MOPJE053 | NSLS-II Beam Lifetime Measurements and Modeling | 416 |
|
||
NSLS-II is a recently constructed 3 GeV synchrotron light source with design horizontal emittance values in sub-nm range. Achieving good beam lifetime is critically important for NSLS-II as it is closely tied in to such important operational aspects as top-off injection frequency, injector components wear, radiation protection and control, and others. In this paper we present lifetime-related commissioning results, describe our present understanding of beam lifetime at NSLS-II and extrapolate our models to the fully built-up machine operating at 500 mA design beam current. | ||

MOPMN024 | Study of NSLS-II Dynamic Aperture Tolerances with Respect to Field and Orbit Errors | 751 |
|
||
Funding: DOE contract No: DE-AC02- 98CH10886 As the emittance of synchrotron light sources moves towards diffraction limit, magnet tolerances for reaching dynamic aperture for high injection efficiency and long lifetime become more stringent. Once nonlinear families are designed and the machine is built a machine operator may ask to which accuracy the linear optics and orbit should be corrected so to achieve reasonable dynamic aperture. We also studied the relations of the non-linear elements and beta-beat to the dynamic apertures by simulating NSLS-II storage ring lattice and the paper shows the results. |

TUAB2 | First Collective Effects Measurements in NSLS-II with ID's | 1332 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by DOE contract DE-AC02-98CH10886. As another important milestone towards the final goal to store an average current of 500mA, the average current of 200mA, distributed within ~1000 bunches, was recently achieved in the NSLS-II storage ring after the installation of three Damping Wigglers and four In-Vacuum Undulators. First measurements of the collective effects and instability thresholds, both in single- and multi-bunch mode, are discussed. |

TUPMA050 | NSLS-II Injector Commissioning and Initial Operation | 1944 |
|
||
The injector for the National Synchrotron Light Source II storage ring consists of a 3 GeV booster synchrotron and a 200 MeV S-band linac. The linac was designed to produce either a single bunch with a charge of 0.5 nC of electrons or a train of bunches up to 300 ns long containing a total charge of 15 nC. The booster was designed to accelerate up to 15 nC each cycle. Linac commissioning was completed in April 2012. Booster commissioning was started in November 2013 and completed in March 2014. All of the significant design goals were satisfied including beam emittance, energy spread, and transport efficiency. While the maximum booster charge accelerated was only 10 nC this has proven to be more than sufficient for storage ring commissioning. The injector has operated reliably during storage ring operation since then. Results will be presented showing measurements of injector operating parameters achieved during commissioning and initial operation. Operating experience and reliability during the first year of NSLS-II operation will be discussed. | ||

TUPMA057 | Commissioning of Active Interlock System for NSLS II Storage Ring | 1962 |
|
||
The NSLS-II storage ring is protected from possible damage from insertion devices (IDs) synchrotron radiation by a dedicated active interlock system (AIS). It monitors electron beam position and angle and triggers beam drop if beam orbit exceeds the boundaries of pre-calculated active interlock envelope. In this paper we describe functional details of the AIS and discuss our experience with commissioning of the AIS for the first six IDs installed in the storage ring. | ||

TUPHA004 | NSLS-II Storage Ring Injection Optimization | 1968 |
|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The SR is designed to work in top-off injection mode. The injection straight includes a septum and four fast kicker magnets with independent amplitude and timing control. The beam injection is designed as 9.5 mm off-axis in x plane and on-axis injection in y plane. To capture the injected beam within the SR acceptance for high injection efficiency, it requires 6-D phase space match. Besides that, the fast kickers formed local bump is also required to be locally to minimize the injected beam extra betatron oscillation and keep the stored beam disturbance within the specification, 10% beam size to minimize the injection transient. This paper will present the beam results before and after optimization. | ||

TUPHA005 | Tools for NSLS II Commissioning | 1971 |
|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. As many facilities worldwide, NSLS II uses the EPICS control system to monitor and control all accelerator hardware. Control system studio (CSS) is used for simple tasks such as monitoring, display, setting of PVs. browsing the historical data, et. al. For more complex accelerator physics applications, a collection of scripts are mainly written in Python and part from Matlab during commissioning. With the close collaboration and fully support from control group, more and more CSS features were developed for operation convenience and several high level applications are interfaced with users in CSS panels for daily use based on softiocs. This paper will present the tools that we have been using for commissioning. | ||

|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. In the spring 2014, the storage ring was commissioning up to 50 mA without insertion device. In the fall, the project beamlines, includes seven insertion devices on six ID ports were commissioned within two and a half months. These beamlines consist of IXS, HXN, CSX-1, CSX-2, CHX, SRX, and XPD-1, from the radiation sources elliptically polarizing undulator (EPU), damping wiggler (DW) and in vacuum undulator (IVU) to cover the VUV through the very hard x-ray range. In this paper, a number of commissioning and operation experiences are discussed here, such as injection, lifetime, ID residual field and compensation, source point stability, beam alignment and tools for control, monitor and beam protection. | ||

TUPHA007 | NSLS II Booster Extended Integration Test | 1977 |
|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. While the installation activities in the booster-synchrotron are nearly completed and waiting for the authorization to start the booster commissioning, the injector and accelerator physics group have engaged into the Integrated Testing phase. We did the booster commissioning with simulated beam signals, called extended integrated testing (EIT) to prepare for the booster ring commissioning. It is to make sure the device function along with utilities, timing system and control system, to calibrate diagnostics system, debug High Level Applications, test and optimize all the operation screens to reduce the potential problems during booster commissioning with beam. | ||

TUPHA008 | NSLS-II Injector High Level Application Tools | 1980 |
|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The injection system consists of a 200 MeV linac, a 3 GeV booster synchrotron and transfer lines in connection of linac, booster and storage ring. The transfer lines, designed and built from BNL, are equipped with sufficient diagnostics to commission to characterize the beam parameters from linac and booster. In the paper, we summarized the high level applications tools, beam emittance, energy and energy spread measurement, developed during the injector commissioning. | ||

TUPHA009 | NSLS-II Storage Ring Coupling Measurement and Correction | 1983 |
|
||
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state of the art 3 GeV third generation light source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. To achieve the goal, 8 pm level vertical beam emittance, the coupling due to the misalignment in quads and vertical beam offset in sextuples must be corrected. Traditional method, based on response matrix, such as LOCO, is wildly used measure and corrects the coupling. In this paper, we present a new method to measure and correct the coupling with BPMs TBT data from fast kickers or pingers excited betatron oscillation. Besides the TBT data, other method, is also used to characterize the coupling. | ||
