Beam-Beam damping of the Ion Instability The electron storage ring of the proposed electron ion collider at BNL has bunch charges as large as 50 nC and bunch spacings as small as 10 ns. For molecules like CO a dangerous buildup of positive ions is possible and a significant fraction of these ions can survive allowable clearing gaps. The instability is thus multi-turn and the weak damping required to stop the ion instabilty with an ideal clearing gap is ineffective here. The beam-beam force is highly nonlinear and a potent source of tune spread. Simulations employing several macro-particles per electron bunch and several ion macroparticles are used to estimate maximum gas densities for some common molecules. A simplified model is introduced and compared with simulations.

Beginning in January of 2019, 8 of the 10 In-Vacuum Undulators installed in the NSLS-II storage ring underwent in-house in-situ control system upgrades allowing for control of the magnetic gap during motion down to the 50 nanometer level with an in-position accuracy of nearly 5 nanometers. Direct linking of Insertion Devices and beamline monochromators is achieved via a fiber interface allowing precise, simultaneous, nonlinear motion of both devices and providing a fast hardware trigger for real-time accurate insertion device and monochromator fly scanning. This presentation will detail the accuracy of motion and its effect on the produced spectra as well as the variation of flux when both insertion device and monochromator are in simultaneous motion.

WEXBB1 Adaptive Machine Learning and Automatic Tuning of Intense Electron Bunches in Particle Accelerators FEL, electron, controls, target 609

  Machine learning and in particular neural networks, have been around for a very long time. In recent years, thanks to growth in computing power, neural networks have reshaped many fields of research, including self driving cars, computers playing complex video games, image identification, and even particle accelerators. In this tutorial, I will first present an introduction to machine learning for beginners and will also touch on a few aspects of adaptive control theory. I will then introduce some problems in particle accelerators and present how they have been approached utilizing machine learning techniques as well as adaptive machine learning approaches, for automatically tuning extremely short and high intensity electron bunches in free electron lasers.

  NSLS-II ring is equipped with state-of-the art beam position monitors (BPMs) which are indispensable in all aspects of machine studies and operations. Among other data, they can provide, on demand, up to 10 seconds of fast-acquisition (FA) data, sampled at ~10 kHz. Analysis of these data in time, frequency and spatial domains provides valuable insights into orbit stability, locations of residual noise sources, performance of feedback systems, etc. In addition, changes in FA signal spectral features are often the earliest indicators of potential equipment problems. This is why we recently implemented an Input / Output Controller (IOC) software that runs during regular user operation, and, once a minute, acquires 10 second buffers of FA data from 180 BPMs around the ring. These buffers are processed to determine the amplitudes and frequencies of the strongest spectral peaks as well as some other measures of fast beam orbit noise. Processed results can be monitored in real time and are also archived for offline analysis and troubleshooting. In this paper we discuss the implementation of this system and the insights we gained from it over about two years of operations.

Orbit stabilization to 10% of the expected small beam sizes for Advanced Photon Source Upgrade (APS-U) requires pushing the state of the art in fast orbit feedback (FOFB) control, both in the spatial domain and in dynamical performance. We are building a Matlab/Simulink fast orbit feedback system model to guide decisions about APS-U fast orbit feedback system implementation and to provide a test bench for optimal-control methodologies and orbit correction algorithms applicable to the APS-U. A transfer function model was built from open-loop frequency-response and step-response measurements of the present APS and subsequently validated against closed-loop measurements. A corresponding model for APS-U fast orbit feedback was generated by substituting measured responses of APS-U prototype corrector magnets and power supplies into this same model. Stabilizing PID gains are designed using model, and simulated dynamic performance of the new controller is validated through experiments.
