| MOPE007 | Measurement of Low-Emittance Beam with Coded Aperture X Ray Optics at CesrTA | 966 |
|
||
|
An x-ray beam size monitor based on coded aperture imaging* has been developed at CesrTA, for the purpose of making bunch-by-bunch, turn-by-turn measurements of low emittance beams. Using low-emittance beam (~44 pm, or 16 microns at the x-ray source point) we have been able to make detailed comparisons between the measured mask response and that predicted by theory, validating our simulations of the mask response. In turn, we demonstrate the ability to measure both integrated and single-bunch turn-by-turn beam sizes and positions for monitoring the progress of the low-emittance tuning of the machine, and for electron-cloud instability-related beam dynamics studies. * J.W.

| MOPE008 | Improved Measurement of Crabbing Angle by a Streak Camera at KEKB | 969 |
|
||
|
Crab cavities were installed in the KEKB rings in order to increase the luminosity. We measured the tilt of the bunches in the x-z plane using streak cameras. In a previous report*, the measured tilt in the HER was 2 times smaller than the expected crabbing angle, while the LER measurement was consistent with that expected. After the streak camera's vertical sweep speed was calibrated, the results were consistent with the expected crabbing angle in both rings. * H. Ikeda et al., PAC07, 4018. |

| MOPE009 | Improvement of the Resolution of SR Interferometer at KEK-ATF Damping Ring | 972 |
|

Some of the improvement were done for an SR interferometer with the Herschelian reflective optics*. Previously, the measured vertical beam size was limited to around 5μm with a double slit separation of 40mm and wavelength of 400nm at the ATF damping ring. Double slit separation was mainly limited to the effective aperture of the optical path between the source point and interferometer. This time, we re-aligned the optical path, and as a result, the effective aperture was increased. Using this re-alignment we can have a double slit separation of up to 60mm. To reduce air turbulence, the optical path was covered with a tight air duct. After these improvements were made, we succeeded in measuring a vertical beam size of 3.4μm with double slit separation of 60mm and wavelength of 550nm, which corresponds to 5pm of the vertical emittance assuming 3m of the beta function. * T.

| MOPE024 | Development of Radiation Registant Optics System for High Intensity Proton Beamline at the J-PARC | 1017 |

Optical beam measurement such as OTR(Optical Transition Radiation), ODR(Optical Diffraction Radiation), gas Cerenkov, and so on is a powerful tool to observe a two-dimensional information of high intensity beam profile, so that this method is widely used at various electron and hadron accelerators. However, high radiation field to damage an optical system gradually becomes a major issue with increasing the beam intensity to explore new physics. Our present effort is devoted to develop a high efficient optical system to resist such high radiation field. We newly designed an optical system composed of two spherical mirrors which do not have any lenses vulnerable to radiation. Detailed optics design and a result of optical performance test will be presented. Also we will report a result of a beam test experiment of this optics system combined with an OTR screen performed at high intensity proton extraction beamline of the J-PARC. |

| TUPE090 | Progress in Construction of Gun Test Facility for Compact ERL | 2335 |
|

Compact ERL (cERL) is a test accelerator to establish accelerator technologies for GeV-class synchrotron light source based on ERL (Energy Recovery Linac), and will be constructed in KEK. It consists of an injector with photo cathode 500 kV DC gun, a merger section, super conducting RF cavities for acceleration and energy recovery, return loops, and a beam dump. To operate and test the photo cathode gun before installing it in the cERL injector, Gun Test Facility is constructing in KEK, AR south experimental hall. The Gun Test Facility has two photo cathode guns, 200 kV gun developed by Nagoya University and new 500 kV gun which is being developed, laser system to be emitted electrons from photo cathode surface, beam transport lines, and a beam diagnostics system. The diagnostics system consists of a double slit emittance measurement system, beam position monitors, transverse profile monitors, and a deflecting cavity to measure the bunch length and the longitudinal profile. In this presentation, the progress in the construction of the Gun Test Facility and the beam dynamics simulation will be presented. |

| WEPEA035 | Test of Hybrid Fill Mode at the Photon Factory Storage Ring | 2564 |
|
||
|
A hybrid fill mode has been tested at the Photon Factory storage ring (PF-ring). The hybrid fill mode consists of a train of low-current bunches and a high-current single bunch. Since a bunch-by-bunch feedback system was not available because of the high contrast of currents between the bunch train and the single bunch, we suppressed multibunch instabilities in the transverse and longitudinal planes by using the octupole magnets and RF phase modulation, respectively. We also suppressed single-bunch instabilities by controlling ring chromaticity. As a result, we successfully stored a 450 mA current with the hybrid fill mode: 1/2 filling (2.56 mA/bunch × 156) + 1 single bunch opposite to the bunch train (50 mA/bunch). The distribution of vacuum pressures along the ring was similar for the hybrid fill and the typical single-bunch mode. In this conference, we will present the results of this test experiment as well as some future subjects to be solved for the user operation. |

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV-class energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting active R&D efforts for that. We are developing super-brilliant DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting linacs, 1.3 GHz high CW-power rf sources, and other important components. We are also constructing a compact ERL for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using those key components. We present our recent progress in this project. |
