  A laser-based alignment system is under development at the 500-m-long KEKB injector linac. The original system was designed and constructed more than thirty-years ago, and thus, we are revisiting our alignment system because the previous alignment system has become too obsolete. The new alignment system is again strongly required for the next generation SuperKEKB project. The new laser alignment system is similar to the previous one, which comprises a helium-neon laser and quadrant photodetectors installed in vacuum light pipes. A girder displacement of the accelerating structure can be precisely measured in the direction of the laser-ray trace, where the laser light must stably propagate up to 500-m downstream without any orbital and beam-size fluctuation. We tested the laser-ray propagation and the stability along a 100-m-long beam line under a vacuum condition of 0.1-1 Torr. In this paper, we will report the system description and test results in detail.

  For superKEKB, in order to achieve aiming luminosity machine need to run with a nano-beam scheme so that a small beam emittance is critical important. During the beam propagation, the short-range wake field in the accelerating structure will cause the beam instability and emittance growth. In practical, injecting beam with certain offset could compensate wakfield. And beam emittance could be measured by tuning the quadruple known as quadscan method. In this paper, wakefield theoretical calculation, simulation results will be presented. And then the wakefield impact to beam emittance and wakefield compensation will be discussed. Finally, we will show the comparison of the results getting from theoretical calculation and experimental measurement.

  SuperKEKB, the upgrade plan of KEKB, aims to boost the luminosity up to 8x1035 /cm2/s. The beam energy of the Low Energy Ring (LER) is 4 GeV for positrons, and that of the High Energy Ring is 7 GeV for electrons. SuperKEKB is designed to produce low emittance beams. The horizontal and vertical emittances of the injection beams are 12.5 nm and 0.9 nm, respectively, which are one or two orders smaller than those of KEKB. The normal and maximum required charges are 4 nC and 8nC, respectively. The positron injector system consists of the source, capture systems, L-band and S-band linacs, collimators, an energy compression system (ECS), a 1.1-GeV damping ring, a bunch compression system (BCS), S-band and C-band linacs, another ECS and a beam transport line into the LER. For the low emittance beam with a huge amount of the positron charge like 8nC, some kinds of issues by the instabilities will be predicted due to such as Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR), beam loading, beam-beam effects, and so on. This paper reports a design of the positron beam injection system for SuperKEKB. In addition, comparisons with SuperB are described.
