  This paper describes the impact on the measuring results of the stripline beam position monitor (BPM) produced by the edge of the ultra-relativistic electron beam when we take the transverse size of the beam into account. Simulations have been made by using the Wakefield Solver of CST Particle Studio. And the result of this influence at different ratio of beam horizontal width σ and the BPM inner diameter a has been obtained. This kind of influence has been observed in the stripline BPMs in the transfer line of Beijing Positron Electron Colliders upgraded version II (BEPCII). The research is useful when we design the inner diameter of the stripline BPMs for ultra-relativistic electron beam, meanwhile it provides reference to distinguish the invalid ones from the measuring results obtained by the stripline BPMs in the ultra-relativistic situation.

A two-cavity bunch length monitor for linac of positron source is designed. Fifth harmonic cavity resonates at 14.28 GHz (fifth harmonic of the linac fundamental frequency 2.856 GHz) with mode TM020, as this mode could provide larger cavity radius. Each cavity equipped with a filter to suppress unwanted signal. An improved bunch length calculation method was proposed. A simulation was conducted in CST Particle Studio for beam current from 100-300 mA, bunch length from 5-10 ps. Bunch length was calculated and compared by these two methods

A dissector is an electron-optical device designed for measurement of periodic light pulses of subnanosecond and picosecond duration. LI-602 dissector developed at BINP is widely used for routine measurements of a longitudinal profile of electron and positron beams at BINP electron-positron colliders and other similar installations]. This dissector is a part of many optical diagnostic systems and provides temporal resolution of about 20 ps. Recently* a new generation of picosecond dissectors were created on the basis of the PIF-01/S1 picosecond streak-image tube designed and manufactured at the General Physics Institute Photoelectronics Department (Moscow). The device has demonstrated a temporal resolution of 3-4 ps (FWHM). The procedure of temporal resolution calibration and results of application of the new-generation picosecond dissector are given in this work.

A visible-light beam size monitor has been built and commissioned to measure transverse beam profiles at CESR-TA*. In order to eliminate beam jitter and to study bunch-by-bunch beam dynamics, a fast-gating camera has been utilized to measure single bunch transverse beam profiles. The minimum camera gate width is ~ 3ns which allows us to resolve single bunch beam dynamics along a CesrTA bunch train. Using single bunch interferometry at different bunch currents, we found that the horizontal beam sizes measured by gated camera are consistently less than those measured by a conventional CCD camera, demonstrating the elimination of turn-by-turn beam jitter with single shot capability. By stepping the camera trigger delay, we collected transverse beam profile images from each bunch in a 14ns-spacing 30-bunch train. The horizontal motion of each bunch as well as the horizontal beam size increases dramatically along an electron train but not along positron bunch trains under the same machine condition. The difference in single bunch horizontal dynamics may be a signature for the difference between electron cloud build-up for positron bunch trains versus ions present for electron bunch trains.

  In 2016, the second phase of SLAC's x-ray laser, the LCLS-II, will begin to use part of the tunnel occupied by FACET, and the world's only multi-GeV facility for advanced accelerator research will cease operation. FACET-II is a new test facility to provide DOE with the unique capability to develop advanced acceleration and coherent radiation techniques with high-energy electron and positron beams. FACET-II is an opportunity to build on the decades-long experience developed conducting advanced accelerator R&D at the FFTB and FACET and re-deploy HEP infrastructure in continued service of its mission. FACET-II provides a major upgrade over current FACET capabilities and the breadth of the potential research program makes it truly unique. It will synergistically pursue accelerator science that is vital to the future of both advanced acceleration techniques for High Energy Physics, ultra-high brightness beams for Basic Energy Science, and novel radiation sources for a wide variety of applications. The presentation will discuss FACET-II project status and plans for diverse experimental program.

  The SuperKEKB, an electron-positron collider with asymmetric energies in KEK, has started the first commissioning with beams this year. One of major tasks in the commissioning is the beam scrubbing of new beam pipes in order to increase the beam lifetime and to decrease the background noise of the particle detector in the coming physics run. The temperatures and the vacuum pressures of new vacuum components, such as the bellows chambers, gate valves and the beam collimators, should be checked in this run. The decrease rate in the vacuum pressure are measured to estimate the vacuum scrubbing effect. Reported here will be the results obtained during the first commissioning and the present status of the vacuum system.

  The FACET-II facility, currently being designed at SLAC, will contain a small ~20 m circumference, 335 MeV, positron damping ring. The ring has to fit in the existing linac tunnel, meaning that a compact lattice with short distances between magnets is required. The detailed magnet design is done in Opera-3d, with a finite element model of a full damping ring arc being simulated. This article presents this magnet design in a relatively early stage, with iteration between magnet and lattice design currently in progress.

  Muon beams are customarily obtained via K/π decays produced in proton interaction on target. In this paper we investigate the possibility to produce low emittance muon beams from electron-positron collisions at centre-of-mass energy just above the μ+{+}μ+{-} production threshold with maximal beam energy asymmetry, corresponding to a positron beam of about 45 GeV interacting on electrons on target. Performances on both amorphous and crystal target are presented, and the general scheme for the muon production will be given. We present the main features of this scheme with a first preliminary evaluation of the performances that could be achieved by a multi-TeV muon collider.

We report on measurements of electron cloud (EC) induced tune shifts and emittance growth at the Cornell Electron-Positron Storage Ring Test Accelerator (CesrTA) with comparison to tracking simulation predictions. The simulations are based on a weak-strong model of the interaction of the positron beam (weak) with the electron cloud (strong), using electric fields computed with established EC buildup simulation codes (ECLOUD). Experiments were performed with 2.1 GeV positrons in a 30 bunch train with 14 ns bunch spacing and 9 mm bunch length, plus a witness bunch at varying distance from the train to probe the cloud as it decays. Measurements of the horizontal and vertical coherent tune shifts and horizontal and vertical bunch size were obtained for a range of train and witness bunch currents, and compared to simulations.

Based on the past experience in slow positron beam, researchers at NSRL/USTC proposed a fast positron source for detection of material deep tiny flaws. Different from conventional positron sources used in positron annihilation techniques, the planned positron source will be a positron production linac, similar to positron injectors used in colliders. To compress the positron pulse, the bombarding electron beam comes from a short bunch photo-injector. A computer simulation was performed using EGS4 and PARMELA code. The bombarding electron bunch is 300pC, with an energy of 30MeV. Simulations results showed that it is reasonable to expect a beam of more than 105 positrons per pulse for future positron annihilation studies. Further work is to be done to achieve precise control of beam energy.

Following up on our 2013 and 2014 measurements of electron cloud trapping in a quadrupole magnet with 7.4~T/m gradient in the 5.3~GeV positron storage ring at Cornell University, we have redesigned the shielded-stripline time-resolving electron detector and installed a wide-aperture quadrupole magnet at a location in the ring where its field can be compensated by a nearby quadrupole, thus allowing the first measurements of cloud trapping as a function of field gradient. The transverse acceptance of the electron detector has been tripled, allowing tests of model predictions indicating a dramatic cloud splitting effect which exhibits a threshold behavior as a function of bunch population. In addition, a vacuum chamber optimized for cloud buildup measurements using resonant microwave phenomena has been employed. We describe design considerations and modeling predictions for the upcoming 2016 data-taking run. This project is part of the CESR Test Accelerator program, which investigates performance limitations in low-emittance storage and damping rings.

Over the past decade, there has been enormous progress in the field of beam and laser-driven plasma acceleration of electron beams. However, in order for plasma wakefield acceleration to be useful for a high-energy e+e- collider, we need a technique for accelerating positrons in plasma as well. This is a unique challenge, because the plasma responds differently to electron and positron beams, with plasma electrons being pulled through the positron beam and creating a non-linear focusing force. Here, we demonstrate a technique called hollow channel acceleration that symmetrizes the wakefield response to beams of either charge. Using a transversely shaped laser pulse, we create an annular plasma with a fixed radius of 200 μm. We observe the acceleration of a positron bunch with energies up to 33.4 MeV in a 25 cm long channel, indicating an effective gradient greater than 100 MeV/m. This is the first demonstration of a technique that way be used for staged acceleration of positron beams in plasma.

  We proposed 6 GeV Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) as an intense gamma-ray source for the polarized positron source of International Linear Collider (ILC)*. In this scheme, Coherent Synchrotron Radiation from quasi-CW 6 GeV electron beam is stacked in optical cavity at middle infrared region, and it is used for inverse Compton scattering to generate 10 MeV polarized gamma-ray. The same 6 GeV superconducting linac accelerates both the electron and positron beams up to 5 GeV for injection to the dumping ring. Furthermore, it is available for X-ray light source by adding another recirculation loop. It can be expected as a diffraction limit light source at 10 keV, and the target of the brilliance is 1022-23 ph/s/mm2/mrad2/b.w.0.1%.

Modernization has started in the middle of 2013 and now the electron and positron beams with highly increased production rate together with top-up injection from BEP are ready to feed VEPP-2000 ring and provide design luminosity at the whole energy range limited only by beam-beam effects. The design and operation experience of IC damping ring, 250 m transfer channel and booster BEP dealing with 2.6 T magnets at top energy will be presented.

  A 300Hz conventional, e- driven positron source for the ILC is proposed by an international team. In this paper, we focus on numerical analysis of dynamic stresses in the Tungsten target. These are driven by the pulsed e-beam, which causes rapid heating and subsequent, dynamic loads in the target which can lead to fracture and failure of it. A program of ANSYS workbench is used in the study. The dynamic stresses from both of extremely short (10 ns) and nominal (1μs) thermal pulses are systematically studied in various target related parts such as small spheres, cylinders. Particular attention has also been paid to the buckling of foils.

  The R&D of the baseline positron source target for ILC is still ongoing after TDR due to the uncertainty of rotating vacuum seal and water cooling system of the fast spinning target wheel. Different institutes around the globe have proposed different approaches to tackle this issue. A spinning target wheel system with sliding contact cooling has been proposed by ANL. The proposed system eliminated the needs of rotating vacuum seal by using magnetic torque coupler to drive the solid spinning wheel target. The energy deposited from positron production process is taken away via cooling pads sliding against the spinning wheel. A full size test wheel has been built and some initial tests have been done with promising outcomes. Results of these tests are presented in this paper along with a plan for developing a prototype.

  Using the SUPERFISH code we present a design for a traveling wave (TW) structure of the Booster Linac for CLIC. The structure, consisting of thirty asymmetric cells attached to the beam pipes at two ends, works in 2Pi/3 operating mode at working frequency 2 GHz. The RF field transmitted through the designed cavity is prepared in an RF field data file to be used in the PARMELA code. We will then compare the resultant output PARMELA field with that of the ideal RF field which obtained from the usual method for a traveling wave structure.
