Abstract The Advanced Light Source (ALS) at Berkeley Lab has been updated many times and remains as one of the brightest sources for soft x-rays worldwide. However, recent developments in technology, accelerator physics and simulation techniques open the door to much larger future brightness improvements. Similar to proposals at several other 3rd generation sources, this could be achieved by reducing the horizontal emittance with a new ring based on a multi-bend achromat lattice, reusing the existing tunnel, as well as much of the infrastructure and beamlines. After studying candidate lattice designs, development efforts in the last year have concentrated on technology and physics challenges in four main areas: Injection, Vacuum Systems, Magnets and Insertion Devices, as well as main and harmonic RF systems.
Funding The Advanced Light Source is supported by the Director, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231.
