    CERN, Geneva
  The present design of the CLIC damping ring can easily accommodate anticipated CLIC parameter changes. Realistic misalignments of magnets and monitors increase the equilibrium emittance. In simulations we study both the sensitivity to magnet displacements and the emittance recovery achieved by orbit correction, dispersion-free steering and coupling compensation.  
 
MOPLT046 Overcoming Performance Limitations due to Synchrobetatron Resonances in the HERA Electron Ring resonance, optics, betatron, sextupole 650
 
  • F.J. Willeke
    DESY, Hamburg
  The HERA Electron Ring was suffering from strong synchrobetatron resonances which have been particularly detrimental after the HERA luminosity upgrade because of a reduced sychrotron tune due to stronger transverse focusing and a shift in the damping distribution in favor of transverse damping. It turned out to be most difficult to store a beam at the preferred working point for high electron spin polarization between the 2nd and the 3rd synchro-betatron satellite of the horizontal integer resonance. A comparative study of the resonance strength did not reveal any significant additional disadvantage of the new beam optics. However, a mechanism driven by closed orbit distortions was discovered which can increase the width of the resonance Qx+2Qs=0 by a large factor. This explains the operational difficulties. The remedy against this effect is quite straight forward. The Fourier component of the closed orbit near the horizontal tune must be avoided. This is enforced in HERA operations by rigerous orbit corrections and an orbit feedback system which reproduces well-corrected orbits reliably. Synchrobetatron resonances do not constitute a performance limitation of polarized lepton proton collisions in HERA any more.

  Careful optics studies and stringent lattice control have been identified as two key components to increasing PEP-II luminosity. An accurate, trusted BPM system is required for both of these strategies. To validate the existing BPM system and to better understand some optical anomalies in the PEP-II rings, an aggressive program of beam-based alignment (BBA) has been initiated. Using a quad-shunt BBA procedure in which a quadrupole?s field strength is varied over a range of beam positions, relative offsets are determined by the BPM readings at which quadrupole field changes no longer induce a closed orbit shift. This procedure was verified in the HER and is well underway in the LER IR. We have found many surprisingly large BPM offsets, some over one centimeter, as well as a number of locations where the current nominal orbit is several millimeters from the quadrupole center. Tune versus quadrupole field data were taken during the BBA process in the LER IR, and the non-linear response in each case is compared to simulation to infer local beta functions.  
 
MOPLT158 Cost Optimization of Non-Scaling FFAG Lattices for Muon Acceleration lattice, acceleration, extraction, injection 902
 
  • J.S. Berg, R. Palmer
    BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York
  Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) accelerators are a promising idea for reducing the cost of acceleration for muon accelerators as well as other machines. This paper presents an automated method for designing these machines to certain specifications, and uses that method to find a minimum cost design. The dependence of this minimum cost on various input parameters to the system is given. The impact of the result on an FFAG design for muon acceleration is discussed.  
 
TUPKF032 COD Correction by Novel Back-leg at the KEK-PS Booster power-supply, injection, booster, beam-losses 1030
 
  • S. Ninomiya, K. Satoh, H. Someya, M. Toda
    KEK, Ibaraki
  The COD correction is performed by using new driving system of back-leg windings. Two back-leg coils of the separate magnets are connected to make a closed circuit in which the induced voltages of the two magnets have opposite phases to each other. When the current source is inserted into the closed loop, the current drives the two magnets with opposite polarities. If the pair of magnets is properly selected, the current effectively corrects the orbit distortion. The selection rule of the pair is as follows; one is the magnet at the maximum distortion and the second magnet is that separated with the betatron phase of -90deg. The correction system at the KEK-PS Booster reduced the COD to less than 1/5 of that without correction, and increased the capture efficiency. The average beam intensity of our Booster is increased from 2E+12 to 2.6E+12ppp.  
 
TUPLT013 Calculating LHC Tuning Knobs using Various Methods quadrupole, lattice, optics, storage-ring 1159
 
  • W. Wittmer, D. Schulte, F. Zimmermann
    CERN, Geneva
  By measuring and adjusting the beta-functions at the IP the luminosity is being optimized. In LEP this was done with the two closest doublet magnets. This approach is not applicable for the LHC due to the asymmetric lattice and common beam pipe through the triplet magnets. To control and change the beta-functions quadrupole groups situated on both sides further away from the IP have to be used where the two beams are already separated. The quadrupoles are excited in specific linear combinations, forming the so-called tuning knobs for the IP beta-functions. We compare the performance of such knobs calculated by different methods: (1) matching in MAD, (2) inversion of the re-sponse matrix and singular value decomposition inversion and conditioning and (3) conditioning the response matrix by multidimensional minimization using Hessian method.  
 
TUPLT037 Dispersion Correction in HERA luminosity, polarization, positron, electron 1228
 
  • J. Keil, W. Decking
    DESY, Hamburg
  The electron-proton collider HERA at the DESY laboratory in Hamburg has been in operation since 1991. After the luminosity upgrade of HERA in 2001 the control of the horizontal and vertical dispersion function of the positron beam became more important than before. Deviations from the design dispersion in the horizontal plane can change the emittance of the electron beam significantly thus leading to a reduction of the luminosity. For optimizing the polarization of the electron beam the reduction of vertical orbit and dispersion deviations is important. In this paper the combined dispersion and orbit correction in HERA is described and first results are reported.  
 
TUPLT038 Closed Orbit Correction and Orbit Stabilisation Scheme for the 6 GEV Synchrotron Light Source PETRA III emittance, ground-motion, quadrupole, insertion 1231

    DESY, Hamburg
  PETRA III is a 6 GeV synchrotron light source being reconstructed out of the existing storage ring PETRA II. It will have a horizontal beam emittance of 1nm.rad and a 1% emittance ratio. Since the vertical beam sizes are ~5?10 micron in the low gap undulators sections the beam position stability requirement in the vertical plane is between 0.5 and 1 micron whereas the stability requirement in the horizontal plane is more relaxed. In this paper determination of golden orbit in the presence of magnetic field errors and magnet misalignments and correction of vertical spurious dispersion is discussed. A scheme of slow and fast orbit correction using the SVD algorithm has been developed. The distribution of monitors and the location of slow and fast correctors are reported. Estimations of the parameters of the fast orbit feedback have been derived from present measurements on PETRA II.

    BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York
  Working point scans at RHIC were performed during 2004 to determine the effect on lifetime and luminosity. Linear optics were measured for different working point tunes by exciting coherent oscillations with the aid of RHIC AC dipoles. Two methods to measure the beta functions and phases are presented and compared: a conventional technique, and a new method based on singular value decomposition (SVD). The performance of a 3-bump beta wave algorithm to identify quadrupole error sources is also presented.

  The measurement of local linear errors at RHIC interaction regions using an "action and phase" analysis of difference orbits has already been presented [*]. This paper evaluates the accuracy of this technique using difference orbits that were taken when known gradient errors and skew quadrupole errors were intentionally introduced. It also presents action and phase analysis of simulated orbits when controlled errors are intentionally placed in a RHIC simulation model.

  The measurements of betatron coupling via skew quadrupole modulation is a new diagnostics technique that has been recently developed and tested at RHIC. By modulating the current of different skew quadrupole families with different frequencies and measuring the resulting eigentunes response with a high resolution phase lock loop (PLL) system, it is possible to determine the projections of the residual coupling coefficients. We report the results of extensive beam studies carried on at RHIC injection, store energy and on the ramp. The capability of measuring coupling on the ramp opens the possibility of continuous coupling corrections during acceleration.

  • Y. Cai
    SLAC, Menlo Park, California
  I will give a comprehensive review of existing particle tracking tools to assess long-term particle stability for small and large accelerators in the presence of realistic magnetic imperfections and machine misalignments. The emphasis will be given to the tracking and analysis tools based upon the differential algebra, Lie operator, and "polymorphism". Using these tools, a uniform linear and non-linear analysis will be outlined as an application to the normal form. Finally I will compare simulation results with observations in existing circular accelerators. "Model independent analysis" will be treated as an example for measuring machine optics.

WEPLT005 Building Truncated Taylor Maps with Mathematica and Applications to FFAG quadrupole, lattice, dipole, focusing 1822
 
  • D. Kaltchev
    TRIUMF, Vancouver
  Lie algebra tools coded directly in Mathematica have been used to compute the off-momentum closed orbit, orbit length and horizontal tune of Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) lattices proposed for muon acceleration. The sample FFAG cell considered consists of quadrupoles and alternating gradient magnets. A high order Taylor map is needed, valid over a wide momentum range. We describe the algorithm and Mathematica operators needed to create and concatenate individual element maps (presented as Lie exponential operators) and compare our results with those obtained with a high-order differential algebra code – COSY. The speed achieved is inferior to the differential algebra method.  
 
WEPLT045 Experiments on LHC Long-range Beam-beam Compensation in the CERN SPS emittance, beam-losses, simulation, betatron 1936
 
  • F. Zimmermann, J.-P. Koutchouk, J. Wenninger
    CERN, Geneva
  Long-range beam-beam collisions may limit the dynamic aperture and the beam lifetime in storage-ring colliders. Their effect can be compensated by a current-carrying wire mounted parallel to the beam. A compensation scheme based on this principle has been proposed for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). To demonstrate its viability, a prototype wire was installed at the CERN SPS in 2002. First successful machine experiments explored the dependence of beam loss, beam size, and beam lifetime on the beam-wire distance and on the wire excitation. They appear to confirm the predicted effect of the long-range collisions on the beam dynamics. In 2004, two further wires will become available, by which we can explicitly demonstrate the compensation, study pertinent tolerances, and also compare the respective merits of different beam-beam crossing schemes for several interaction points.

  The ANKA synchrotron light source operates in the energy range from 0.5 to 2.5 GeV. Typical requirements for light sources include small beam sizes, large lifetimes and high currents to provide the highest possible photon flux. The understanding of impedance and instability related issues is very important in order to improve the machine performance, in particular when small aperture insertion devices are installed that require protection by a scraper. In the framework of an impedance survey the transverse and longitudinal wake fields induced by a vertical scraper have been measured and analysed. This paper reports the beam observations and compares them with the expectation.

  The ANKA electron storage ring is operated at energies between 0.5 and 2.5 GeV. A major requirement for a synchrotron light source, such as ANKA, is to achieve a high beam current. A multitude of mostly impedance related effects depend on either bunch or total beam current. This paper gives an overview over the various beam studies performed at ANKA in this context, specifically the observation of current dependent detuning, the dermination of the bunch length change with current from a measurement of the ratio between coherent and incoherent synchrotron tune and an assessment of the effective longitudinal loss factor from the current dependent horizontal closed orbit distortion.

  • T. Perron, L. Farvacque, E. Plouviez
    ESRF, Grenoble
  Transverse impedance increase due to installation of low gap vacuum chambers is a general effect observed in synchrotron light sources. ESRF has been sensitive to this increase of impedance, as its single bunch threshold has dramatically decreased. This paper presents a method based on closed orbit distortion measurements, witch allows to measure locally the vertical effective impedance. Results of measurements performed on low gap vacuum chambers and in-vacuum ondulators are presented. As an extension to this experiment, a new global method is discussed. This method, also based on closed orbit measurement allows measuring simultaneously all areas of high impedance in the machine

  The lattice for the future MAX-IV storage rings at MAX-Lab has been studied, The MAX IV facility consists of two similar rings operated at 1.5 GeV and 3 GeV electron energies, The ring consists of 12 supercells each built up by 5 unit cells and matching sections. The high periodicity of the lattice combined with the high gradients in the small gap dipole magnets yield a small emittance of 1 nm.rad, good dynamic aperture and momentum acceptance. In the matching section, a soft end dipole magnet is introduced to reduce the synchrotron radiation power hitting the upstream straight section.  
 
WEPLT148 Dynamical Map for Combined Function Magnets with Solenoid, Dipole and Quadrupole Fields dipole, quadrupole, interaction-region, lattice 2185
 
  • A. Wolski, M. Venturini
    LBNL, Berkeley, California
  The interaction regions of colliders invariably include strong solenoid fields. Where quadrupoles and dipoles are embedded in the solenoid, the beam dynamics in the combined fields can be complicated to model using the traditional approach of interleaving slices of different fields. The complexity increases if the design trajectory is offset from the magnetic axis; this is the case, for example, in PEP-II. In this paper, we present maps for combined solenoid, dipole and quadrupole fields that provide a much simpler alternative to the traditional approach, and show that the deviation of the design trajectory from the magnetic axis can be handled in a straightforward manner. We illustrate the techniques presented by reference to the PEP-II interaction region.

  This paper is based on recently found sets of self-consistent 2D and 3D time-dependent space charge distributions. A subset of these distributions can be injection-painted into an accumulator ring, such as Spallation Neutron Source Ring, to produce periodic space charge conditions. The periodic condition guarantees zero space-charge-induced halo growth and beam loss during injection. Practical aspects of such schemes are discussed, and simulations of a few specific cases are presented.

THPLT006 A Comparison of COSY DA Maps with Analytic Formulae for Orbit Functions of a Non-scaling FFAG Accelerator electron, betatron, quadrupole, acceleration 2469
 
  • S.R. Koscielniak
    TRIUMF, Vancouver
  Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) magnetic lattices with fixed, possibly high, radio-frequency proposed for muon acceleration have unusual requirements: relative momentum swing dp/p of ± 30% and relative spread of revolution frequencies < 10(-3). It is not evident whether the existing accelerator optical design codes are sufficiently accurate for such a large momentum range. Analytic expressions for orbit displacements, tunes and path length have been derived for thick-element models of doublet, F0D0 and FDF triplet lattices; it is this paper's purpose to compare these with values computed by SYNCH and COSY, and truncated Taylor maps constructed by Lie algebra. The mutual agreement of results from independent sources will serve to validate them all. A mathematical necessity is that one at least of the magnets be of the combined-function type, and with entrance and exit faces disposed in a sector layout. It is sufficient to consider the triplet case because in the limit that the two F quadrupoles are combined, the cell reduces to the simpler F0D0. We use as our example a "nonscaling" FFAG ring proposed for accelerations of muons over the momentum range 10-20 GeV/c.

  The real-time orbit feedback system foreseen for the LHC will be an essential component for reliable and safe machine operation. A test setup including a number of beam position monitors equipped with the LHC acquisition and readout system have been installed in the SPS ring to perform prototyping work on such an orbit feedback. A closed loop digital feedback was implemented and tested with LHC beams on the SPS during the 2003 machine run. The feedback loop was tested successfully at up to 100 Hz. The performance of the feedback loop and of its constituents will be described.

  At the KEK 12GeV-PS main ring, when the least square method is applied to correct whole beam orbit all at once, it remains unacceptable beam loss and it is necessary to adjust the local positions of the beam orbit by hands with the beam loss monitors until the beam loss is suppressed under an acceptable level. However, the orbit does not realize the minimum-loss condition. In this paper, a new method is proposed. It focuses a fact that the beam loss distribution depends on the shape of the beam orbit and formulates this relationship to a functional approximation by using a nural network algorithm. Then, solving an optimization problem for generated network system, data of the beam shape which is more suitable for the beam loss of the accelerator can be obtained. The description of the system construction and experimental results are presented.

THPLT150 Results from Orbit and Optics Improvement by Evaluating the Nonlinear Beam Position Monitor Response in CESR coupling, betatron, optics, electron 2807
 
  • R.W. Helms, G. Hoffstaetter
    Cornell University, Laboratory for Elementary-Particle Physics, Ithaca, New York
  In the Cornell Electron/positron Storage Ring (CESR), pretzel orbits with large horizontal oscillations are used to keep electron and positron beams out of collision except at the interaction point. Since a beam position monitor's (BPM's) response is only linear near the center of the beam pipe, the assumption of linearity does not allow for accurate orbit and phase measurements under colliding beam conditions. Using a numerical model of the BPMs' response to large offsets of the beam position, and an enhanced algorithm for real-time inversion of this nonlinear response function, we have extended our orbit and betatron phase measurements to beams with large pretzel amplitudes. Several measurements demonstrate the applicability, accuracy, and usefulness of this method.

  Here we present a new algorithm for processing BPM signals and extracting orbit and phase data for very large beam excursion where the BPM response function changes nonlinearly with the beam position. Using two dimensional models of each BPM geometry, we calculate the button response using numerical solution of Laplace's equation and Green's reciprocity theorem. The difference between the calculated signals and the measured signals is minimized in real time to calculate the beam position and measurement errors. Using the derivatives of the response functions, we model the effect of beam shaking, and from it, calculate the betatron phase.  
 
THPLT170 Finding the Circular Magnet Aperture which Encloses an Arbitrary Number of Midplane-centered Beam Ellipses coupling, superconducting-magnet, lattice 2858
 
  • J.S. Berg
    BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York
  In specifying the magnets for an accelerator, one must be able to determine the aperture required by the beam. In some machines, in particular FFAGs, there is a significant variation in the closed orbit and beta functions over the energy range of the machine. In addition, the closed orbit and beta functions may vary with the longitudinal position in the magnet. It is necessary to determine a magnet aperture which encloses the beam ellipses at all energies and all positions in the magnet. This paper describes a method of determining the smallest circular aperture enclosing an arbitrary number of midplane-centered ellipses.
