	Funding: Results in this report are derived from work performed at Argonne National Laboratory. Argonne is operated by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-06CH11357. The MBA upgrade for the APS will operate with bunch swap out and on axis injection. The planned 324 bunch fill pattern places difficult demands on the injection and extraction kickers. The present concept uses dual stripline kickers driven by high Voltage pulsers. Minimizing perturbation on adjacent bunches requires very fast rise and fall times with relatively narrow ~20 nsec, 15 kV pulses. To achieve these requirements we have initiated a multifaceted R&D program. The R&D includes the HV pulser, stripline kicker and HV feedthrough. We have purchased a commercial dual channel HV pulser and are evaluating its performance and reliability. In addition, we are investigating the feasibility of using nonlinear ferrite loaded coaxial cables (shockwave transmission line) to sharpen the leading and trailing edges of high voltage pulses. We are also developing a prototype kicker and high voltage feedthrough. The requirements for injection and extraction, progress on prototype development and results of our HV pulser investigations will be reported.

TUPJE079	High Charge Development of the APS Injector for an MBA Upgrade	1828

	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. The APS MBA (multi-bend achromat) upgrade storage ring will employ a “swap out” injection scheme and requires a single-bunch beam with up to 20 nC from the injector. The APS injector, which consists of a 450-MeV linac, a particle accumulator ring (PAR), and a 7-GeV synchrotron (Booster), was originally designed to provide up to 6 nC of beam charge. High charge injector study is part of the APS upgrade R&D that explores the capabilities and limitations of the injector through machine studies and simulations, and identifies necessary upgrades in order to meet the requirements of the MBA upgrade. In the past year we performed PAR and booster high charge studies, implemented new ramp correction of the booster rap supplies, explored non-linear chromatic correction of the booster, etc. This report presents the results and findings.

WEPTY014	Development of Fast Kickers for the APS MBA Upgrade	3286

	Funding: *Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. The APS multi-bend achromat (MBA) upgrade storage ring will support two bunch fill patterns: a 48-singlets and a 324-singlets. A “swap out” injection scheme is adopted. In order to minimize the beam loss and residual oscillation of injected beam and to minimize the perturbation of stored beam during a swap-on injection, the rise, fall, and flat-top parts of the kicker pulse must be held within a 22.8-ns interval. Traditional ferrite-core-type kickers can’t meet the timing requirements; therefore, we decided to use stripline-type kickers. We have completed a preliminary design of a prototype kicker geometry. Procurement of the pulser supply and other components of an evaluation system is under way. We report the specification and design of the fast kicker and current status.
