| MOPRO099 | Long-term Stability of the Diamond Light Source Storage Ring | 319 |
|
||
| The Diamond Storage Ring (SR) has been in operation since January 2007. This paper summarises a number of measurements that have been made over that period to monitor the SR stability in height and position including general survey, Hydrostatic Levelling System (HLS), horizontal and vertical magnet corrector strengths as well as Radio Frequency (RF) measurements that have given an indication of changing circumference. | ||

| MOPRO100 | Engineering Integration Constraints on the Beam Physics Optimisation of the DDBA Lattice for Diamond | 322 |
|
||
| The design and optimisation of the new DDBA lattice for Diamond has been performed taking fully into account, from the early stages, the geometry and the engineering integration constraints. In this paper we review the evolution of the DDBA cell, the rationale for its modification and the optimisation strategy used. | ||

| MOPRO103 | The Double-double Bend Achromat (DDBA) Lattice Modification for the Diamond Storage Ring | 331 |
|
||
|
The concept of converting individual cells of the Diamond Double Bend Achromat (DBA) lattice into a modified 4-bend achromat with a new straight section for insertion devices (IDs) in the middle of the arc, grew out of earlier studies of low emittance MBA lattices*, and was motivated by the need for additional ID straight sections, since all of the 22 ID straight sections in the Diamond storage ring are either occupied or have been allocated to future beamlines. Such a modification effectively replaces each DBA cell with two new DBA cells, hence the term Double-DBA or DDBA has come to be used for the project. Since the tangent point for bending magnet beamlines lies close to the start of the second dipole in the original DBA, this allows unused exit ports and spaces on the experimental hall which are available for future bending magnet beamlines to be used for higher performance ID beamlines. In this report we present an overview of the status of the project, the various accelerator physics and engineering studies that have been carried out, and plans for the implementation of one or two DDBA cells in Diamond.

| TUPRI081 | Feed-forward and Feedback Schemes applied to the Diamond Light Source Storage Ring | 1757 |
|
||
| Since initial operation for users in Jan 2007, Diamond Light Source has developed to support a suite of 22 experimental stations. These stations have resulted in the installation of 24 undulators and two superconducting wigglers in the storage ring. To preserve optics, tune and coupling with the operation of these devices has necessitated the implementation of a number of feed-forward and feedback schemes. The implementation and operation of these correction schemes will be described. | ||

| TUPRI082 | Active Optics Stabilisation Measures at the Diamond Storage Ring | 1760 |
|
||
| The Diamond storage ring is currently operated with 26 insertion devices (IDs), including 14 in-vacuum IDs, 7 APPLE-II type helical undulators and 2 superconducting wigglers. Differences in the design, construction and operation of these devices, combined with different Twiss parameters at the source point, mean each has a different impact on tune stability and beta-beat. In turn, these parameters affect the on and off-momentum dynamic aperture and ultimately impact on the injection efficiency and lifetime. Another source of optics variation arises from the coherent tune shift with current, which when injecting from zero current causes the tune to span the available good-tune region. In this paper we discuss the difficulties of operating the Diamond storage ring in top-up mode with these effects, and present the various measures taken to stabilise the storage ring optics. | ||

| TUPRI083 | A Fast Optics Correction for the Diamond Storage Ring | 1763 |
|
||
|
Since March 2013, the Diamond storage ring has been operated with a target vertical emittance of 8 pm.rad. This condition is achieved by first applying a LOCO* optics correction with IDs set to their typical gaps, then offsetting the skew quadrupole magnets in order to increase the vertical emittance again to the desired value. Whilst a feedback application** is able to stabilise the vertical emittance during ID gap and phase changes in the short to medium term, regular applications of LOCO are still required to maintain good coupling control in the longer term. In this paper we describe measures taken to speed up the optics correction procedure, including a fast orbit response matrix measurement, a reduction of the number of magnets used to measure the data, and a distribution of the LOCO calculations to run in parallel.

| THPRO030 | Developments in CLARA Accelerator Design and Simulations | 2930 |
|
||
| We present recent developments in the accelerator design of CLARA (Compact Linear Accelerator for Research and Applications), the proposed UK FEL test facility at Daresbury Laboratory. Updates on the electron beam simulations and code comparisons including wakefields are described. Simulations of the effects of geometric wakefields in the small-aperture FEL undulator are shown, as well as further simulations on potential FEL experiments using chirped beams. We also present the results of simulations on post-FEL diagnostics. | ||

| THPME183 | Longitudinal Beam Profile Measurements of the Microbunching Instability | 3706 |
| SUSPSNE075 | use link to see paper's listing under its alternate paper code | |
|
||
| The microbunching instability is a phenomenon characterized by the onset of radiation bursts above a threshold bunch current. These bursts consist of coherent emissions with wavelengths comparable to the bunch length and shorter. The instability has recently been observed at Diamond Light Source, a 3rd generation synchrotron. The operating conditions for triggering the instability at Diamond Light Source are well known, however measuring the spectral content of the resulting emissions is a more challenging investigation. A Michelson interferometer has been installed with the aim of recording the coherent spectrum from the bunches, using ultra-fast response Schottky Barrier Diode detectors. The longitudinal profile of the bunches can be estimated with subsequent analysis. | ||
