  Wideband low-output-impedance RF system for the second harmonic cavity in the ISIS synchrotron has been developed by the collaboration between Argonne National Laboratory, US, KEK, Japan and Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK. Low output impedance is realized by the feedback from plate output to grid input of the final triode amplifier, resulting in less than 30 ohms over the frequency range of 2.7 - 6.2 MHz which is required for the second harmonic cavity. The vacuum tubes in the driver and final stages are both operated in class A, and a grid bias switching system is used on each tube to avoid unnecessary plate dissipations during a non-acceleration cycle. High power test was performed with a ferrite-loaded second harmonic cavity, where the bias current was swept at 50 Hz repetition rate. The maximum voltage of 12kV peak per accelerating gap was obtained stably at earlier period of an acceleration cycle. A beam test with this system is planned at the ISIS synchrotron in order to investigate how the low impedance system works under heavy beam loading conditions, and is capable of mitigating the space charge detuning at the RF trapping stage.

  We have succeeded in providing stable and three-times more brilliant x-ray to users by combining top-up operation with low emittance optics. The optics with the low emittance of 3nmrad was first applied to the user operation in November 2002. Although the low emittance provided the brilliant x-ray, the extremely short beam lifetime much disturbed the precise experiments. Moreover, the aborted electron beam damaged the part of vacuum chamber at the beam injection section. The low emittance operation was thus suspended in October 2003. By improving design of the vacuum chamber and introducing the top-up injection, the problems for the stable operation were resolved, and then the top-up operation with the low emittance optics has been first achieved at SPring-8. This paper illustrates how we achieved this sophisticated operation by explaining the following three essential investigations: (1) reduction of natural emittance for a storage ring with four magnet-free long straight sections, (2) protection of vacuum chamber from aborted electron beam, and (3) consistency to the top-up operation. The obtained performance is also described in the paper.
