  Beta function value at quadrupoles for a circular accelerator can be determined using the relationship between the machine tune and the quadrupole strength. ALBA Storage Ring quadrupoles were measured during manufacturing, to be sure that their performance fitted the specifications. However, measurements were done at a number of currents that are not enough for an accurate determination of the beta function value. In fact, at least 1% error in the calibration of the hysteresis curve slope of the quadrupole is required, and therefore new detailed measurements of the hysteresis cycle are needed. In order to make these measurements, spare quadrupoles existing at ALBA have been used. In this paper we present the results of beta function values determination using this method for ALBA storage ring.

  The measurement of big closed magnetic structures is becoming a challenge of great interest. The main reason is the tendency towards building accelerators with high magnetic fields produced by small gap magnets, as well as the development of cryogenic or superconducting narrow-gap insertion devices. Usual approach, based on side-measurements made with a Hall probe mounted on the tip of a motorized arm based on a long granite bench is no more applicable to such closed structures. So, new concepts and approaches have been developed, mainly based on complex devices that insert a Hall probe inside the magnetic structure maintaining the desired position by close-loop controls. The main problem of these devices is that they are not general-purpose oriented: they need a special vacuum chamber, require a specific geometry of the magnetic structure, or does not provide 3D field-map measurements. We present in this paper a new bench that has been built at ALBA synchrotron that is simple, multi-purpose and can be a general solution for measuring big closed structures.
