To compensate modulated beam-beam offsets caused by mechanical vibrations of IR triplet quadrupoles at frequencies around 10 Hz, a fast IR orbit feedback system has been developed. We report design considerations and recent status of the system.

Recent beam experiments at BNL's AGS Booster have enabled us to study in more detail the effects of eddy currents on the lattice structure and our control over the basic lattice parameters of betatron tune and chromaticity. The Booster is capable of operating at ramp rates as high as 8 T/sec. At these ramp rates eddy currents in the vacuum chambers have significant effects on the fields and gradients seen by the beam as it is accelerated. The Booster was designed with these effects in mind and to help control the field uniformity and linearity in the Booster Dipoles special vacuum chambers were designed with current windings to negate the effect of the induced eddy currents. In this report results from measurements of these effects will be presented. Results from modeling and comparisons to the measurements will also be presented.
