Abstract:
The alignment of particle accelerators’ components to the micrometric level requires a well-known network of reference points. The survey of this control network is primarily done with laser trackers, total stations and optical levels. In this paper we investigate some network parameters, such as distance between points, their disposition along the machine’s area and the number of surveys in order to reduce the point cloud uncertainties to a targeted magnitude.
