  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.

  At the Advanced Light Source Upgrade (ALS-U), an on-axis swap-out injection will be used to replenish depleted bunches in the storage ring with refreshed bunches from the full energy accumulator ring. To implement this scheme, two transfer lines are required between the storage ring and the accumulator ring: the accumulator-to-storage-ring (ATS) transfer line and the storage-ring-to-accumulator (STA) transfer line. The design of the ATS/STA transfer lines is a challenging task as they must fit within a tight injection region while also accommodating the storage and accumulator rings at different elevations. Moreover, the ATS/STA design needs to meet both the boundary conditions and optics requirements. In this paper, we will present a design option for these ATS/STA transfer lines.

As part of the ALS-U design, bunches with small charge will be added to the accumulator ring in a manner that initially leaves both the stored and injected bunches displaced from the nominal orbit. While the beam current is below instability thresholds, transient effects due to the combination of short-range wake fields and large initial displacements can have an impact on injection efficiency. In this paper, the impact of wake fields on the two bunches is detailed using the elegant simulation code, and different techniques to optimize the injection efficiency are explored.

The simulation codes Elegant* and Accelerator Toolbox (AT)** are both in common use for the study of particle accelerators and light sources. They use different software platforms and have different capabilities, so there is a strong motivation to be able to switch from one version to another to achieve different goals. In addition, it is useful to directly compare results for benchmarking studies. We discuss differences in tracking methods and results for various elements, and explore the impact on simulations performed with lattices designed for the ALS-U. In addition to single-particle tracking, global properties such as chromaticity, dynamics aperture, momentum aperture and beam lifetime are also investigated. We have also developed scripts to translate AT lattices into elegant lattice files to facilitate comparisons.

  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 ALS-U light source will implement on-axis swap-out injection of individual trains employing an accumulator between the booster and storage rings. The accumulator ring design is a twelve period triple-bend achromat that will be installed along the inner circumference of the storage-ring tunnel. A non-conventional injection scheme will be utilized for top-off off-axis injection from the booster into the accumulator ring meant to accommodate a relatively narrow vacuum-chamber aperture while maximizing injection efficiency. The scheme incorporates three dipole kickers distributed over three sectors, with two kickers perturbing the stored beam and the third affecting both the stored and the injected beam trajectories. This paper describes this ‘‘3DK’’ injection scheme, how it was chosen, designed and optimized, and how we evaluated its fitness as a solution for booster-to-accumulator ring injection against alternate injection schemes.
