| MOPKF012 | A 7T Multipole Wiggler in BESSY II: Implementation and Commissioning Results | 324 |
|
||
| To generate hard X-ray beams for residual stress analysis and for magnetic scattering with the BESSY II SR source, a 7T wiggler with 17 poles has been implemented. Several problems had to be solved. Wake fields induced by smaller steps in the geometry of the radiation shield inside the beam chamber led to intolerable LHe consumption, which have been analysed numerically and then cured by improving the shield geometry. Much of the routine operation procedures are influenced by the unusually high radiation power level of max. 55 kW. For system protection an interlock system dumps the electron beam automatically in case of relevant error events. This wiggler is by far the strongest perturbation of the linear beam optics, breaking seriously the symmetry of the ring. Beam optical parameters including tune shift and beta beat have been measured to quantify these perturbations and develop efficient cures to limit the negative effects on beam lifetime and dynamic aperture. So far the wiggler is operated at 2.8 T and max. currents up to 250 mA in normal user shifts. | ||
| WEPLT050 | Frequency Map Measurements at BESSY | 1948 |
|
||
| With two dedicated diagnostic kicker magnets and a turn-by-turn, bunch-by-bunch beam position monitor frequency maps were measured under various operating conditions of the BESSY storage ring. Depending on the number and type of insertion devices in operation additional resonances show up. Details of the experimental setup as well as the data analysis are presented. The results will be compared with theoretical calculations which are based on the linear model of the storage ring lattice extracted from measured response matrices. Non-linear elements are added to the model in order to describe the effect of the strong sextupole magnets, the horizontal corrector magnets installed in these magnets, and of some of the insertion devices. | ||

BESSY is a low emittance, 1.7 Gev electron storage ring. A dedicated, low alpha optics is applied to produce short electron bunches for coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) in the THz range[*]. By a further detuning of the optics, stable pulses as short as 0.7 ps rms length were produced. The sub-ps pulse shape is analysed by an auto-correlation method of the emitted CSR. The CSR-bursting instability is measured and compared with theory to estimate the current for stable, sub-ps pulses. Present limits of the low alpha optics are discussed.

| THPKF015 | Compressed Electron Bunches for THz-Generation - Operating BESSY II in a Dedicated Low Alpha Mode | 2287 |
|

|
For the first time an electron storage ring was operated during regular user shifts in a dedicated 'low alpha' mode, where electron bunches are compressed to 5 times shorter length for THz [*] and short X-ray pulses experiments. The 1 mm rms-long bunches emit powerfull, coherent THz waves, up to 107 times stronger than incoherent radiation. We report on machine set up and operating experience.

| THPLT027 | Optical Transition Radiation Based Beam Diagnostics at the BESSY Synchrotron Radiation Source and FEL Accelerators | 2529 |
|
||
| Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) based diagnostics tools are widely used in linear accelerators to measure beam parameters like transverse beam size and emittance. Design ideas for OTR stations in the linac section of the BESSY FEL facility are presented. Several key components will be tested in the transfer lines of the BESSY storage ring. Furthermore a novel type of OTR monitor is introduced which enables the measurement of the transverse overlap of seed laser and electron beam in the undulator sections of the linac based FEL facility. Here a special radiator screen will be used allowing simultaneous imaging of both beams in the same optical readout channel. |
