will replace the aging Linac-2 proton machine. Linac-4 is being built and commissioned in stages. While the machine is permanently equipped with the standard beam instrumentation necessary to ensure smooth operation, three dedicated measurement benches have also been designed to commission the source and LEBT at 45 keV, the MEBT and its chopper at 3 MeV as well as the first DTL tank at 12 MeV and finally the full DTL at 50 MeV and CCDTL at 100 MeV. The beam after the PIMS structures at the Linac’s full energy of 160 MeV will be sent to a beam dump and commissioned with permanently installed instruments. Installation and commissioning of the machine up to the CCDTL is now complete. This contribution will present the results from the various commissioning stages, showing the performance of the various diagnostic devices used and comparing the data obtained to simulations.
