Dans les accélérateurs de particules de type synchrotron tels que SOLEIL, le faisceau de particules doit répondre à des critères toujours plus exigeants afin d’améliorer les propriétés du rayonnement synchrotron émis. Le comportement du faisceau d’électrons dépend notamment des aimants multipolaires de l’anneau de stockage du synchrotron. Parmi eux, les quadrupôles, qui produisent une induction magnétique quadrupolaire, ont un rôle capital dans la focalisation des particules du faisceau. Certains défauts de fabrication peuvent introduire des décalages dans la position de leur axe magnétique et dans l’orientation transverse de l’induction magnétique, ce qui détériore la qualité de champ. Il est donc nécessaire de quantifier ces défauts et de les corriger. Pour cela, des mesures magnétiques sont mises en œuvre. Le premier chapitre de ce mémoire s’attache principalement à expliciter les tolérances imposées aux quadrupôles de l’anneau de stockage du synchrotron SOLEIL. Dans le second chapitre, les outils théoriques permettant de mettre en œuvre la méthode des bobines tournantes sont présentés. Une modélisation est proposée afin de prévoir les conséquences des défauts des bobines tournantes sur les harmoniques de l’induction magnétique. Une méthode de détection des défauts du banc de mesures est également présentée. Le troisième chapitre est dévolu aux résultats expérimentaux obtenus lors de la mesure des aimants multipolaires (quadrupôles) de l’anneau de stockage de SOLEIL. Dans un dernier chapitre, l’alignement basé sur le faisceau (BBA) des quadrupôles et des sextupôles dans l’anneau de stockage est abordé. Cette étape est indispensable car elle permet de connaître la position du faisceau par rapport à son orbite théorique qui peut être définie comme étant l’axe magnétique des quadrupôles ou l’axe magnétique des sextupôles. Une méthode de BBA est ici validée dans le cas des quadrupôles et une autre est proposée dans le cas des sextupôles / In particle accelerators, more particularly in synchrotrons like SOLEIL, the particle beam is submitted to very strict constraints in order to improve the synchrotron radiation properties. The behaviour of the electron beam depends on the magnetic field distribution along the machine, mainly produced by the multipolar magnets of the storage ring (SR). Among them, the SOLEIL quadrupoles makes the electron beam very sensitive to their magnetic field errors due to some manufacturing defects. In that context, two main parameters are very important concerning the quadrupoles: the magnetic axis location and the magnetic field orientation in the transverse plane. These quantities are to be quantified and corrected by means of magnetic measurements. The first part of this thesis is mainly devoted to the presentation of the quadrupole constraint origin. In that context, the accelerator history and a brief review of the existing magnetic measurement method are presented. In the second chapter, theoretical tools regarding rotating coils are detailed. A model is proposed to simulate the effects of rotating coil defects on the magnetic measurements. Then, to quantify these defects, a method is detailed in order to take them into account during the measurements. A third chapter is devoted to the magnetic measurement bench set up and to the experimental results of the SR multipolar magnet measurements. Finally, the last chapter deals with the beam-based alignment (BBA) of the SR multipoles. A method is validated for quadrupoles and an innovative BBA method is proposed in the case of sextupoles

The future International Linear Collider (ILC) and Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) are intended for precision measurements of phenomena discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and also for the discovery of new physics. In order to offer optimal conditions for such experiments, the new colliders must produce very-high-luminosity collisions at energies in the TeV regime.

Las exigentes tolerancias de alineación en los componentes de los futuros colisionadores lineales de partículas requieren el desarrollo de nuevas técnicas de alineación más precisas que las existentes. Este es el caso del Colisionador Lineal Compacto (Compact Linear Collider, CLIC), cuyos objetivos altamente restrictivos de alineamiento alcanzan los 10 um. Para poder lograr el máximo rendimiento del acelerador, es necesario que el posicionamiento de las estructuras que aceleran las partículas y de los campos que las guían cumplan las tolerancias de alineación para dirigir el haz a lo largo de la trayectoria diseñada. Dicho procedimiento consiste en relacionar la posición de los ejes de referencia de cada componente con respecto a objetos externos, o fiduciales, lo cual resulta muy tedioso y económicamente costoso. Los errores sistemáticos y aleatorios se van acumulando en cada paso del proceso y, en consecuencia, la precisión final de alineamiento es todo un desafío. En este contexto, nace el proyecto PACMAN (Particle Accelerator Components Metrology and Alignment to the Nanometre scale), subvencionado por la Unión Europea en el programa FP7 de financiación para la investigación e innovación. El objetivo principal de PACMAN es investigar, desarrollar e implementar una solución integrada alternativa que incorpore todos los pasos de alineación en una misma ubicación, con el objetivo de mejorar la precisión de alineación de los componentes de los aceleradores, en concreto: las estructuras aceleradoras, los cuadrupolos y los monitores de posición de haz. La viabilidad de las soluciones desarrolladas y la precisión de alineamiento alcanzada deben de demostrarse en un banco de pruebas utilizando componentes de CLIC. La estrategia de PACMAN para alcanzar el objetivo técnico se divide en tres pasos. El primero consiste en la fiducialización de los componentes y sus soportes. El segundo paso es el ensamblaje de los componentes en dos tipos de soporte, uno compuesto por un monitor de posición de haz y un cuadrupolo, y otro con cuatro estructuras aceleradoras, tomando como referencia su centro electromagnético. Finalmente, ambos soportes se transportan al túnel para su alineación final utilizando técnicas de hilos tensados. En esta tesis doctoral, se describe el desarrollo de una nueva técnica no destructiva para localizar los ejes electromagnéticos de estructuras aceleradoras y su validación experimental. Para ello, se ha utilizado una estructura aceleradora de CLIC conocida como TD24. Debido a la complejidad mecánica de la TD24, su difícil acceso y su diámetro medio de iris de 5.5 mm, se desarrolla una nueva técnica denominada en esta tesis como 'el método perturbativo' y se realiza una propuesta experimental de validación. El estudio de viabilidad de este método, cumpliendo con los requisitos impuestos de precisión en la medida de 10 um, ha sido realizado con una campaña extensa de simulaciones de campos electromagnéticos en tres dimensiones utilizando la herramienta de software conocida como HFSS. Los resultados de simulación han permitido el desarrollo de un algoritmo muy completo de medidas y han proporcionado las especificaciones técnicas para el diseño conceptual de un banco de pruebas para la medida de los ejes electromagnéticos de la TD24. El preciso ensamblaje del banco de pruebas y sus correspondientes calibraciones, la incorporación de nuevos tratamientos de las medidas en el algoritmo final y la caracterización de fuentes de error en la medida, favorecieron la localización del centro electromagnético en la TD24 con una precisión menor a 1 um con un error estimado menor que 8.5 um, cumplimiendo con los objetivos de precisión establecidos. / In the next generation of linear particle accelerators, challenging alignment tolerances are required in the positioning of the components focusing, accelerating and detecting the beam over the accelerator length in order to achieve the maximum machine performance. In the case of the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), accelerating structures, beam position monitors and quadrupole magnets need to be aligned in their support with respect to their reference axes with an accuracy of 10 um. To reach such objective, the PACMAN (Particle Accelerator Components Metrology and Alignment to the Nanometer Scale) project strives for the improvement of the current alignment accuracy by developing new methods and tools, whose feasibility should be validated using the major CLIC components. This Ph.D. thesis concerns the investigation, development and implementation of a new non-destructive intracavity technique, referenced here as 'the perturbative method', to determine the electromagnetic axes of accelerating structures by means of a stretched wire, acting as a reference of alignment. Of particular importance is the experimental validation of the method through the 5.5 mm iris-mean aperture CLIC prototype known as TD24, with complex mechanical features and difficult accessibility, in a dedicated test bench. In the first chapter of this thesis, the alignment techniques in particle accelerators and the novel proposals to be implemented in the future linear colliders are introduced, and a detailed description of the PACMAN project is provided. The feasibility study of the method, carried out with extensive electromagnetic fields simulations, is described in chapter 2, giving as a result, the knowledge of the theoretical accuracy expected in the measurement of the electromagnetic axes and facilitating the development of a measurement algorithm. The conceptual design, manufacturing and calibration of the automated experimental set-up, integrating the solution developed to measure the electromagnetic axes of the TD24, are covered in chapter 3. The future lines of research and developments of the perturbative method are also explored. In chapter 4, the most significant results obtained from an extensive experimental work are presented, analysed and compared with simulations. The proof-of-principle is completed, the measurement algorithm is optimised and the electromagnetic centre is measured in the TD24 with a precision less than 1 um and an estimated error less than 8.5 um. Finally, in chapter 5, the developments undertaken along this research work are summarised, the innovative achievements accomplished within the PACMAN project are listed and its impact is analysed. / En la generació pròxima d'acceleradors de partícules lineals, desafiant toleràncies d'alineament és requerit en el posicionament dels components que enfoquen, accelerant i detectant la biga sobre la longitud d'accelerador per tal d'aconseguir l'actuació de màquina màxima. En el cas del Colisionador Compacte Lineal (CLIC), accelerant estructures, monitors de posició de fes i imants necessiten ser alineats en el seu suport amb respectar a les seves destrals de referència amb una precisió de 10 um.
