  The ESRF operates a 6 GeV 4th generation light source, the ESRF-EBS. This storage ring is the first to implement the Hybrid Multi-Bend Achromat lattice (HMBA). The HMBA lattice provides a reduction of the horizontal emittance of approximately a factor 30 with respect to the former Double Bend Achromat (DBA) structure, considerably improving the brilliance and transverse coherence of the ESRF accelerator complex while maintaining large horizontal acceptance and excellent lifetime performance. In this report, the characteristics of the HMBA lattice will be reviewed and the beam commissioning results and first operation experience of the new ESRF storage ring will be presented.

  Motivated by the study of collective effects in small systems with oxygen-oxygen (O-O) collisions, and improvements to the understanding of high-energy cosmic ray interactions from proton-oxygen (p-O) collisions, a short LHC oxygen run during Run 3 has been proposed. This article presents estimates for the obtainable luminosity performance in these two running modes based on simulations of a typical fill. The requested integrated luminosity, projected beam conditions, data-taking and commissioning times are considered and a running scenario is proposed.

Successful operation of large scale particle accelerators depends on the precise correction of unavoidable magnet field or alignment errors present in the machine. In the LHC Run 2, local linear coupling in the Interaction Regions (IR) has been proven to have a severe impact on beam size and hence the luminosity - up to a 50% decrease -, making its handling a target for Run 3 and High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). However, current measurement methods are not optimised for local IR coupling. In this contribution, an approach to accurately minimise IR local coupling based on correlated external variables such as the |C-| is proposed. The validity of the method is demonstrated through simulations and benchmarked against theoretical values, such as Resonance Driving Terms (RDTs) and Ripken parameters.

  Diffraction limited light sources will use very strong focusing elements to achieve their emittance goal. The beam will therefore be more sensitive to magnet field and alignment errors. Impact of errors on the lattice proposed for the SOLEIL upgrade was studied with the Accelerator Toolbox (AT) code. The performance achieved with the imperfect lattice will be presented. In particular the effect of girders misalignment was also accounted for. As the lattice uses a large number of permanent magnets for the beam bending as well as the focusing, challenges arise in terms of beam correction. The correctors and BPMs location and number will be investigated to maximize their efficiency, and corrector magnet strength required to obtain a closed orbit will be studied. The commissioning strategy, and in particular the method used to achieve the first turns and a stored beam in the machine will also be exposed.

  The formula relevant for linear optics design of synchrotrons are derived systematically from first principles, i.e., an exercise in Hamiltonian dynamics. Equipped with these, the relevant use cases are then captured; for a streamlined approach. To enable professionals, i.e., software engineers, to efficiently prototype & architect a CAD tool available to mechanical engineers since the mid-1960s. In other words, robust design of a modern synchrotron is an exercise in/pursuit of the art of Engineering-Science.

  At Diamond Light Source we are working on the upgrade towards a machine aimed at a factor 20 reduction in emittance and an increase of the capacity for beamlines. Crucially the success of the programme depends on the ability to inject and capture the electrons in the storage ring, and finally reach control of beam alignment and the linear optics. The paper presents the series of strategies adopted to achieve the commissioning of the machine, from the threading procedure ensuring the first turn of the electron beam, to the orbit corrections in the storage ring. Beam based alignment of the quadrupoles and skew quadrupoles is illustrated and restoration of the linear optics (LOCO) for the storage ring is presented. Main performance parameters (Dynamic Apertures, Injection Efficiency and Lifetime) are calculated to evaluate the performance of the commissioned lattices.

MOPAB079 Experience of the First Six Years Operations and Plans in NSlS-II operation, cavity, feedback, vacuum 308
 
  • G.M. Wang
    BNL, Upton, New York, USA
 
  NSLS-II is a 3 GeV third-generation synchrotron light source at BNL. The storage ring was commissioned in 2014 and began its routine operations in the December of the same year. Since then, we have been continuously installing and commissioning new insertion devices, their front-ends, and beamlines. At this point, the facility hosts 28 operating beamlines from various radiation sources, including damping wiggler, IVU, EPU, 3PW, and bending magnets for infrared beamlines. Over the past six years, the storage ring performance continuously improved, including 500 mA with limited insertion devices close due to RF power limitation and routinely 400 mA top off operation, >95% operation reliability, maintenance of beam motion short- and long-term stability. In this paper, we report NSLS-II accelerator operations experience and plans for future facility developments.

  The ESRF 352 MHz Radio Frequency (RF) system has been upgraded and tailored to the new 4th Generation Extremely Brilliant Source EBS, that was installed in 2019 and commissioned in 2020. The five former five-cell cavities were replaced with 13 single cell strongly HOM damped cavities that were developed in house, 10 of which are powered from existing 1 MW klystron transmitters. The remaining three cavities are individually fed by three 150 kW solid state amplifiers. All this required a reconstruction in record time of an elaborate WR2300 waveguide network. The low level RF system as well as the cavity and transmitter control system have been rebuilt. The RF design, commissioning and operation experience will be reported, including plans for a 4th harmonic RF system for bunch lengthening to further improve the performance of the new EBS ring.

  The Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring ELENA is a small synchrotron recently constructed and commissioned to decelerate antiprotons injected from the Antiproton Decelerator AD with a kinetic energy of 5.3 MeV down to 100 keV. Controlled deceleration in the synchrotron, equipped with an electron cooler to reduce losses and generate dense bunches, allows the experiments, typically capturing the antiprotons in traps and manipulating them further, to improve the trapping efficiency by one to two orders of magnitude. During 2018, bunches with an energy of 100 keV with parameters close to nominal have been demonstrated, and first beams have been provided to an experiment in a new experimental zone. The magnetic transfer lines from the AD to the experiments have been replaced by electrostatic lines from ELENA. Commissioning of the new transfer lines and, in parallel, studies to better understand the ring with H beams from a dedicated source, have started in autumn 2020. The first 100 keV antiproton physics run using ELENA will start in late summer 2021.

MedAustron is a cancer treatment center in Austria providing proton and carbon ion beams to three clinical and one non-clinical research beam lines. The slow extraction of particles from the synchrotron follows a third order resonance extraction scheme. Currently, for every change of extraction energy a new spill needs to be generated. Besides the beam-on time of the particle delivery, every spill is also comprised of non-delivery time components e.g. the multiturn injection, acceleration or magnet conditioning. For small tumor target volumes, this non-delivery time is the major contribution to the overall treatment time. A dedicated performance improvement project (supported with a grant from the state of lower Austria) was executed with the goal to reduce these non-delivery times without affecting important clinical beam parameters such as the beam size or penetration depth. The implemented reduction of the non-delivery time >50% could be achieved, resulting in beam-on time reductions for reference treatment plans between 25% (largest proton PTV) and 58% (smallest carbon PTV). Results of commissioning efforts, technical details and the achieved optimizations will be presented.

  XiPAF (Xi’an 200MeV Proton Application Facility) is a project to fulfill the need for the experimental simulation of the space radiation environment. It comprises a 7 MeV H linac, a 60-230 MeV proton synchrotron, and experimental stations. The Installation of the synchrotron, beamline and one experimental station were completed at the end of December 2019, and commissioning has just begun. Circulating beam around the synchrotron was observed on the first day of operation, and now 10-200 MeV proton beam directly extracted from the synchrotron had been transported to the experimental station for user experiments. The results of the commissioning and data analysis are presented in this paper.

  The 1.6GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a high-power pulsed proton machine aiming for 500kW output beam power. Now, the routine output beam power has been increased to 100kW. However, the horizontal bare orbit in the ring is large (15mm) and the number of correctors is small, which brings great challenges to the ramp-up of beam power. It is found that the bare orbit in AC mode is 3-4mm larger than that in DC mode. The reason is that the AC dipoles field error is larger than DC dipoles field error. Therefore, it is proposed to sort dipoles again according to the AC dipoles field error. In order to reduce the risk of beam commissioning, fewer magnets should to be moved to achieve smaller orbit. The best results of moving two to six magnets were calculated. After sorting, the orbit can be reduced by 3-4mm, which reduces the difficulty of orbit correction.

  In order to study the emittance evolution of the circulating beam in the fast-cycling synchrotron (RCS) of the Chinese Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS), parameter measurements of the beam extracted at different times were carried out. The measurements were mainly based on wire-scanners mounted in RCS to target transport line (RTBT) for beam profile measurement, and different methods were applied in the solution processes. The emittance and C.S parameters of the extracted beam at different times were obtained and studied, which provided an important reference basis for the beam commissioning of RCS. The beam envelope along the RTBT has been matched and re-measured, which was in good agreement with the design optics.

The MYRRHA project aims at coupling a 600 MeV proton accelerator to a subcritical fission core operating at a thermal power of 60 MW. The nominal proton beam for this ADS has an intensity of 4 mA and is delivered in a quasi-CW mode. Phase 1 of the project will realize a 100 MeV, 4 mA superconducting linac with the mission of ensuring the ADS requirements in terms of reliability and fault tolerance. As part of the reliability optimization program the integrated prototyping of the MINERVA injector is ongoing. The front-end of the injector is composed of an ECR proton source, a 2.6 m long LEBT (low energy beam transport line) and a four-rod RFQ accelerating the beam to 1.5 MeV. The present contribution focuses on the current beam tests on the RFQ, including beam matching, RF conditioning, assessment of the cavities’ performances and accelerated beam characterisation.

  DESIR is the low-energy part of the SPIRAL2 ISOL facility under construction at GANIL. The high-resolution mass separator (HRS) included in DESIR is a 180 degree symmetric online separator with two 90 degree magnetic dipole sections arranged with electrostatic quadrupoles, sextupoles and a multipole on the mid plane. The HRS is now completely mounted at CENBG and under commissioning for the next 2 to 3 years before its transfer at the entrance of the DESIR facility. The objective is to test, characterise and correct all HRS elements contributing to the higher order aberration by performing experimental measurements and comparing them with the results from different simulation tools. The recently mounted pepperpot-type emittance-meter will allow us to observe the emittance figures and dynamically tune the multipole to improve the optical parameters of the HRS. We will present the first results concerning the hexapolar correction with the multipole, the associated emittance measurements and the resolution currently achieved.

AXSIS (Attosecond X-ray Science: Imaging and Spectroscopy) is a compact, accelerator-driven X-ray source currently under construction at DESY Hamburg. It comprises a THz-powered electron gun and THz-driven linac for all-optical electron extraction and acceleration to several MeV with the goal of providing X-rays generated by inverse Compton scattering for photon science experiments. For the commissioning and characterisation of the THz gun and linac the facility includes a dedicated accelerator testing area, for which an electron diagnostic beamline has been designed and is currently under construction. The challenges imposed by the AXSIS project on the development of the diagnostics beamline are the wide ranges of bunch charge (15 fC to 3 pC) and energy (5 MeV to 20 MeV) expected from the THz-driven accelerator as well as the limited available space of only ca. 2.5 metres length. In this contribution we present an overview of the design and the current commissioning status of the electron diagnostic beamline as well as plans for future steps.

According to the beam physical parameters, graphite is selected to stop the beam directly, and oxygen-free copper which is just behind the graphite as the thermal conductive material. By the analysis and comparison of the target type and cooling efficiency, the single slant target is adopted. The incident angle between the target surface and the beam is set as 10°, meanwhile a new waterfall type water-cooling structure with parallel tunnels is designed to improve the cooling efficiency. The finite element software ANSYS is used for thermal analysis of the model, by which the diameter and interval of water cooling tunnels are optimized. The faraday cup discussed in this paper is finally successfully installed in the beam commissioning line and went well.

  For the planned antiproton experiments at FAIR a dedicated proton injector Linac is currently under construction. It will be connected via the old UNILAC transfer beamline to SIS18 and has a length of ~30 m. The Linac will accelerate protons up to a final energy of 68 MeV, at a pulse length of 35 µs and a maximum repetition rate of 4 Hz. It will operate at 325 MHz and consists of a new so called "Ladder" RFQ type, followed by a chain of CH-cavities, partially coupled by rf-coupling cells. We have worked out a diagnostics system, which allows detailed measurement and study of all beam parameters during commissioning and later during regular operation. The diagnostics devices will - in a first step - be installed on a diagnostics testbench for stepwise commissioning. We present the concepts for Linac and testbench with some special emphasis on energy measurements with spectrometer and SEM Grid profile measurements.

  The LHC injectors Upgrade (LIU) program has been fully implemented during the second long shutdown (LS2), which took place in 2019-20. In this context, new or upgraded beam instrumentation was developed to cope with H beam in LINAC4 and the new Proton Synchrotron Booster (PSB) injection systems which would provide high brightness proton beams in the rest of the injector complex. After a short overview of the newly installed diagnostics, the main focus of this paper will move to the instruments already commissioned with the beam. This will include LINAC4 diagnostics, the PSB H0/H monitor, the PSB Trajectory Measurement System, and the PS beam gas ionization monitor. In addition, particular emphasis will be given to the first operational experience with the new generation of fast wire scanners installed in all injector synchronous.

  For the new ESRF-EBS Storage Ring (SR), HOM damped RF cavities were needed to cope with the reduced thresholds for Longitudinal Coupled Bunch Instabilities (LCBI). The 352 MHz cavities were designed at the ESRF based on an improved version of the 500 MHz EU/ALBA/BESSY structures. A short description of the cavity design will be presented as well as an overview of the fabrication, the preparation and the performance of 13 such cavities for the ESRF-EBS SR. A study of the impedance of a whole cavity equipped with its ancillaries (HOM absorbers, ion pump and tuner) will be presented. One of the three HOM absorbers, the smaller one on top of the cavity, was finally not installed on the machine. The reasons and a detailed analysis in terms of HOM impedances that justifies this choice will be reported.

This poster will report on the design, fabrication, and operation status of the new high gradient C-band TM01 mode launchers for the high gradient C-band test stand at LANL. Modern applications require accelerators with optimized cost of construction and operation, naturally calling for high-gradient acceleration. At LANL we commissioned a test stand powered by a 50 MW, 5.712 GHz Canon klystron. The test is capable of conditioning single cell accelerating cavities for operation at surface electric fields up to 300 MV/m. The rf field is coupled into the cavity from a WR187 waveguide through a mode launcher that converts the fundamental mode of the rectangular waveguide into the TM01 mode of the circular waveguide. Several designs for mode launchers were considered and the final design was chosen based on a compromise between the field enhancements, bandwidth, and simplicity and cost of fabrication. Four mode launchers were fabricated and cold-tested. Two mode launchers with the best transmission characteristics were installed and conditioned to high power. The presentation will report achieved gradients, breakdown probabilities, and other characteristics measured during operation.

Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin is currently finalizing the construction of the demonstrator Energy Recovery Linac bERLinPro *. The first part, which will be commissioned, will be the injector consisting of a superconducting RF (SRF) photo-injector (Gun) and a Booster module made up of three two cell SRF cavities. For the latter the 2.3 MeV beam from the gun needs to be accelerated to 6.5 MeV, whereas one Booster cavity will be operated in zero-crossing mode for bunch-shortening. Thus, for the final stage with a 100 mA beam, the twin power couplers of the Booster cavity need to deliver up to 120 kW in travelling continous wave (CW) mode at 1.3 GHz each. To achieve that, a dedicated coupler conditioning setup was installed and commissioned. Here, we will present the first conditioning results with the bERLinPro Booster fundamental power couplers in pulsed and CW regime.

  The High Energy Photon Source (HEPS) is 6 GeV, kilometer-scale, 4th generation storage ring light source. The lattice has an ultralow emittance and strong focusing such that the beam dynamics is very sensitive to the magnet misalignments and other error sources. Getting the first turn and establishing the closed orbit is essential for accelerator commissioning. This paper describes a simulation algorithm for achieving the first turn commission based on the latest HEPS storage ring lattice. We developed a new accelerator toolbox (AT)-based program for automatic optimizing the first turn commissioning. The algorithm and simulation results will be presented in this paper.

We present the top notch design of the proton therapy gantry made of permanent magnets with very strong focusing. This represents a superb solution fulfilling all cancer treatment requirements for all energies without changing any parameters. The proton energy range is between 60-250 MeV. The beam arrives to the patient focused at each required treatment energy. The scanning system is place between the end of the gantry and the patient. There are multiple advantages of this design: easy operation, no significant electrical power - just for the correction system, low weight, low cost. The design is based on the recent very successful commissioning of the permanent magnet ERL ’CBETA’ at Cornell University.

  In the framework of the CERN Large Hadron Collider Injectors Upgrade (LIU) Project, the Proton Synchrotron (PS) has been equipped with two new movable Internal Dumps (PSID), each of them capable of absorbing particle beams of an energy of up to 100 kJ. These dumps replace the old Internal Dumps, which have been operated in the accelerator complex since their installation in 1975 until their decommissioning and removal from the machine during the second LHC Long Shut down (LS2). This contribution will address the construction and testing phases of the new PSIDs, including the assembly of the dump core, its actuation system and the respective shielding, mechanical running-in tests, metrology adjustments, Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) and impedance acceptance tests. The described installation work was completed successfully, and the new generation Dumps are currently operational in the PS machine.

  The ESRF-EBS storage ring, successfully commissioned in 2020, operates the HMBA lattice, first proposed in * and then adopted in several recent upgrade programs. The successful and timely commissioning of the storage is in large part due to the excellent optics control achieved over that period. Design performance were obtained with lower than predicted correction strengths, localized for the most part in the vicinity of sextupoles. This remarkable behavior is not only the result of the corrective actions taken during the commissioning but also of the extremely accurate conception and alignment of the machine. This report summarizes the steps that lead to the present performances and discusses their stability over time.

  Solaris is a third generation light source operating since 2015 in Kraków, Poland. Between 2015 and 2018 the synchrotron as well as two beamlines were commissioned. During commissioning phases, the good performance of Solaris storage ring has been reached. The beam optics was brought close to the design one. Since October 2018 Solaris storage ring is in the user operation mode. Moreover, two other beamlines with the elliptically polarized undulators used as source were installed and are under commissioning now. In 2020 the total beam availability of 93% was reached with the average circulating current of 400 mA and the total lifetime of 15 h. Over last two years few improvements of the storage ring were done to optimize the storage ring performance. The Landau cavities were tuned to improve the Touschek lifetime and suppress the instabilities. Two diagnostics beamlines were installed and commissioned allowing for the beam sizes in three planes and emittance measurements. The storage ring optics was fine-tuned to increase the dynamic aperture.

  FLASH2 is one of the two SASE (Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission) undulator beamlines lines comprising variable gap undulators to produce radiation in the XUV and soft X-ray regime at FLASH. Downstream of the SASE undulators the beamline is currently undergoing a major redesign. During shutdowns in summer 2020 and winter 2021 two PolariX TDSs (Polarizable X-band Transverse Deflecting Structure) were installed, as well as additional diagnostics, to monitor the longitudinal phase space density of the electron bunches. Additionally, an afterburner undulator will be integrated in the next shutdown to produce circularly polarized light with wavelengths down to 1.39 nm. In this paper, we will present the modifications that were and will be made to the electron beamline in the course of this redesign.

  U400M isochronous cyclotron was created on the base of U300 classic cyclotron and is under operation at FLNR, JINR since 1996. At the present time the cyclotron electromagnet with 4 meter pole diameter needs a reconstruction that includes a replacement of magnet main coil, corrections of the magnetic field at the central region and at the extraction radius. For measurements and shimming of cyclotron magnetic field the automatic mapping system, based on 14 Hall probes, will be created.

  The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a high intensity hadron pulse facility which achieved the design goal in March, 2020. The Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) is the important part of the CSNS which accelerates the proton beam from 80MeV to 1.6GeV. During the high intensity commissioning of the RCS, an local orbit correction application was developed. Because of the good performance of the local orbit controlling at the ramping stage, the beam loss was optimized effectively in the process of the acceleration. In the paper, the efficiency of the beam loss optimization during the acceleration is given and the future plans were proposed.

  The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is an accelerator-based science facility. CSNS is designed to accelerate proton beam pulses to 1.6 GeV kinetic energy, striking a solid metal target to produce spallation neutrons. CSNS has two major accelerator systems, a linear accelerator (80 MeV Linac) and a 1.6 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron(RCS). The RCS accumulates and accelerates the proton beam to 1.6 GeV and then extracts the beam to the target at the repetition rate of 25 Hz. The Beam commissioning of CSNS/RCS had been started since April 2017. The most important issue in high-power beam commissioning is the beam loss control, as well as the control of induced activities, to meet the requirement of manual maintenance. A series of beam loss optimization work had been done to reduce the uncontrolled beam loss. At the end of February 2020, the CSNS reached the design beam power of 100 kW with very low uncontrolled beam loss.

  The Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a high intensity proton accelerator. The acceleration system consists of eight ferrite loaded cavities. The RCS is the space charge dominant machine and it is mitigated through the bunch factor optimization in the beam commissioning, so the injected beam will occupy a larger bucket size and unavoidable mismatch with the bucket, thus the dipole oscillation is excited. The phase loop scheme is designed to restrict the oscillation in the RF system, but the transmission efficiency is reduced by the phase loop and the bunch factor also increases, so the phase loop scheme is studied. To keep the phase loop but also maintain the transmission efficiency, we optimized the original phase loop scheme, but the beam loss still increases small when the loop on.

  During the second long shutdown (LS2) of the accelerator complex at CERN, the access system of the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) was completely renovated. This complex project was motivated by the technical obsolescence and lack of sufficient redundancy in the existing system, as well as by the need for homogenisation of technologies and practices across the different machines at CERN. The new Personnel Protection System includes 16 state-of-the-art access points making sure that only fully identified, trained and authorised personnel can enter the facility and an interlock system with a rationalized number of safety chains designed to meet the current safety standards. The control part is based on Siemens 1500 series of programmable logic controllers, complemented by a technologically diverse relay logic loop for the critical safety functions. This paper presents the new system and the design choices made to permit fast installation in a period where the access system itself was heavily used to allow vast upgrades of the SPS accelerator and its infrastructure. It also covers the verification and validation methodology and lessons learned during the commissioning phase.

TUPAB316 New Operational Quantities for Radiation Protection by ICRU and ICRP: Impact on Workplaces at Accelerators radiation, operation, photon, target 2231
 
  • Th. Otto, M. Widorski
    CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
 
  In radiation protection, Effective Dose E quantifies stochastic radiation detriment. E is defined as a weighted sum of absorbed dose to organs and tissues and cannot be measured directly. ICRU has defined operational quantities to measure effective dose approximately, such as Ambient dose equivalent H*(10). At high energies, the estimates provided by H*(10) deviate strongly from effective dose. In 2020, ICRU and ICRP have recommended new operational quantities for external radiation with a definition close to the one of effective dose, and published an extensive collection of conversion coefficients from particle fluence to the new quantities (1). Ambient dose H* serves for operational monitoring purposes. The new definition alleviates the observed discrepancies of H*(10) with effective dose. In this paper, we present a numerical study of effective dose E, ambient dose equivalent H*(10) and ambient dose H* in radiation fields at workplaces at proton- and electron accelerators. These places include locations behind primary shielding, in access mazes and in the vicinity of activated accelerator components.

One of the significant causes of residual losses in superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities is trapped magnetic flux. The flux trapping mechanism depends on many factors that include cool-down conditions, surface preparation techniques, and ambient magnetic field orientation. Suitable diagnostic tools are not yet available to quantitatively correlate such factors’ effect on the flux trapping mechanism. A magnetic field scanning system (MFSS) consisting of AMR sensors, fluxgate magnetometers, or Hall probes is recently commissioned to scan the local magnetic field of trapped vortices around 1.3 GHz single-cell SRF cavities. In this contribution, we will present results from sensitivity calibration and the first tests of AMR sensors in the MFSS.

As part of the LHC Injector Upgrade program a complete overhaul of the Super Proton Synchrotron Radio-Frequency (RF) system took place. New cavities have been installed for which the solid-state technology was chosen to deliver a combined RF power of 2 MW from 2560 RF amplifiers. This strategy promises high availability as the system continues operation when some of the amplifiers fail. This study quantifies the operational availability that can be achieved with this new installation. The evaluation is based on a Monte Carlo simulation of the system using the novel AvailSim4 simulation software. A model based on lifetime estimations of the RF modules is compared against data from early operational experience. Sensitivity analyses have been made, that give insight to the chosen operational scenario. With the increasing use of solid-state RF power amplifiers, the findings of this study provide a useful reference for future application of this technology in particle accelerators.

The scheme of using high-efficiency magnetrons to drive radiofrequency accelerators has been demonstrated at 2450 MHz in CW mode *. Magnetron test stands at JLab and GA have been set up to further test the noise figure and the locking speed of the injection phase-lock method. For higher power applications, power combining experiments using a TM010 cavity-type combiner and a magic tee for the binary combiner while using a single clean injection signal has been carried out at 2450 MHz. The frequency pulling effect between the magnetron and a low-Q cavity has been shown to enhance the frequency locking bandwidth compared to the injection phase-lock alone. The principle has been studied by the equivalent circuit simulation, analytical model, and finally confirmed experimentally on the magnetrons. Due to the pandemic delay in 2020, the equivalent high power tests using a 75kW, 915MHz industrial magnetron will be done in 2021 and will be reported in a future paper.

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) includes two types of half wave SC resonators (HWR) operating at 322MHz. The fundamental power couplers used to transmit RF power into the HWRs commonly suffer from multipacting which can result in long conditioning times. A bias tee can be used to apply a high voltage to the couplers to help alleviate multipacting. A production version of the bias tee was commissioned for use at FRIB. The bias tee went through several design revisions to diagnose and correct thermal dissipation issues. This paper will discuss details of design and challenges faced during production validation of the bias tee.

  A new insertion device, Superconducting Multipole Wiggler (SMPW) with the peak field strength of 3.5 T, was installed in the storage ring of Siam Photon Source as a radiation source for a new hard X-ray beamline. Cool-down process, as well as magnet training, was performed with careful tuning of liquid helium filling procedure for efficient management of liquid helium supply. The filling procedure was also optimized for safe operation of the magnet. The SMPW commission-ing was successfully carried out with electron beam and the effect of SMPW on electron beam dynamics was observed. It can be minimized using quadrupole magnets and horizontal/vertical correctors.

  To increase beam energy in the CLEAR facility at CERN and study the CLIC accelerating structure prototype in operating conditions, the first X-band test facility at CERN was upgraded in 2020. Both, the acquisition and software systems at X-band test stand 1 (Xbox1) were upgraded to exhibit low phase noise which is relevant to klystron based CLIC and to the use of crab cavities in the beam delivery system. The new LLRF uses down-conversion which necessitates a local oscillator which can be produced by two different methods. The first is a PLL, a commonly used technique which has been previously employed at the other X-band facilities at CERN. The second is a novel application of a single sideband up-convertor. The up-convertor system has demonstrated reduced phase noise when compared with the PLL. The commissioning of the new system began in late 2020 with the conditioning of a 50 MW Klystron. Measurements of the quality of the new LLRF will be shown. These will compare the PLL and up-convertor with particular attention on the quality of the phase measurements. Also, a preliminary study of phase shifts in the waveguide network due to temperature changes will be presented.

We developed a new method for tuning the undulator phase errors by shimming the undulator gap profile mechanically. First, the phase errors of a device are calculated based on the initial field measurement; then the desired field strength modulation along the device length is derived from the phase errors; and finally, the gap profile is mechanically shimmed to produce the desire field strength modulation. The method has been successfully applied to the tuning of many new and reused APS Upgrade (APS-U) hybrid permanent magnet undulators. The method is especially effective for tuning the legacy undulators with large phase errors. For instance, an old 33-mm-period undulator with a 23 degree initial rms phase error largely due to radiation damage has been tuned to better than 3 degrees.

The Advanced Photon Source (APS) is undergoing a major upgrade to its storage ring. The APS Upgrade (APS-U) project plans to build over 40 new hybrid permanent magnet undulators (HPMUs) and rebuild over 20 existing HPMUs. To meet the APS-U undulator requirements, the quality of the undulator magnetic field needs to be fine-tuned to the specifications. The traditional methods that depend on the tuning specialist experience are not desirable for tuning large quantities of undulators. We developed algorithms that automate the tuning of permanent magnet undulators. For tuning of the undulator trajectory and phase, the algorithms optimize the tuning parameters with differential evolution-based global optimization. The algorithms have been successfully applied to over 18 APS HPMUs. The results and experiences of the tuning are reported in detail.

In this paper, firstly, the application and service life of the main stripping foil for the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) were introduced. The stripping efficiency of the main stripping foil have been measured and studied. Then, by using the codes FLUKA and ORBIT, the particle scattering of the main stripping foil has been simulated and the theoretical residual doses in the injection region caused by the foil scattering were obtained. By weekly measurement of the residual doses in the injection region, the actual residual doses near the main stripping foil were given. The residual doses comparison results have confirmed that the particle scattering of the main stripping foil is the most important source of the residual doses in the injection region.

  Digital models have been developed over a long time for preparing accelerator commissioning next to benchmarking theory predictions to machine measurements. These digital models are nowadays being realized as digital shadows or digital twins. Accelerator commissioning requires periodic setup and review of the machine status. Furthermore, different measurements are only practical by comparison to the machine model (e.g. beam based alignment). In this paper we describe the architecture chosen for our models, describe the framework Bluesky for measurement orchestration and report on our experience exemplifying on dynamic aperture scans. Furthermore we describe our plans to extend the models applied to BESSY~II and MLS to the currently planned machines BESSY~III and MLS~II.

  The installation of the Sirius accelerators was completed in 2019. The vacuum installation of the booster took place in October 2018. The booster vacuum chambers were baked-out ex-situ and the vacuum pumps, gauges and valves were assembled prior to the installation in the tunnel. The vacuum installation of the storage ring took place from May to August 2019. The vacuum system of the storage ring is based on fully NEG-coated chambers and each sector was baked-out in-situ for NEG activation. The average static pressure in the booster is in the range of low 10-9 mbar. In the storage ring, 95% of the pressures are in 10-11 mbar range and 5% are in 10-10 mbar range. The first beam was stored in the storage ring in December 2019. The vacuum system has been performing well, and an effective beam cleaning effect has been observed for the NEG-coated chambers. At a beam dose of 70 A-h, the storage ring already achieved the design normalized average dynamic pressure of 3x10 12 mbar/mA. A summary of the installation and the commissioning status of the vacuum system will be presented.

  LNLS has been commissioning Sirius, a 4th-generation synchrotron light source. The commissioning of the beamlines has been mainly done by using planar undulator, which uses in-house built aluminum vacuum chambers with ultra-high vacuum tight bimetallic flanges. In order to manufacture these flanges, diffusion bonded joints of AA6061 aluminum alloy to AISI 316LN stainless steel were developed. Diffusion bonding was carried out at 400-500°C for 45-60 min, applying a load of 9.8MPa in a vacuum furnace. Also, the surface preparation for Al and SS was investigated. SEM observation revealed that an 1-3 µm reaction layer was formed at the AA6061/Ni-plated interface. The intermetallic compound Al3Ni was identified in the reaction layer. The obtained Al/SS joints showed mean ultimate strength of 84 MPa, with the fracture occurring in the Al/reaction layer interface. Bake-out cycles followed by leak tests were carried out to validate the process and approve their use on the planar undulator vacuum chambers. Two undulators with Al/SS flanges have been installed and are under operation in the storage ring.

  Sirius is a 3 GeV fourth generation light source under commissioning by the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS). Compact Linear Polarizing Undulators with magnet vertical aperture of 8 mm have been used for the commissioning of some beam lines. Extruded aluminum vacuum chambers having small vertical aperture of 6 mm and horizontal aperture of 40 mm, were built. This paper details the design and manufacturing processes of a complete chamber and its installation procedure at the storage ring. Challenges regarding the precision machining of the 0.5 mm wall thickness, TIG welding for aluminum, NEG coating for small apertures will also be presented.

  Collimator jaws for SuperKEKB main ring, which is an electron-positron collider, installed to suppress background noise in a particle detector complex named Belle II. In high current operations with 500 mA or more, jaws were occasionally damaged by hitting abnormal beams. This trouble is a low-frequency, which is once-a-commissioning period currently, but high-consequence one because we are not able to apply high voltage on detectors in Belle II by high backgrounds. At this moment this jaw damage event occurs, we observed pressure burst near the collimator with the beam abort, there was no sign of beam oscillation indicating instability, and the beam intensity suddenly decreased a few turns before the abort. I predict that the cause of this jaw damage was that a sudden change of the beam energy by the collision with dust. In this paper, the explanation of the observation result of this events and tracking simulation of beam colliding with dust are reported.

  Antiprotons are produced at CERN at the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) Target Area by impacting 26 GeV/c proton beams onto a fixed target. Further collection, momentum selection, and transport of the secondary particles - including antiprotons - towards the AD ring is realised by a 400 kA pulsed magnetic horn and a set of magnetic dipoles and quadrupoles. A major consolidation of the area - in operation since the 80s - has taken place during the CERN Long Shutdown 2 (2019-2021). Among other activities, such upgrade included: (i) Installation of a new air-cooled target design and manufacturing of a new batch of magnetic horns, including a surface pulsing test-bench for their validation and fine-tuning (ii) Installation of a new positioning and maintenance system for the target and horn (iii) Refurbishment and decontamination of the Target Area and its equipment, (iv) Construction of a new surface service building to house new nuclear ventilation systems. This contribution presents an overview of such activities and lesson learnt. In addition, it provides the latest results from refractory metals R&D for the antiproton target and a summary of the recommissioning and optimization plans.

  The ATS of an emergency power system in Utility Building II has operated over 18 years; in recent years the failure rate is gradually increasing because of aged components. To improve old switches, schemes of upgrading and developing new and efficient transfer switches have been conducted cautiously. A new device named an Uninterruptible Paralleling Transfer Switch (UPTS) is designed and implemented to replace an existing ATS to enhance the performance to meet the requirements of uninterrupted power transfer. The UPTS can uninterruptedly switch the grid power to emergency power of a backup generator during a planned utility power outage, and also exactly switch emergency power to the grid power uninterruptedly when the utility power is restored. If grid power is unexpectedly lost, UPTS acts like a typical ATS, automatically transferring power from a primary source to a backup source with switching duration a few seconds. A practical UPTS has been assembled and installed in Utility Building II and has performed well effectively to eliminate power-switching transients.

  Taiwan has been suffering from a shortage of natural resources for more than two decades. As stated by the Energy Statistics Handbook 2019 of Taiwan, up to 97.90% of energy supply was imported from abroad. This kind of energy consumption structure is fragile relatively. Not mention to the total domestic energy consumption annual growth rate is 1.97% in twenty years. Either the semiconductor or the integrated circuit-related industry is developed vigorously in Taiwan. All the facts cause us to face the energy problems squarely. Therefore, an energy management system (EnMS) was installed in NSRRC in 2019 to pursue more efficient energy use. With the advantages of the Archive Viewer - a utility supervisory control and data acquisition system in NSRRC, the data of energy use could be traced conveniently and widely. The model of energy use has been built to review periodically, furthermore, it provides us the accordance to replace the degraded equipment and alerts us if the failure occurs.

  In the framework of the HL-LHC project, full-scale integration and operational tests of the superconducting magnet chain, from the inner triplet quadrupoles up to the first separation/recombination dipole, are planned in conditions as similar as possible to the final set-up in the LHC tunnel. The IT String includes all of the required systems for operation at nominal conditions, such as vacuum, cryogenics, warm and cold powering equipment, and protection systems. The IT String is intended to be both an assembly, and an integration test stand, and a full rehearsal of the systems working in unison. It will, closely reproducing the mechanical, electrical, and thermo-hydraulic interfaces of the final installation, as well as allowing a full rehearsal of the systems working in unison. This paper describes the conceptual design, the test stand’s reference configuration, and the main goals. It also summarizes the status of the main activities, including the detailed design of the test infrastructure, procurement of main equipment, the baseline installation schedule, and major milestones. The first version of the experimental program and the associated planning are also presented.

  Currently, there are 8 Insertion Devices (ID) installed and in operation and 2 new ones to be installed end of 2021 at the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring. In this paper, the first commissioning results of the three newly installed IDs in 2020 will be described. The new IDs are one APPLE II for SoftiMAX beamline and two In-vacuum Undulators (IVU) for the DanMAX and CoSAXS beamlines. The mitigation scheme adopted to reduce undulator-like radiation from BALDER in-vacuum wiggler will be discussed. Two new IVUs with a period length of 17 mm and 18 mm for the ForMAX and MicroMAX beamlines will be installed during the winter shutdown of 2021-2022. Both IDs have 3 m lengths and a minimum gap of 4 mm. In this paper, the magnetic measurement results will be presented in terms of the achieved field quality and phase error.

THPAB055 Reconstruction of Linear Optics Observables Using Supervised Learning optics, simulation, target, operation 3875
 
  • E. Fol, H. Garcia, R. Tomás García
    CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
 
  In the LHC, most of the optical functions can be obtained from turn-by-turn beam centroid data. However, the measurement of such observables as β* and the dispersion function require special dedicated techniques and additional operational time. In this work, we propose an alternative approach to estimate these observables using supervised machine learning, in case the dedicated measurements are not available but turn-by-turn data are. The performance of developed estimators is demonstrated on LHC simulations. Comparison to traditional techniques for the computation of beta-function will be also provided.

THPAB068 Denoising of Optics Measurements Using Autoencoder Neural Networks optics, network, simulation, controls 3915
 
  • E. Fol, R. Tomás García
    CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
 
  Noise artefacts can appear in optics measurements data due to instrumentation imperfections or uncertainties in the applied analysis methods. A special type of semi-supervised neural networks, autoencoders, are widely applied to denoising tasks in image and signal processing as well as to generative modeling. Recently, an autoencoder-based approach for denoising and reconstruction of missing data has been developed to improve the quality of phase measurements obtained from harmonic analysis of LHC turn-by-turn data. We present the results achieved on simulations demonstrating the potential of the new method and discuss the effect of the noise in light of optics corrections computed from the cleaned data.

  The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility - Extremely Brilliant Source (ESRF-EBS) is a facility upgrade allowing its scientific users to take advantage of the first high-energy 4th generation light source. In December 2018, after 30 years of operation, the beam stopped for a 12-month shutdown to dismantle the old storage ring and to install the new X-ray source. In December 2019, the first beam was stored and accumulated in the storage ring, allowing the vacuum conditioning and tuning to be started. The beam was delivered to beamlines in March 2020 for their commissioning. On 25 August, the user programme was restarted with beam parameters very close to nominal values. In this report, the milestones and key aspects of the return to user-mode operation are presented and discussed.

The Advanced Photon Source Upgrade (APS-U) project is developing a multi-bend achromat (MBA) lattice at 6.0-GeV beam energy to replace the existing APS storage ring lattice operating at 7.0 GeV. One of the key components of the project is to design, fabricate, and install optimized insertion devices (IDs) for 35 beamlines. A plan was developed to standardize on four new undulator period lengths for 44 new undulators and to reuse 23 existing undulators with four more different period lengths. Early in the Upgrade project we anticipated there would be large challenges in meeting the tight fabrication and tuning schedules so that all undulators would be ready for installation in the upgraded storage ring prior to beam commissioning. With recent developments and techniques used in the magnetic measurement laboratory, we have successfully tuned many of the new and reused undulators to demanding magnetic field requirements. We will report on the tools and techniques used and on results to date.

  Optics measurement from analysis of turn-by-turn BPM data of betatron oscillations excited with a kicker magnet has been employed very successfully in many machines but faces particular challenges in the CERN PSB where BPM to BPM phase advances are sub-optimal for optics reconstruction. Experience using turn-by-turn oscillation data for linear optics measurements during PSB commissioning in2021 is presented, with implications for the prospect of such techniques in the PSB more generally.

Most of the Elliptically Polarizing Undulators (EPUs) at NSLS-II are equipped with current strips (or flat wires), attached to their vacuum chambers. These strips compensate the dynamic field integrals of the EPU to minimize undesirable nonlinear beam dynamics effect that can lead to reduction in injection efficiency and beam lifetime. For each EPU, we measured the field integrals of the insertion device alone, the current strips alone, and both, while creating horizontal bumps of different amplitudes at the straight section to assess the effectiveness of the compensation provided by the design current values for the strips. The commissioning results of these current strips are reported in this article.

  Sirius is a 4th generation 3 GeV synchrotron light source that has just finalised the first commissioning phase at the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) campus in Campinas, Brazil. The large number of process variables and large complexity of the subsystems in this type of machine requires the development of tools to simplify the commissioning and operation of the accelerators. This paper describes some of the high level control tools developed for the accelerators commissioning and future operation.

  The design configuration of the Sirius Light Source RF System is based on two superconducting RF cavities and eight 60 kW solid state amplifiers operating at 500 MHz. The current configuration, based on a 7-cell room temperature cavity, was initially planned for commissioning and initial tests of the beamlines. However, it will have to remain in operation longer than planned. Sirius has been operating in decay mode for beamline tests with an initial current of 70 mA. We present an overview of the first-year operation of the RF system and the preparations for the installation of the two superconducting cavities, which is expected to take place in 2023.

  Within the framework of the LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU) project, the feasibility and design of an upgrade of the existing CERN PS proton injection kicker system have been outlined in previous publications already. This paper describes the adjustments of final design choices, testing, and deployment as well as the validation and commissioning of the new 2 GeV injection kicker system. The upgrade pays particular attention to the reduction of pulse reflections unavoidably induced by a magnet in short circuit mode configuration whilst keeping a fast 104 ns rise and fall time. An adapted thyratron triggering system to reduce jitter and enhance thyratron lifetime is outlined. Additionally, improvements to the magnet entry box and the elimination of SF6 gas in the magnet connection box and the associated pulse transmission lines are discussed.
