  72 out of the 74 girders on which the Diamond Storage Ring magnets are mounted, can in principle be moved along 5 degrees of freedom (sway, heave, yaw,pitch, roll) potentially allowing a thorough re-alignment of the machine. Previously conducted tests improved our knowledge of the system both in terms of simulations and comprehension of the control system we rely upon. In this report we present the results of more detailed tests which now give us full confidence in our ability to predict the results of any given set of girder moves. We also discuss possible ways of increasing the speed of the procedure, and a strategy to mitigate the impact of girder moves involving nearby beam lines.

  The concept of converting individual cells of the Diamond Double Bend Achromat (DBA) lattice into a modified 4-bend achromat with a new straight section for insertion devices (IDs) in the middle of the arc, grew out of earlier studies of low emittance MBA lattices*, and was motivated by the need for additional ID straight sections, since all of the 22 ID straight sections in the Diamond storage ring are either occupied or have been allocated to future beamlines. Such a modification effectively replaces each DBA cell with two new DBA cells, hence the term Double-DBA or DDBA has come to be used for the project. Since the tangent point for bending magnet beamlines lies close to the start of the second dipole in the original DBA, this allows unused exit ports and spaces on the experimental hall which are available for future bending magnet beamlines to be used for higher performance ID beamlines. In this report we present an overview of the status of the project, the various accelerator physics and engineering studies that have been carried out, and plans for the implementation of one or two DDBA cells in Diamond.

  Cryocooled permanent magnet undulators (CPMUs) using NdFeB magnets around 150K were first proposed by Hara*. These are cooled by using either GM cryocoolers or circulating sub-cooled liquid nitrogen. Due to the heat load from radiation and wakefield heating from the electron beam, temperature gradients can develop along the length of the magnet girders which could be as large as several degrees for the Diamond Light Source (DLS) storage ring operating parameters. Some grades of the magnetic material (NdxPr1-x)2Fe14B have remanence curves versus temperature which increase significantly for temperatures below 150K with peaks below 80K**. This means that the operating temperature of a CPMU using this material can be close to the boiling point of liquid nitrogen. The proposed cooling system for the new DLS CPMU is based on a thermosiphon allowing nitrogen to boil inside the cooling channels without a circulating pump. This has the advantage of absorbing large amounts (>250W) of heat with very small temperature gradients. We report here the results of a prototype magnet beam cooled with a thermosiphon producing a temperature gradient of less than 0.05K along a 2m beam at ~77K.
