  Many synchrotron radiation facilities are studying lattice upgrades in order to lower the natural emittance and hence increase the radiation brightness. At Diamond we are pursuing a novel alternative, not targeting the minimum possible emittance but instead introducing additional insertion device (ID) straights and hence increasing the capacity of the facility, while still possibly achieving a more limited reduction in emittance. The new scheme involves converting some of the DBA lattice cells into a double-DBA or DDBA, with a new ID straight between the two achromats. This then allows existing or future bending magnet ports (which in Diamond are taken from near the entrance to the second dipole of the DBA lattice) to be served by a much more powerful insertion device. We present here the design concept and preliminary lattice design, and discuss the challenging magnet, vacuum and engineering issues.

  Understanding the heat load from an electron beam is still an open issue for the cryogenic design of superconducting insertion devices. COLDDIAG, a cold vacuum chamber for diagnostics was designed and built specially for this purpose. With the equipped instrumentation, which covers temperature sensors, pressure gauges, mass spectrometers as well as retarding field analyzers it is possible to measure the beam heat load, total pressure, and gas content as well as the net flux and energy of particles hitting the chamber walls. Following a failure after its first installation in November 2011, COLDDIAG was subsequently reinstalled in the Diamond storage ring in August 2012. We report on the preliminary results that have been obtained since then.
