	High beam currents, 2A(HER) & 3A(LER), in PEP-II has been a challenge for the vacuum system. For the ~1 cm long bunches peak currents reach 50 A. Thus modest impedances can give rise to voltage spikes and discharges. A weakness was uncovered during Run 6: rf seals at the "flex flanges" that join the HER arc dipole and quadrupole chambers became a source of an increasing number of HER beam aborts. Vacuum activity was seen and thermal sensors on these flanges saw temperature spikes. Inspection of the seals found arcing and melting, prompting us to replace all of these seals with an improved design using Inconel instead of GlidCop fingers. We believe the GlidCop fingers do not maintain elasticity and hence can not follow chamber motion due to thermal effects. The Run 7 startup confirmed the success of this repair. However, high bunch current in the LER caused breakdown in a LER kicker. This limited the LER bunch current to about 1 mA. Inspection revealed damage to one of the recently added Macor pins that help support the electrodes. Failure analysis revealed heating of the pin & post-facto modeling shows high fields coming from a combination of HOM impedance and high peak currents.
WEPP042	An Improved Design for a SuperB Interaction Region	2614

	We present an improved design for a SuperB interaction region. The new design attempts to minimize the bending of the two colliding beams which results from shared magnetic elements near the Interaction Point (IP). The total crossing angle at the IP is increased from 34 mrad to 50 mrad and the distance from the IP to the first quadrupole is increased. Although the two beams still travel through this shared magnet, these changes allow for a new a new magnetic field design with a septum which gives the magnet two magnetic centers. This greatly reduces the beam bending from this shared quadrupole and thereby reduces the radiative bhabha background for the detector as well as any beam emittance growth from the bending. We decribe the new design for the interaction region.

	With the termination of operation of the PEP-II storage rings for high energy physics at hand, and with the migration of accelerator operation at SLAC in general to photon science applications, a study of the potential conversion of the PEP-II to a future light source has been initiated. With a circumference of 2.2 km and the capability for high current operation, it is clear that operating a converted ring at medium energy (3-6 GeV) could offer very low emittance and an average brightness of order 10²², limited primarily by the power handling capacity of photon beam line optical components. Higher brightness in the soft X-ray regime might be reached with partial lasing in long undulators if the emittance is sufficiently low, and high peak brightness could be reached with seeded FEL emission. Advanced pulsed rf technology might be used to generate short bunches and fast switched polarization in soft X-ray rf undulators. An overview of the preliminary findings of the PEP Light Source study group will be presented, including lattice, X-ray source and beam line options.

	Submitted for the High Luminosity Study Group for an Asymmetric Super-B-Factory: Parameters are being studied for a high luminosity e⁺e^- collider operating at the Upsilon 4S that would deliver a luminosity of 1 to 2 x 10³⁶/cm²/s. This collider would use a novel combination of linear collider and storage ring techniques. In this scheme an electron beam and a positron beam are stored in low-emittance damping rings similar to those designed for a Linear Collider (LC) or the next generation light source. A LC style interaction region is included in the ring to produce sub-millimeter vertical beta functions at the collision point. A large crossing angle (±25 mrad) is used at the collision point to allow beam separation. A crab-waist scheme is used to reduce the hourglass effect and restore peak luminosity. Beam currents of about 1.8 A in 1400 bunches can produce a luminosity of 10³⁶/cm²/s with upgrade possibilities. Design parameters and beam dynamics effects are discussed.

	New low emittance lattices (1.6 nm at 7 GeV, 2.8 nm at 4 GeV) have been designed for the asymmetric SuperB accelerator aiming at a luminosity of 10³⁶ cm^-2 s^-1. Main optics features are two alternating arc cells with different horizontal phase advance, in order to decrease beam emittance and allow at the same time for easy chromaticity correction in the arcs. Emittance can be further reduced by a factor of two for luminosity upgrade. New beam parameters have been chosen to fulfill the transparency conditions for 4x7 GeV beams, different from the asymmetric currents used in operating B-Factories. Beam polarization schemes have been studied and will be implemented in the lattice.
WEPP044	Commissioning the 90° Lattice for the PEP II High Energy Ring	2617

	In order to benefit from further reduction of the vertical IP beta function of the PEP-II HER the bunch length should be reduced. This will be achieved by changing the phase advance from 60 deg to 90 deg in the four arcs not adjacent to the IR region, thus reducing momentum compaction by about 30% and reducing bunch length from a present 12 mm down to 8.5 mm at low beam current. In preparation to implement the 90 deg lattice the main HER quadrupole and sextupole strings and their power supplies have been reconfigured. Compared to the 60 deg lattice it was expected that dynamic aperture and injection will be more difficult. The synchrotron tune initially will be lower but can be brought back by raising the rf voltage. Beam emittance is held at 48 nmr by introducing a significant dispersion beat in the arcs. The lattice was successfully commissioned at currents up to 800mA in August 2007. In this paper we will compare the actual machine with the predicted behaviour, explain the correction strategies used and give an overall assessment of the operation and the benefit of the new lattice configuration.
