  The construction of a new 3 GeV synchrotron facility, Taiwan Photon Source, is ongoing. It is required to install stripline kickers to suppress instability generated by mismatch between injection kickers or imperfect installation of vacuum components all around. First, the design philosophy will be described for transverse stripline kickers. HFSS electromagnetic simulation software is used to optimize all structure parameters like electrode dimensions, electrode distance from vacuum chambers etc. to make transverse stripline kicker working more efficiently and effectively. All simulation results will be presented in this paper and all structure dimension choices will be discussed and the final prototype structure dimensions will be selected from the discussion.

  This paper describes the DC current transformers (DCCT), designed and fabricated for Taiwan Photon Source (TPS); including the mechanical structure, dissimilar material welding process for the DCCT chamber, electronically and vacuum performance testing. In the structure, a ceramic break disc is provided and jointed between to ends of the beam duct. The electrical connection path is interrupted in the beam duct adjacent to the transformer. To avoid the sensor measured the wall current and other unnecessary circulating currents. The DCCT toroid is independent installed outside of a vacuum beam duct to measure the average beam current. In order to reduce the influence of external magnetic field for the sensor, two layers of Mu metal shell are installed. The performance and progress for the DCCT are described in this paper.

  A1050 is a common and soft material, widely used in everyday life. It is machinable and cheap, which makes it a candidate for a gasket material. In the case of sealing between disparate materials, treating the thermal expansion when the gasket suffers from baking is difficult. The clearance and the eccentricity between the gasket and the flange are also important; most leaks occur about 80 ~ 110 oC. The experimental apparatus comprised a vacuum chamber with six diamond-edge gaskets assembled, a turbo-molecular pump and an extractor gauge. The pre-baking torque for this gasket is 70 – 80 kg cm; the rates of both heating and cooling are less than 40 oC per hour. The gaskets are baked repeatedly under the same conditions excluding the target temperature set for baking. A1050 diamond gaskets work well after baking at 120 ~ 140 oC; at temperature 170 ~ 180 oC, leaks sometimes appear on cooling. This paper presents the baking results of A1050 diamond-edge gasket and explains the cause of leaking after baking above 150 oC.

  For Taiwan Photon Source in NSRRC, the in-vacuum undulator (IU22) will be set in the straight section. The baking test took place in the NSRRC. The heating wires were welded on the outside wall of stainless chamber. The tape heaters were used for the sites without the heating wires. After acceptation test, we assemble the residual gas analysis (RGA) and extractor gauge in the IU22. The pumping down curve and RGA spectrum were recorded and investigated. It was found the slope of the pumping curve near 1 h is -0.99. When the temperature gradually increases to about 185 oC, the vacuum pressure arrives to about 8.7x10-5 Torr. The most gas source is from water before baking process. After baking test, the major residual gas includes H2, CH4, H2O, CO, and CO2. We analyze the RGA spectrum during the baking process and discuss in the paper.

  The vacuum systems for the 3 GeV Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) have been constructed since 2010. Most of the vacuum components and equipments have been manufactured and delivered. For the electron storage ring (SR), all the 24 cells of 14 m aluminum vacuum systems have been welded and assembled. The vacuum baking for the cells in the laboratory was undergoing to achieve the ultrahigh vacuum pressure below 1×10-8 Pa. The vacuum systems accommodated with the insertion devices in the long straight sections have been designed and under manufacturing. For the booster (BR), all the stainless steel chambers including the 0.7 mm elliptical chambers, BPM ducts, and the pumping chambers, have been manufactured. The two transport lines: LTB for Linac to BR and BTS for BR to SR were manufactured. Vacuum chambers for BTS adopt the similar chambers for BR but will be baked to ultrahigh vacuum for connecting with SR without injection window. The beam ducts for LTB will be made of aluminum alloys. The construction works for TPS vacuum systems will be completed before April of 2013 while the installation of the systems in the TPS tunnel will be started immediately.
