Synchrotron Light Research Institute (SLRI) has been commissioning an additional experimental station, a Beam Test Facility (BTF), to the SLRI accelerator complex. SLRI BTF was constructed to provide electron test beams with energy ranging from 40 MeV up to 1.2 GeV and with tunable electron intensity from a few to millions of electrons per burst. In order to obtain low intensity of test beams, an approach using a metal target together with an energy selector has been employed. A combination of a target chamber installed at the high energy beam transport line and the existing 4-degree bending magnet that is used as an energy selector first produced low intensity test beams. However, the test beam profile was not well determined due to the insufficient bending angle of the energy selector and high primary beam energy. Another approach mounting a target chamber at the low energy beam transport line and using the synchrotron booster as an energy selector was implemented to avoid such problems. Once in operation, the facility will have the potential to service calibration and testing of high energy detectors as well as beam diagnostic instrumentations.

  Siam Photon Source, the Thailand synchrotron light source, has received several upgrades in recent years. Most important of which are the improvement of the positional stability of the stored electron beam, and the installation of 2 IDs, i.e. a 2.2 T hybrid multipole wiggler and a 6.5 T superconducting wavelength shifter, to extend the available SR spectrum into hard x-ray region. The beam stability improvement was achieved through several activities, including improving the BPM system, upgrading the existing corrector power supplies, and implementing global orbit feedback. The two new IDs provide higher-intensity and higher-energy (up to 25 keV) synchrotron light, which will be utilized for MX, high-energy SAXS, WAXS, XAS, and microtomography. Ongoing machine upgrades include increasing the energy of the booster and transport line to 1.2 GeV for full-energy injection and eventual top-up operation. Utilization of the electron beam is also being explored. A beam test facility, which extracts electron beam in the booster for characterizing high-energy particle sensors, as well as calibrating other beam diagnostic instruments, has been constructed and is now in operation.
