  The Advanced Light Source (ALS) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is upgrading the existing storage-ring lattice to a nine-bend-achromat lattice with on-axis swap-out injection. The upgraded storage ring will provide a highly focused beam of about 10 um in both horizontal and vertical directions with a single bunch train energy of about 60 J at 2.0 GeV. Such a small and intense beam could cause damage to the transfer line vacuum chambers in case of extraction element failures or damage to the storage ring vacuum chamber in case of RF failures. To mitigate these potential damages, a fast kicker magnet (so-called decoherence kicker) will be installed in the ALS-U storage ring and activated to dilute the beam charge density either on a train to be swapped out a few 100s turns before extraction or on the whole beam after RF failures. In this paper, we will present both physics and engineering designs of this decoherence kicker.

A higher-harmonic rf cavity (HHC) system is required in the ALS-U storage ring to lengthen the bunches, reduce intrabeam-scattering effects, and improve Touschek beam lifetime. A 3rd harmonic, normal conducting, passive-cavity system has been chosen based on beam-dynamics requirements and cost considerations. We have explored two options for ALS-U 3HC system: a high-R/Q re-entrant cavity with waveguide HOM dampers, and a low-R/Q system with two elliptical cavities and HOM beam line absorbers. In this paper, we present the recent progress on the cavity design and related beam dynamics studies.

  Design work is underway for the upgrade of the Advanced Light Source (ALS-U) to a diffraction-limited soft x-rays radiation source. Like other 4th-generation light source machines, the ALS-U multiple-bend achromat storage-ring (SR) is potentially sensitive to beam-coupling impedance effects. This paper presents the SR broad-band impedance budget in both the longitudinal and transverse planes. In our modeling we follow the commonly accepted approach of separating the resistive-wall and the geometric parts of the impedance, the former being described by analytical formulas and the latter obtained by numerical electromagnetic codes (primarily CST Studio software) assuming perfectly conducting materials. We discuss the main sources of impedance. Results of our analysis are the basis for the single bunch instability study and would feedback on the design of critical vacuum components.

  As the broad-band impedance modeling and the vacuum chamber design of the new Advanced Light Source storage ring (ALS- U) reach maturity, we report on progress in single-bunch collective effects studies. A pseudo-Green function wake representing the entire ring was earlier obtained by numerical and analytical methods. Macroparticle simulations using the computer code "elegant" and this wake function are used to determine the instability thresholds for longitudinal and transverse motion. We consider various operating conditions, such as without/with higher-harmonic RF cavities, zero/finite linear chromaticity, and without/with a transverse bunch-by-bunch feedback system. Results show enough margin for the broadband impedance budget when the single-bunch instability thresholds are compared with the design bunch charge.

  For the ALS-U project, particles will be injected from the booster to the accumulator ring utilizing an injection scheme that leaves the stored and injected particles with a non-trivial transient. This transient requires that multibunch feedback be masked for those buckets into which charge is injected. The masking significantly diminishes the damping capability of the multibunch feedback system. This problem is exacerbated by the large injection transient. The higher order resistive wall wake fields in the accumulator ring exceed the radiation damping time. To study whether the beam will remain multibunch stable during an injection cycle, a multibunch tracking simulation is used that simulates the multibunch feedback system and also pseudomode representation of resistive wall wake fields.

The Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS-U) to a diffraction-limited storage ring with a small vacuum chamber diameter requires excellent orbit stability and a fast response orbit interlock for machine protection. The on-axis swap-out injection scheme and dual RF frequencies demand fast monitoring of pulsed injection magnets and a novel approach to timing. Recent development efforts at ALS and advances in PLLs, FPGAs, and RFSoCs that provide higher performance and mixed-signal integration can be leveraged for instrumentation solutions to these accelerator challenges. An overview of preliminary ALS-U instrumentation system designs and status will be presented.

The Advanced Light Source upgrade project (ALS-U) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory includes the construction of a new accumulator ring and the replacement of the existing storage ring. Both ferrite-loaded kickers and stripline kickers are used in the ALS-U design for injection, extraction, and decohering the beam before storage ring extraction. In the accumulator ring, the rise and fall time requirements are based on the single bunch revolution time of 608 ns which allows the use of ferrite-loaded kickers. The 10 ns spacing between bunch trains in the storage ring requires stripline kickers to meet the rise and fall time requirements. Both types of kickers are driven by solid-state inductive voltage adders using MOSFETs. Modeling and prototyping efforts have characterized the kicker impedance and beam-induced heating, and explored the effects of beam strike on electrodes.
