Funding: This work is partially supported by the EC under the CESSAMag project, FP7 contract 338602. In this work we present the results of the measurement campaign of the main bending magnets of the SESAME storage ring, that were fully characterized at ALBA-CELLS magnetic measurements facility. A total of 17 combined function dipoles ' 16 series magnets plus a pre-series one ' has been tested and characterized. This campaign has been performed using a dedicated Hall probe bench. The main measurements include the transfer function at the center of the magnet and field maps of the three components of the field in a plane around the nominal trajectory of the electron beam, at two different operating currents. In this paper we describe the experimental setup and procedures, before reporting the main results, including statistics of magnet-to-magnet reproducibility and integrated field quality. Finally, we show how the measured data can be exploited for an optimal 3D alignment of the dipoles in the machine. |

| TUPMB019 | Detailed Characterization of MEBT Quadrupoles for the Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) | 1151 |
|

Funding: This work has been funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness under the Agreement as published in BOE, 16/01/2013, page 1988 The IFMIF-EVEDA* Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPac) is a 9 MeV, 125 mA CW deuteron accelerator to validate the technology to be used in the future IFMIF accelerator. The acceleration of deuterons will be done through two stages. The matching between them will be done in the Medium Energy Beam Transport line (MEBT). In this section, the transverse focusing of the beam is carried out by five quadrupole magnets with integrated steerers, grouped in one triplet and one doublet**. These magnets have been designed by CIEMAT, and manufactured by the Spanish company ANTECSA. After manufacturing, they were fully characterized at ALBA-CELLS magnetic measurements facility. In this paper we describe the characterization bench used to measure the magnets, the measurement protocol and the alignment procedure, as well as the results obtained and the iteration process followed in order to shim the magnets to fulfill with beam dynamics requirements. * A.

| WEPOW033 | Commissioning of the Alba Injector With 67 Mev Single Klystron Linac | 2905 |
|
||
| The 3 GeV ALBA booster normally accelerates an injected beam of 110 MeV, delivered by the linac operating with two independent klystrons. On 2014, the linac waveguide system was upgraded and commissioned to allow operating with either klystron and providing a reduced beam energy of 67 MeV. The commissioning of the booster to capture the beam at a reduced energy and ramp it up to 3 GeV has required a long set-up process of the magnets at 67 MeV beam energy. Due to the dominant effect of the remnant magnetic field in the low energy regime, the scaling of the magnet settings at the beginning of the ramp did not allow to capture the beam, and more precise calibrations were measured on spare quadrupoles to ease its fine tuning. The effect of higher eddy currents induced when the dipoles start ramping, combined with the lower beam rigidity, has been also an issue to tune the dipole waveforms for the 67 MeV - 3 GeV cycle. The encountered problems and their solutions to commission the ALBA injector in this new mode of operation are here presented. | ||
