TUOAN1 | SuperB: Next-Generation e+e− B-factory Collider | 690 |

Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. The SuperB international team continues to optimize the design of an electron-positron collider, which will allow the enhanced study of the origins of flavor physics. The project combines the best features of a linear collider (high single-collision luminosity) and a storage-ring collider (high repetition rate), bringing together all accelerator physics aspects to make a very high luminosity of 1036 cm-2 s-1. This asymmetric-energy collider with a polarized electron beam will produce hundreds of millions of B-mesons at the Y(4S) resonance. The present design is based on extremely low emittance beams colliding at a large Piwinski angle to allow very low ßy* without the need for ultra short bunches. Use of crab-waist sextupoles will enhance the luminosity, suppressing dangerous resonances and allowing for a higher beam-beam parameter. The project has flexible beam parameters, improved dynamic aperture, and spin-rotators in the Low Energy Ring for longitudinal polarization of the electron beam at the Interaction Point. Optimized for best colliding-beam performance, the facility may also provide high-brightness photon beams for synchrotron-radiation applications. |

TUODN1 | CSR Fields From Using a Direct Numerical Solution of Maxwell's Equations | 784 |
|

Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. We discuss the properties of the coherent electromagnetic fields of a very short, ultra-relativistic bunch in a rectangular vacuum chamber inside a bending magnet. The analysis is based on the results of a direct numerical solution of Maxwell’s equations together with Newton’s equations. We use a new dispersion-free time-domain algorithm which employs a more efficient use of finite element mesh techniques and hence produces self-consistent and stable solutions for very short bunches. We investigate the fine structure of the CSR fields including coherent edge radiation. This approach should be useful in the study of existing and future concepts of particle accelerators and ultrafast coherent light sources. |

WEP186 | Wake Potentials in the ILC Interaction Region | 1837 |
|

Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. The vacuum chamber of the ILC Interaction Region (IR) is optimized for best detector performance. It has special shaping to minimize additional backgrounds due to the metal part of the chamber. Also, for the same reason this thin vacuum chamber does not have water cooling. Therefore, small amounts of power, which may be deposited in the chamber, can be enough to raise the chamber to a high temperature. One of the sources of “heating” power is the electromagnetic field of the beam. This field diffracts by non-regularities of the beam pipe and excites free-propagating fields, which are then absorbed by the pipe wall. In addition we have a heating power of the image currents due to finite conductivity of the metallic wall. We will discuss these effects as updating the previous results. |

THP114 | Status of the PEP-X Light Source Design Study | 2336 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported in part by Department of Energy Contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 and Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Division of Chemical Sciences. 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. |

THP140 | Synchrotron Light Options at Super-B | 2384 |
|
||
The Super-B facility will collide electron and positron beams with different characteristics as done in the past at PEP-II and KEKB. The ring and electron (positron) beam characteristic of both high and low energy rings of the Super-B are comparable to NSLS-II and other state of the art synchrotron light sources. This suggests the use of this facility, either parasitically or in dedicated runs, as light source. In this paper we compare the characteristics of the synchrotron light generated at Super-B with existing, in construction and proposed facilities. We investigate different schemes to incorporate the generation of synchrotron radiation in the collider lattice design and look at different beam line layouts for users. | ||
