Fast Luminosity Monitoring for the SuperKEKB Collider (LumiBelle2 Project)

International audienceLumiBelle2 is a fast luminosity monitoring system prepared for SuperKEKB*. It uses sCVD diamond detectors placed in both the electron and positron rings to measure the Bhabha scattering process at vanishing scattering angle. Two types of online luminosity signals are provided, a Train-Integrated-Luminosity at 1 kHz as input to the dithering feedback system used to maintain optimum overlap between the colliding beams in horizontal plane, and Bunch-Integrated-Luminosities at about 1 Hz to check for variations along the bunch trains. Individual beam sizes and offsets can also be determined from collision scanning. The design of LumiBelle2 will be described and its performance during the Phase-2 commissioning of SuperKEKB will be reported
