The Low Energy Ring of the PEP-II B-factory operates with extremely high currents and short positron bunches. Any discontinuity in the vacuum chamber can excite a broad-band spectrum of the High Order Modes. A temperature rise has been found in the vacuum chamber elements in one transition from straight section to arc. The power in the wake fields was high enough to char beyond use the feed-through for the Titanium Sublimation Pump. This pumping section consists of the beam chamber and an ante-chamber. Fields, excited in the beam chamber penetrate to the ante-chamber and then through the heater wires of the TSP come out. A small ceramic tile was placed near the TSP feed-through to absorb these fields. A short wire antenna was also placed there. HOM measurements show a wide spectrum with a maximum in the 2-3 GHz region. A special water cooled HOM absorber was designed and put inside the ante-chamber part of the section. As a result, the HOM power in the section decreased and the temperature rise went down. The power loss is 750 W for a beam current of 2 A. Measurements of the HOM impedance for different bunch patterns, bunch length and transverse beam position will be presented.

The strip line electrodes of the kickers used in the transverse bunch-by-bunch feedback systems see significant power deposition by beam and HOM-induced currents. This leads to elevated temperatures of the aluminum electrodes and will ultimately become a limit for the beam current in the Low Energy Ring. Heat is transported to the environment primarily by radiation from the blackened surface of the electrodes. In order to extend the beam-current range of these kickers, new electrodes have been fabricated from molybdenum which are able to run at significantly higher temperature, thus greatly increasing the efficiency of the radiative cooling of the electrodes. Blackening of the electrodes is achieved by oxidation in air at 1000°F using a recipe first applied in aviation research for supersonic aircraft. Emissivity was measured on coupons and a whole electrode to be about 0.6. In addition, the match at the terminations of the electrodes is improved following field calculations and measurements on a model of the kicker.

On December 15, 2003, 8 1/2 months after the last electrons circulated in the old SPEAR2 storage ring and 5 days after the beginning of commissioning, the first electrons were accumulated in the completely new SPEAR3 ring. The rapid installation and commissioning is a testimony to the SPEAR3 project staff and collaborators who have built an excellent machine and equipped it with powerful and accessible machine modeling and control programs. The final year of component fabrication, system implementation and testing, the 7-month installation period leading up to the beginning of commissioning, and lessons learned are described.
