  A superconducting undulator with a period of 15 mm is under development at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). The undulator is designed to achieve a peak field on the beam axis of 0.8 T with an 8 mm pole tip gap and an NbTi coilpack current density of 1 kA/mm2. Because of the high current density in the coilpack, the superconducting magnet operates at about 75% of the short sample limit at 4.2K. Additional heat load to the coilpack, mainly due to the image currents and synchrotron radiation from the electron beam in the storage ring, will reduce the stability margin. An experiment was conducted to measure the reduction in the stability margin of the coilpack due to heat load on the beam chamber. The heat load was deposited in a 12-period prototype undulator using thin-film heaters attached to the inner surface of a simulated vacuum chamber. Evaluation of the stability margin based on the experiment and calculations of the beam heating and thermal conduction between the undulator and beam chamber will be discussed.

  In the ISIS facility based at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in the UK, second target station project was funded, which requires to increase the current intensity by 1.5-times (300 micro-A). Four 2nd harmonic RF cavities will be installed in the ISIS synchrotron in order to increase the trapping efficiency, and to mitigate the space charge detuning. A very low output-impedance RF system for the 2nd harmonic cavity has been developed by the collaboration between RAL, Argonne National Laboratory (US) and KEK (Japan). The system comprises the 240 kW triode as a final amplifier with plate-to-grid feedback path. The measured output-impedance was less than 30 ohms over the frequency range of 2.7 - 6.2 MHz, which agreed well with calculations. High power test was also performed under frequency swept mode at 50 Hz repetition. The operation was almost stable, and more than 12 kVpp was obtained as maximum. The voltage gain of the final amplifier was 25 - 30, which decreased gradually with frequency due to decreasing input-impedance of triode. The beam test is planned at ISIS in near future.
