  The measurement accuracy of direct current-current transformer (DCCT) is one of the key factors influencing the output of high-precision direct current power supply. In this paper, a calibration system designed by measuring resistance principle with a high accuracy direct current comparator (DCC) was presented for DCCT whose measurement accuracy is better than 10-5. The system can achieve high-precision calibration of DCCT within the measurement range of 0-400 A, and the uncertainty of the system calibration is better than 1.1×10-6 in the whole range. The accuracy and linearity of DCCT are tested to verify the accuracy of the whole calibration system, thereby the current accuracy of the magnet power supply can be further improved.

The formation of non-Gaussian halo in both the transverse and longitudinal dimensions of beam bunches has been notoriously difficult both the model and to measure. We present a technique to measure the longitudinal halo of 2.5 MHz bunches in the Fermilab Recycler, which have been formed for the g-2 anomalous magnetic moment experiment. While out of time beam is not a particular concern to this experiment, it is a key issue for the subsequent Mu2e rare muon decay experiment, which will use the same bunch formation procedure. Our measurement relies on a statistical technique, in which a small fraction of the beam is scattered from the primary collimation foil in the recycler, and then is detected by a charge telescope consisting of quartz Cherenkov radiators and photomultiplier tubes. By integrating over many revolutions, the time profile of longitudinal halo (out-of-time beam) can be measured down to less than a 10-5 fractional level, relative to in-time beam. These results can then be compared to simulations.

  The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a modern, high brightness 3 GeV light source. A data acquisition pro-gram for the radio frequency (RF) system, including a transient data recorder, a long term data archiver and real time data monitoring, has been developed for the analysis of RF trips and RF system debugging. A soft alarm system is implemented as well utilizing EPICS and python packages. The hardware architecture and the functionality of the RF data acquisition and soft alarm system will be discussed in this article.

  The High Luminosity LHC project (HL-LHC) will incorporate a new generation of superconducting elements such as high field superconducting magnets based on Nb3Sn conductors and MgB2 based high temperature superconducting links for magnet powering. In addition, the HL-LHC will also feature new generations of NbTi based magnets. The proper protection and diagnostics of those elements require the development of a new generation of integrated quench detection and data acquisition systems as well as novel methods for quench detection. The next generation of quench detection systems is to a large extent software defined and serves at the same time as high performance data acquisition system. The contribution will discuss the specific needs of HL-LHC in terms of quench detection and present recent results from tests with prototype magnets. The contribution will show the implementation of new quench detection methods such as current derivative sensors. Measures for increasing the system dependability and easing its maintenance will be explained, as well as the improved supervision architecture using Ethernet based field-bus systems for fast data transmission.

  SwissFEL, the new Free-Electron Laser facility is a 740 m long accelerator with the goal of providing pulses of light between 6 and 30 fs long at a wavelength of 1 to 7 Å at 100 Hz*. To support shot-to-shot photon diagnostic* and link the measurements to other measurements along the machine that belong to the same machine pulse, a new triggering and data acquisition system was developed. A new protocol was introduced which allows deterministic triggering, configuration and data transfer via one full-duplex optical connection. The measurement data is stamped with an unique pulse identifier, delivered from the SwisFEL Timing System**. A readout and control interface was developed to support data delivery to the Data Acquisition Dispatching Layer* and for controlling the system.

  The proliferation of ultimate-light source facilities around the world has yielded the need of accurate characterization of small gap magnets. This also applies to multipolar magnets. Clearance diameters down to 10 mm for quadrupoless and sextupoles become to be used and need to be accurately measured. At these small gaps, the high order multipoles influence on electron beam dynamics is high, and it should be well characterized in order to guarantee a feasible operation of the accelerator. To face this challenge, ALBA magnetics measurement laboratory has developed a new rotating coil shaft with a diameter of 10 mm able to be introduced inside narrow-gap multipolar magnets. In this paper we present the design as well as the first characterization of such a device.
