MOPEA028 | Present Status of the KEK PF-Ring and PF-AR | 136 |
|
||
In KEK, two synchrotron light sources have been operated. One is the 2.5 GeV Photon Factory storage ring (PF-ring) and the other is the 6.5 GeV Photon Factory advanced ring (PF-AR). In this paper, present operational status and recent R&D activities such as fast local bump system for helicity switching undulator, hybrid injection system, pulsed-sextupole injection, etc. Futhermore, upgrade plan towards the top-up injection of 6.5 GeV PF-AR ring is underway. Construction of the straight injection tunnel from linac to PF-AR will be started next fiscal year. Design detail and strategy for the injection scheme will be reported. | ||
MOPFI019 | Beam Generation from a 500 kV DC Photoemission Electron Gun | 321 |
|
||
Funding: This work is supported by MEXT Quantum Beam Technology Program and partially supported by JSPS Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research in Japan (23540353). The next generation light source such as X-ray FEL oscillator requires high brightness electron gun with megahertz repetition rate. We have developed a DC photoemission electron gun at JAEA for the compact energy recovery linac (cERL) light source under construction at KEK. This DC gun employs a segmented insulator with guard rings to protect the insulator from field emission generated from central stem electrode. We have successfully applied 500-kV on the ceramics with a cathode electrode in place and generated beam from the 500kV DC photoemission gun in October 2012. Details of the beam generation test will be presented. |

WEPWA015 | Progress in Construction of the 35 MeV Compact Energy Recovery Linac at KEK | 2159 |
|
||
The 35-MeV Compact Energy Recovery Linac (the Compact ERL or cERL) is under construction at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) in Japan. With the Compact ERL, we aim at establishing cutting-edge technologies for the GeV-class ERL-based synchrotron light source. To install the accelerator components of the cERL, we have constructed a shielding room having an area of about 60 m x 20 m. We have then installed a 500-kV DC photocathode gun, a 5-MV superconducting (SC) cryomodule for the injector, a 30-MV SC cryomodule for the main linac, and some of the other components. High-power test on the main SC cryomodule is underway in December, 2012. High-power or high-voltage tests on the injector cryomodule and on the DC gun are planned during January to March, 2013. An injector of the Compact ERL will be commissioned in April, 2013. We report the newest status of its construction. | ||
WEPEA033 | Optimization of Injector System for Early Commissioning Phase of Compact-ERL. | 2573 |
|
||
Injector system of Compact-Energy Recovery Linear accelerator, which is currently develping in Photon Factory of KEK at Japan, consists of the photo-cathode DC gun, two solenoids, a 1.3 GHz buncher ,three 1.3 GHz 2 cell injector cavities, 5 quadrupole magnet and merger section. Target values of beam produced by the injector system are kinetic energy of 5 MeV, the normalized transverse emittance of under 0.1 mm-mrad and the bunch length of under 3 ps with the 7.7 pC charge per bunch and the repetition rate of 1.3 Ghz. In this low energy region, the effect of the space charge is dominated to cause the emittance growth. The optimization is performed by using MOGA (Multi-Object Genetic Algorithm) with code GPT to consider the effect of space charge under optimization. The code General Particle Tracer (GPT) is a 3D Paricle-In-Cell(PIC) code based on multi-layer object-oriented design. Using this method with code GPT, the target values was achieved at the exit of the merger section such as the normalized emittance of 0.1 mm-mrad with bunch length of 3 ps and kinetic energy of 5 MeV. | ||
WEPME015 | Evaluation of the Superconducting LLRF system at cERL in KEK | 2956 |
|
||
A low level RF (LLRF) design is being currently developed within the compact Energy Recover Linac (cERL) at KEK. One challenging task is to achieve the high amplitude and high phase stability required by the accelerating fields of up to 0.1% and 0.1°, respectively. To improve the performance of the LLRF system, a gain scanning experiment for determining the optimal controller gain was carried out on the cERL. Furthermore, as a substitute for the traditional PI controller, a more robust H∞-based multiple input multiple output (MIMO) controller was realized. This controller requires more detailed system information (transfer function or state equation), which can be acquired by using modern system identification methods. In this paper, we describe the current status of these experiments on the cERL. | ||
