TUBC1 | Recent Progress and Operational Status of the Compact ERL at KEK | 1359 |

Funding: Work supported by the Photon and Quantum Basic Research Coordinated Development Program from the MEXT, and by the MEXT grant for promoting technology for nuclear security. The Compact Energy Recovery Linac (cERL) is a superconducting test accelerator aimed at establishing technologies for the ERL-based future light source. After its construction during 2009 to 2013, the first CW beams of 20 MeV were successfully transported through the recirculation loop in February 2014*. Then, initial tuning of beams and evaluations of beam properties were carried out. From September to December in 2014, we are constructing a Laser Compton Scattering (LCS) source** which aims at demonstrating technology for the future high-flux quasi-monochromatic gamma-ray source. In the next run of the cERL, which begins at the end of January 2015, we plan such works as an increase in the beam current (from 10 uA to 100 uA), commissioning of the LCS source, and sustained tuning of beams for lower emittance. We will report up-to-date results of these developments. * N. Nakamura et al., IPAC2014, MOPRO110; S. Sakanaka et al., LINAC14, TUPOL01. ** R. Nagai et al., IPAC2014, WEPRO003. |

TUPWA067 | Status of Higher Bunch Charge Operation in Compact ERL | 1583 |
|
||
In the KEK compact ERL (cERL), machine studies toward higher bunch charge operation is one of the most important issues. From January 2015 to April 2015, we carried out a higher bunch charge operation with an bunch charge of 0.5 pC for the experiment of laser compton scattering. After the study of space charge effect and optics tuning, we succeeded in the recirculation operation with the emittance, which was close to the design value. Moreover, a test operation in the injector section with the bunch charge of 7.7 pC was carried out as a preparation toward the recirculation operation with the average current of 10 mA. | ||

WEPMA054 | A Disturbance-Observer-based Controller for LLRF Systems | 2895 |
|
||
Digital low-level radio frequency (LLRFs) systems have been developed and evaluated in the compact energy recovery linac (cERL) at KEK. The required RF stabilities are 0.1% rms in amplitude and 0.1° rms in phase. These requirements are satisfied by applying digital LLRF systems. To further enhance the control system and make it robust to disturbances such as large power supply (PS) ripples and high-intensity beams, we have designed and developed a disturbance observer (DOB)-based control method. This method utilizes the RF system model, which can be acquired using modern system identification methods. Experiments show that the proposed DOB-based controller is more effective in the presence of high disturbances compared with the conventional proportional and integral (PI) controller. In this paper, we present the preliminary results based on the experiments with DOB-based controller. | ||
