Design studies are underway to arrive at a complete parameter set for a very high luminosity e+e- Super B-Factory (SBF) in the luminosity range approaching 1036/cm2/s. The design is based on a collider in the PEP-II tunnel but with an upgraded RF system (higher frequency), magnets, vacuum system, and interaction region. The accelerator physics issues associated with this design are reviewed as well as the site and power constraints. Near term future studies will be discussed.

In regular top-up-and-coast operation, PEP-II average luminosity is about 70…75% of the peak luminosity due to detector ramp-down and ramp-up times plus the time it takes to top-up both beams. We recently commissioned a new operational mode where the Low Energy Ring is injected continuously without ramping down the detector. The benefits?increased luminosity lifetime and roughly half the number of top-ups per shift?were expected to give an increase in delivered luminosity of about 15% at the same peak luminosity; this was confirmed in test runs. In routine trickle operation, however, it appears that the increase in delivered luminosity is more than twice that due to an increase in availability credited to the more stable operating conditions during trickle operation. In this paper we will present our operational experience as well as some of the diagnostics we use to monitor and maintain tuning of the machine in order to control injection background and protect the detector. Test runs are planned to extend trickle-charge operation to the High Energy Ring as well.

An x-ray beam-size monitor for positrons in the low-energy ring (LER) of the PEP-II B Factory at SLAC is being designed to accommodate the present 2-A, 3.1-GeV beam and anticipated currents of up to 4.7 A. The final photon stop of an arc will be rebuilt to pass dipole radiation through cooled apertures to optics 17 m from the source. Zone-plate imaging there can achieve a resolution of 6 microns, compared to 35 for a pinhole camera. Two multilayer x-ray mirrors precede the zone plate, limiting the bandwidth to 1%, in order to avoid chromatic blurring and protect the zone plate. Despite the narrow bandwidth, the zone plate?s larger diameter compared to a pinhole camera allows for a comparable photon flux. We will image all 1700 LER bunches and also measure them individually, searching for variations along the train due to electron-cloud and beam-beam effects, using a scanning detector conceptually derived from a wire scanner. A mask with three narrow slots at different orientations will scan the image to obtain three projections. In one passage, signals from a fast scintillator and photomultiplier will be rapidly digitized and sorted to profile each bunch.

PEP-II is an e+e- B-Factory Collider located at SLAC operating at the Upsilon 4S resonance. PEP-II has delivered, over the past four years, an integrated luminosity to the BaBar detector of over 175 fb-1 and has reached a luminosity over 7.4x1033/cm2/s. Steady progress is being made in reaching higher luminosity. The goal over the next few years is to reach a luminosity of at least 2x1034/cm2/s. The accelerator physics issues being addressed in PEP-II to reach this goal include the electron cloud instability, beam-beam effects, parasitic beam-beam effects, trickle injection, high RF beam loading, lower beta y*, interaction region operation, and coupling control.
