  At ALBA four Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) measure the beam position along the Linac to Booster Transfer Line. The BPM electronics (Libera Spark type) have been recently upgraded in order to be sensitive to single-pass beam detection. As a result, the position resolution measured in LTB BPMs has been increased by a factor 10 with respect to the former electronics. The increased resolution enables us to resolve the energy jitter of the Linac beam, providing an on-line measurement of the Linac energy during regular operation. In this paper a study of the Linac energy jitter is presented as well as its correlation with the jitter sources.

  We developed a L-band beam position monitor with position resolution of few hundred nano meter for Superconducting Test Faciliy(STF) in KEK. The L-band BPM was developed to install inside the superconducting cryomodule of STF in KEK and it’s test was performed at Accelerator Test Facility in KEK. The three L-band BPM are fabricated and installed at the end of Linac of ATF. The position resolution measurement was performed with new L-band BPM electronics. In this talk, we will describe about the development of L-band BPM and its beam test results of nano meter level beam position resolution with new electronics system.

  Stable and reliable beam position measurement is of paramount importance for the present and future light sources. Stabilization with a pilot-tone technique was developed by Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste and supported in the commercial BPM electronics Libera Spark. Both system components (the pilot-tone front-end and BPM electronics) are controlled through a common software interface which is compatible with TANGO, EPICS and LabVIEW/MATLAB clients. The system provides a reliable self-diagnostics, cable and button diagnostics and drift compensation. This paper presents results from beam measurements under different environmental and beam conditions.

  The LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU) project at CERN prepares the injectors to meet the requirements of the High Luminosity LHC. For protons, it includes the new Linac4, PS Booster (PSB), PS and SPS. Among the major changes concerning the PSB, the extraction energy increase from 1.4 GeV to 2 GeV and the higher beam intensity, made possible by the Linac4 together with the new charge exchange injection system into the PSB (2·1013 protons) strongly affect the RF system requirements. To deal with this more demanding beam operation, a new RF system was designed. It is based on modern magnetic alloy loaded cavities driven by solid-state amplifiers. Its wideband frequency response (1 MHz to 18 MHz) covers all the required frequency schemes. This new RF system has been produced in 2017 and 2018; installation is planned during 2019, the first year of Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) and commissioning foreseen in 2020. Most of the production and testing was outsourced to industry; parts acceptance, cavities assembly and pre-testing was done in-house. A quality assurance plan was established to achieve the required high reliability. This paper describes the procurement, production and testing strategies and methodologies. It also reports the achieved results, system performances and relevant statistics.

  Pulse radiolysis is one of the methods to elucidate radiation chemical reactions. In order to elucidate that, not only high temporal resolution, but also a light source with a broad spectrum band is required. A Xe flash lamp is mentioned as a light source having a broad spectrum band. However, in measurement using a Xe flash lamp, the time resolution is limited to the nanosecond order. In this research, we have developed supercontinuum light as a light source that enables picosecond time resolution and has a broader spectrum band. In this paper, we developed a light source using an Er doped fiber laser for pulse radiolysis measurement, and report the results and future prospects here.

  The carrier suppression interferometer method can be used as a radio receiver architecture which allows for detection of RF signals in the attosecond range. The carrier suppression scheme requires an automatic carrier suppression circuit which provides stable operation of the RF receiver in the best operating point. In the poster we investigate the requirements for such an algorithm, evaluate the achievable closed loop bandwidth and the side effects on the overall-performance. In addition we apply the carrier tracking to simplify and automate the characterization of various electronic phase shifters and attenuators in the as-range

  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.

  Experience gained from commissioning and operation of three elliptical polarization undulators (EPU) at the TPS taught us that undulator driving systems can behave erratically following a beam dump or loss. In this work, we discuss possible harmful radiation sources in a storage ring and analyse the effect of lack of electronic component radiation resistance in the system. According to measurements of spatial radiation distribution at the TPS, we propose solutions and an improved design for Phase-II EPUs.
