  The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a 3-GeV third-generation source of synchrotron radiation with beam current 500 mA stored in the storage ring. A front end allows intense synchrotron light generated in the storage ring to pass through to a beamline. Most heat load of the synchrotron light is removed in the front ends to protect the beamline components. Alignment of front-end components becomes important to prevent damage from the large heat load. Because of the many front ends and the brief period of installation, the alignment work should be easy, quick and reliable. Using a shim method, the adjustable degrees of freedom are decreased from six to two. This adjustment work becomes easier and quicker. The alignment of a front-end prototype is described here.

  A ground grid of 4 rings and 62 vertical electrodes has been constructed for the TPS storage ring. The ground resistance was designed to be smaller than 0.2 ohms in order to give a good protection of the TPS electrical facility and personnel. In order to match the building construction schedule the TPS ground grid has been installed about 1/6 segment of the construction project each period. The ground impedance of each segment was measured right after the installation. The ground grid with the diameter of 200 m of outside ring and its low impedance value, also the limit testing space, challenged the measurement of ground resistance. Several different methods of ground testing have been used and the measured results are compared each other. These methods include fall-of-potential method, slope method, intersecting curves method and the test-current-reversal method. The final TPS ground impedance will be measured and compared with the calculation from combining the previous several segment measurements. The actual TPS ground resistance should have a smaller value than expected.

  The construction of the utility system for the 3.0 GeV Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) has been contracted out in the end of 2009. The whole construction of the utility system is scheduled to be completed in the end of 2012. Total budget of this construction is about four million dollars. The utility system includes the electrical power, cooling water, air conditioning, compressed air and fire control systems. The TPS construction site is located adjacent to TLS. Some areas of TPS and TLS are overlapped. Under tight schedule, limit budget and geographic constrains, it is a challenge to complete the utility system construction of TPS on time, on budget, and to specification. This paper presents some main issues and status of the utility system construction for the TPS storage ring.

  This work presents the water treatment design of Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). The system design is influenced by supplied water quality, water quantity and the selected process scheme. The system is composed of a pretreatment, make-up, and points-of-use filtration systems. The pretreatment system consists of an active carbon tower, a normally cartridge filter and a reversed osmosis (RO) unit. Furthermore, the make-up system consists of an ultraviolent (UV) TOC reduction unit and a ion-exchange resin unit. Following the water treatment process, the proposed system can provide high quality de-ionized water whose resistivity is better than 10 MΩ-cm at 25±0.1 degree C and dissolved oxygen is less than 10 ppb.

  Safety interlock is one of critical subsystems in synchrotron radiation accelerator. A front end (FE) interlock prototype system has been designed, fabricated, and initially tested for Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). TPS FE interlock logic is designed based on that of Taiwan Light Source (TLS), and moderately modified due to the accelerator parameter discrepancy between TPS and TLS. The programmable automation controllers (PAC) have been utilized in FE safety interlock system for their reliability, convenience, processing capability, communication, and stability in user interface. In FE PAC system, touch panels are used as the graphical user interface (GUI) to control and monitor FE components. In addition, with GUI control it is used to beam position monitoring devices as well as confined beam sizes aperture for beam line users. The interlock design such as data acquisition and parameters monitoring for vacuum pressure, flow rate of cooling water, pressure of compressive air, chamber and water temperature, and overall interlock logic are also presented in this paper.

  National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) is constructing a large third-generation synchrotron accelerator in Taiwan, the so-called Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). This 3-GeV, 500-mA machine will generate high-density bending-magnet radiation, of which 90 % of the power is absorbed by the crotch absorber in the storage ring. To understand better the beam-cleaning and photon-desorption phenomena of a copper crotch absorber, we have performed a PSD (photon-stimulated desorption) test in Taiwan Light Source (TLS) at Beam line 19 (BL19). Some mathematical modelling, experimental designs and results are also presented here.

  The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the installation sequence of TPS SR kicker. Because of adding the rotation function in row direction, the position of every component of kicker must be very precise. The kicker magnet and EMI enclosure were fastened on the rotation motor plate which could rotate ±3.0 mrad. The ceramic chamber remain fixed on the bottom plate in order to let the bellow stress free during rotation. After installation, the inductance measurement and the high voltage breakdown test were also tested. The experimental results showed the good uniformity and reached the expected request. The field mapping and EMI prevention schemes will be tested in the future.
