Revolver In-Vacuum X-ray Undulator which was designed and fabricated at Spring-8 is under commissioning at PLS. This planar undulator whose permanent magnet array structure is a revolving type with 90-degree step provides 4 different undulator wavelengths of 10, 15, 20, and 24 mm. The minimum gap of the undulator is as small as 5 mm. It was observed that the trailing part of a long bunch train was scraped due to ion instability when the undulator gap was closed below 6 mm. At that time the vacuum pressure in the undulator, which is estimated to be about one order of magnitude lower than that of the undulator gap, increased from 1.4 x 10-10 (gap 20 mm) to 7.9 x 10-10 Torr (gap 6 mm) at the stored beam current of 100 mA. This high vacuum pressure causes fast beam-ion instability: trailing part of a long bunch train oscillates vertically. It was also confirmed that adjusting the orbit along the undulator has improved the situation to some extent. The ion instability measured with a pico-second streak camera and a one-turn BPM as well as the result of orbit adjustment and chromaticity control will be described in this paper.
