Superconducting technology offers the possibility of building short-period undulators for synchrotron light sources. Such undulators will deliver higher fluxes at higher photon energies to the light source user community. The Advanced Photon Source (APS) team is building the first superconducting planar undulator to be installed in the APS storage ring. The current status of the project is presented in this paper.

  PLS-II is an upgraded third generation synchrotron which includes many insertion devices with improved beam properties. Top-up operation is short time-interval injection to make roughly constant current and is essential to provide high intensity beam. When the electrons are injected to synchrotron, the stored beam is disturbed by small error of the injection system and the beam quality at the beamline can be decreased. We present this injection transient motion at PLS-II.

  A photocathode RF-gun for the X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) has been fabricated and tested at PAL. This RF-gun is based on a 1.6-cell cavity with dual-feed waveguide ports and two pumping ports. The RF gun was designed by PAL and POSTECH. The RF-gun has been successfully tested with a cathode electric field gradient up to 126MV/m at a repetition rate of 30 Hz. This paper reports the recent results on the beam test of the RF-gun with high power RF at the gun test facility. We present and discuss the measurements of the basic beam parameters such as charge, energy, energy spread, and transverse emittance.

  This paper reports on the recent status of the Pohang Light Source (PLS)-II linac at Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). From 2009, the linac upgrade has been started increasing its energy from 2.5 GeV to 3 GeV aiming stable top-up mode operation. First, we show that the stability status of the two different types of modulators to meet the top-up condition which requires very stable modulator system in linac. Next, we introduce upgrade status those differ from their PLS (2.5 GeV) such as installation of the dual vacuum systems for the electron gun to replace it immediately, adding important diagnostic tools, and reutilization of the beam analysis system just after pre-injector. Finally we present the electron beam parameters measured by those diagnostic system.

  The Pohang Light Source (PLS) has operated for 14 years successfully. To meet the request of the increasing user community, the PLS-II that is the upgrade project of PLS has been completed. Main goals of the PLS-II are to increase beam energy to 3 GeV, to increase number of insertion devices by the factor of two (20 IDs), to increase beam current to 400 mA and to reduce beam emittance below 10 nm with existing PLS tunnel and injection system. The PLS-II had been commissioned over the six months. During commissioning, we achieved 14 insertion devices operation and top-up operation with 100 mA beam current and 5.8 nm beam emittance. In this presentation, we report the experimental results from the PLS-II commissioning.

  PLS linac has been upgraded in energy from 2.5 to 3.0 GeV. A klystron supplies RF power of 80 MW four acceleration structures through a SLED. But our machine is not enough RF power to get 3 GeV beam energy. So we have changed the RF scheme in four modules as a klystron supplies RF power of 80 MW two accelerating structures through a SLED. There were several problems during the RF conditioning and beam operation. So we will describe the conditioning results and the current status in this paper.

  In PAL, We are constructing a 10GeV PxFEL project. The output power of the klystron is 80 MW at the pulse width of 4 ㎲ and the repetition rate of 120 Hz. In high power operation, it is important to decrease the rf electric field to protect rf break-down in high power rf components. To obtain the maximum beam, we must reduce the phase difference between waveguide branches including accelerating structure and minimize the environment influences. This paper describes the waveguide system and high power rf components for the PxFEL.

The Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) had started the upgrade project (called PLS-II) of the Pohang Light Source (PLS) from 2009 for increasing its energy from 2.5 GeV to 3 GeV and changing the operation mode from fill-up to top-up mode. Top-up mode operation requires high energy stability of the linac beam and machine reliability in the linac modulator systems. For providing the additional 0.5 GeV energy from the 2.5 GeV PLS linac, we added four units of the modulator system. We have two different types of the pulse modulator system for using existing pulse modulators, thyristor control type, in the upgrade project (PLS-II). The two types are thyristor control type and inverter power type. In the thyristor control type, a de-Qing system controls the modulator pulse forming network (PFN) charging voltage stability, and in the inverter power supply type, CCPS provides highly stable charging voltage to the modulator. We will present development and management of the pulse modulator system for obtaining machine reliability and stability from 3.0 GeV linac.

We design a C-band standing-wave accelerating structure for an X-ray source of the imaging and medical applications. It is capable of producing 6-MeV, 100-mA pulsed electron beams which is focused by less than 1.5 mm without external magnets. As an RF source, we use peak 1.5-MW magnetron with duty factor of 0.08%. The accelerating structure is a bi-periodic and on-axis-coupled structure with a built-in bunching section, which consists 3 bunching cells, 13 normal cells and a coupler cell. It operated with π/2-mode standing-waves. The bunching section is designed to enhance the RF phase focusing in order to achieve 1.2-mm beam spot size. Each cavity is designed with the MWS code to maximize the effective shunt impedance within 3.5% inter-cell coupling. In this paper, we present design details of RF cavities and the beam dynamics simulation by the PARMELA code.

There are a large number of variables and objectives in design of XFEL linac lattices. Recently, most of accelerator physics field, are applying the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) for these kinds of problems. MOGA was applied to the PAL XFEL linac lattice design. Longitudinal position of all components was fixed before applying MOGA. RF parameters of RF cavities and bending angles of bunch compressors are selected as variables. Various beam parameters computed by ELEGANT were used as objectives. By using MOGA, new linac lattice designs with 2 and 3 bunch compressors was generated and their beam properties are presented in this paper.

In particle accelerators, bellows are commonly used to connect beamline components. Such bellows are traditionally shielded to lower the beam impedance. Excessive beam impedance can cause overheating in the bellows, especially in high beam current operation. For an SRF-based accelerator, the bellows must also be particulate free. Many designs of shielded bellows incorporate rf slides or fingers that prevent convolutions from being exposed to wakefields. Unfortunately these mechanical structures tend to generate particulates that, if left in the SRF accelerator, can migrate into superconducting cavities, the accelerator's critical components. In this paper, we describe a prototype unshielded bellows that has low beam impedance and no risk of particulate generation.
