  The Mainz Mikrotron MAMI is a cascade of three racetrack microtrons, delivering since 1991 a high quality 855MeV, 100muA cw electron beam for nuclear and radiation physics experiments. An energy upgrade of this machine to 1.5GeV by adding a Harmonic Double-Sided Microtron (HDSM)* as a fourth stage is well under way. Here we give a review of the experiences gained during fabrication and testing of the main components of the HDSM and report the status of its construction. Initial operation of the machine is expected for the first half of 2006. After a period of commissioning in diagnostic pulse mode with low beam power (10ns, high intensity bunch trains with a repetition rate of max. 10kHz), soon the first nuclear physics experiments will be started.

  At the Institut fur Kernphysik (IKPH) of Mainz University the fourth stage of the Mainz Microtron (MAMI), a 855MeV to 1500MeV Harmonic Double Sided Microtron (HDSM), is now on the verge of first operation*. To provide an automated beam optimisation, low-Q-TM010 and TM110 resonators at each linac of the three cascaded RTMs and the two linacs of the new HDSM are used. These monitors deliver position, phase and intensity signals of each recirculation turn when modulating the beam intensity with 12ns-pulses (diagnostic pulses, max. rep. rate 10kHz). For operating the HDSM an extended system for displaying and digitising these signals was developed. High-bandwidth ADCs allow very comfortable to analyse, calibrate and automatically optimise the beam positions and phases during operation. The system is also used to adjust the transversal and longitudinal focussing according to the design parameters. Synchrotron radiation monitors, providing beam sizes and positions out of the bending magnets for each turn and on the entrance and exit of the linac axis, were a very helpful tool for beam-matching between the RTMs. Therefore a similar system was planned and constructed for the HDSM.
