Funding: US DOE, SC, BES, MSE, award DE-SC0021365 and DOE NNSA award 89233218CNA000001 through DOE’s EPSCoR program in Office of BES with resources of DOE SC User Facilities BNL’s ATF and ALCF. A MeV ultrafast electron diffraction (MUED) instrument is a unique characterization technique to study ultrafast processes in materials by a pump-probe technique. This relatively young technology can be advanced further into a turn-key instrument by using data science and artificial intelligence (AI) mechanisms in conjunctions with high-performance computing. This can facilitate automated operation, data acquisition and real time or near- real time processing. AI based system controls can provide real time feedback on the electron beam which is currently not possible due to the use of destructive diagnostics. Deep learning can be applied to the MUED diffraction patterns to recover valuable information on subtle lattice variations that can lead to a greater understanding of a wide range of material systems. A data science enabled MUED facility will also facilitate the application of this technique, expand its user base, and provide a fully automated state-of-the-art instrument. We will discuss the progress made on the MUED instrument in the Accelerator Test Facility of Brookhaven National Laboratory. |

MOPAB314 | Surrogate Modeling for MUED with Neural Networks | 970 |
|
||
Electron diffraction is among the most complex and influential inventions of the last century and contributes to research in many areas of physics and engineering. Not only does it aid in problems like materials and plasma research, electron diffraction systems like the MeV ultra-fast electron diffraction(MUED) instrument at the Brookhaven National Lab(BNL) also present opportunities to explore/implement surrogate modeling methods using artificial intelligence/machine learning/deep learning algorithms. Running the MUED system requires extended periods of uninterrupted runtime, skilled operators, and many varying parameters that depend on the desired output. These problems lend themselves to techniques based on neural networks(NNs), which are suited to modeling, system controls, and analysis of time-varying/multi-parameter systems. NNs can be deployed in model-based control areas and can be used simulate control designs, planned experiments, and to simulate employment of new components. Surrogate models based on NNs provide fast and accurate results, ideal for real-time control systems during continuous operation and may be used to identify irregular beam behavior as they develop. | ||

WEPAB401 | Study for Alternative Cavity Wall and Inductive Insert Material | 3650 |
|

Funding: Contract No. 89233218CNA000001, supported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), for the management and operation of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The goal of this work was to develop a solution to the problem of longitudinal beam instability. Beam instability has been a significant problem with storage rings’ performance for many decades. The proton storage ring (PSR) at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANCE) is no exception. To mitigate the instability, it was found that ferrite inductive inserts can be used to bunch the protons that are diverging due to the electron background. The PSR was the first storage ring to successfully use inductive inserts to mitigate the longitudinal instability with normal production beams. However, years later new machine upgrades facilitate shorter, more intense beams to meet the needs of researchers. The ferrite inserts used to reduce the transverse instabilities induce a microwave instability with the shorter more intense proton beam. This study investigates alternative magnetic materials for inductive inserts in particle beam storage rings, including the necessary engineering for maintaining the ideal temperature during operation. ’ tjschaub@unm.edu |
