The injection chain for the Diamond Synchrotron Light Source consists of a 100 MeV Linac and 3 GeV booster synchrotron. These were commissioned in 2005 and 2006 respectively, and have provided acceptable performance as an injector since then. To advance a programme of work in evaluating and optimizing new control algorithms for orbit stability on the Diamond Storage Ring it was decided to use the booster synchrotron as a test platform by operating it in DC mode at 100 MeV. In support of this work and to improve the operational performance of the booster a series of studies have been carried out to better understand and characterize it. This work and the results will be presented. | ||
