The new lattice enables a two-order-of-magnitude reduction in horizontal beam emittance and a factor of two increase in beam current. The result is an electron beam of very high energy- and power-densities. Initial predictions suggest virtually any material struck by the undiluted electron beam will be damaged. Two experimental beam abort studies have been conducted on collimator test pieces in the present APS SR to inform the design of a fully-functional machine protection system for APS 4GSR operations at 200 mA. A comprehensive suite of diagnostics were employed during the studies The diagnostics used in these experiments are not new, but employed in different ways to obtain unique data sets. With these data sets now in hand, we are developing new numerical tools to guide collimator design.

Ions are produced in an accelerator when the beam ionizes residual gas inside the vacuum chamber. If the beam is negatively charged, ions can become trapped in the beam’s potential, and their density will increase over time. Trapped ions can cause a variety of undesirable effects, including instability and emittance growth. Because of the challenging emittance and stability requirements of the APS-Upgrade storage ring, ion trapping is a serious concern. To study this effect at the present APS, a gas injection system was installed. A controlled pressure bump of Nitrogen gas was created over a 6m straight section, and the resulting ion instability was studied using several different detectors. Measurements were taken using a pinhole camera, spectrum analyzer, bunch-by-bunch feedback system, and a gas bremsstrahlung detector. Studies were done under a wide variety of beam conditions, and at different pressure bump amplitudes. In this paper we report on the results of some of these measurements, and discuss the implications for present and future electron storage rings.
