  • Abstract
    The CERN SPS receives beam from the CPS by the continuous transfer process. The paper outlines the role of a modulated fast bump in this process and describes the magnets and pulse generators which produce it. Particular attention is given to the high voltage staircase pulse generator which determines the degree of modulation of the bump. Operating experience since the start of SPS commissioning is reported.
