The SLAC Beam Physics group and collaborators continue to study options for implementing a near diffraction-limited ring-based light source in the 2.2-km PEP-II tunnel that will serve the SSRL scientific program in the future. The study team has completed the baseline design for a 4.5-GeV storage ring having 160-pm-rad emittance with stored beam current of 1.5 A, providing >1022 brightness for multi-keV photon beams from 3.5-m undulator sources. The team is now investigating possible 5-GeV ERL configurations which, similar to the Cornell and KEK ERL plans, would have ~30 pm-rad emittance with 100 mA current, and ~10 pm-rad emittance with 25 mA or less. In the next year, a diffraction-limited storage ring using on-axis injection in order to reach 30 pm-rad or less emittance will be investigated. An overview of the PEP-X design study and SSRL’s plans for defining the performance parameters that will guide the choice of implementation options is presented.
