  Diagnostic refurbishments are ongoing in the booster synchrotron in preparation for the near future Variable pulse Storage Ring (VSR) project at BESSY II. Essential orbit measurements have been re-installed after almost two decades of latency. This diagnostic will help assess the effectiveness of the possible upgrade scenarios such as quasi-low-alpha operation and extraction optimization. The contribution presents the preliminary results of the continual global upgrade of the injector systems.

The upgrade of the BESSY II storage ring to BESSY VSR* demands additional beam diagnostics for machine commissioning and development. Especially bunch resolved measurements are needed. Currently, transverse beam size measurements are done with X-ray pinhole monitor systems, which cannot provide bunch resolved information. Alternative methods to measure the transverse beam size using synchrotron radiation in the visible spectrum are interferometric techniques, which could also be upgraded to bunch resolved systems. For that purpose a double slit interferometer has been constructed. Commissioning of the system has started and experimental results are discussed and compared with the existing pinhole system.

BESSY II features sophisticated filling patterns as well as manipulation and separation techniques of custom bunches to serve both timing and photon hungry experiments at the same time*. Recently, the low alpha operation mode, providing bunch lengths as short as 2 ps, was extended by pseudo single bunch options. A robust technique to excite one bunch with constant displacement and enlargement was implemented for pulse picking by resonant excitation (PPRE)** users. In addition, reliable scraping of an isolated bunch to provide zero current bunch length is opening new timing opportunities. The simultaneous usage of different photon characteristics: high intensity CSR, non-bursting CSR, short duration as well as operation mode specific X-rays impose new challenges. Sensitive tune measurements and feedback mechanisms had to be developed for all three dimensions. Negative alpha is in consideration to overcome the top up efficiency constraints.

WEPIK056 Compensation of Transient Beam Loading with Detuned Cavities at BESSY II 3056

    HZB, Berlin, Germany
 
  This paper presents operational experience and use cases of cavity operation in the synchrotron light source BESSY II, where an active or passive cavity is detuned by a small fraction of the harmonic number. If the detuning is an integer multiple of the fundamental RF harmonic, the distortion of the longitudinal phase space is periodic with the revolution, which allows for the compensation of fill pattern induced transients. Measurements at BESSY II are presented, where a fundamental cavity is detuned to decrease the effects of transient beam loading. Thus, reducing the phase transient and increasing the beam life time. Calculations depicting the application of this scheme for the future project BESSY VSR[*] are presented.

Beam storage close to a tune resonance (Qx = 1/3,1/4) can generate transverse resonance island buckets in the x,x' phase space providing a second stable island orbit winding around the standard orbit. The two orbits are well separated, with good life time and stability. Successful user experiments have been conducted at BESSY II and the Metrology Light Source (MLS) *,** with such an operation mode. We discuss the required beam optics setup, the TopUp injection process and present successful measurements taken at photon beamlines at BESSY II.

THPAB008 Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm Applied in Online Commissioning at the MLS and BESSY II 3700

  Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a population based optimization technique inspired by the social behaviour of bird flocking. This algorithm has been successfully used for beam dynamics simulation due to its excellent capability to deal with large-dimensional optimization problems. At the MLS and BESSY II PSO was first successfully applied to improve the lifetime by 20~30% within only 10 iterations respectively. Now the PSO has been implemented as a multifunctional online optimizer to improve the machine performance. This paper presents some results of online experiments.

  Due to the fact that the klystrons run out of production and due to the aging of the old cavities, a renewal of the RF system was necessary. Solid state based transmitters and HOM damped nc single cell cavities have been installed at the BESSY II storage ring. The parameters of the components, the installation phase and the results to the beam will be presented.
