  Linear optics modifications in order to improve injec-tion efficiency and for the installation of two IDs in one straight section demand an optimization of the sextupole correction scheme. Four harmonic sextupole families were sufficient with the earlier 8-fold symmetric lattice. Today there are ten families of harmonic sextupole mag-nets in addition to the three families of chromatic sextu-poles. This paper describes our experimental approach to find better settings for these harmonic sextupoles based on the direct optimization of the injection efficiency with a longitudinal phase offset between storage ring and the injector - in our case a booster synchrotron. As demon-strated in the paper, the resulting improvement of the phase acceptance of the ring leads to increased momen-tum acceptance by suppressing 3rd order non-systematic resonances. This increases not only the injection effi-ciency for long bunches but also the Touschek lifetime, the largest contribution to the overall lifetime of low emittance storage rings.

THPAB007 Short Bunches at the Transition From Strong to Weak Longitudinal Instability 3696

  The interaction of particles with their vacuum sur-roundings can lead to longitudinal instabilities of the whole bunch of particles. Most of these instabilities are strong and the growth rates are large compared to the damping rate. For a weak instability the opposite is true and with just a resistive impedance the instability would always be weak and independent of the bunch length. The interaction of a bunch with its own radiation emitted midway between parallel plates leads to a strong instabil-ity for long bunches and a transition to weak instability if the bunch length becomes shorter. This regime is ana-lysed numerically with a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck solver. The results are compared to recent observations at ANKA. An attempt is made to explain the remaining discrepan-cies by including higher order terms of the momentum compaction factor into these calculations. There are indi-cations that the simple model needs refinements in order to take radiation from upstream dipoles into account.
