The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is a next generation high intensity beam facility. Its Accumulator Ring Extraction Fast Kicker System is a very high peak power, high average power, high precision pulse-waveform, ultra-low beam impedance, and high repetition rated pulsed power system. It has been successfully design and developed at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This system will consist of fourteen identical high voltage modulators and fourteen extraction magnet sections located inside of the SNS accumulator ring. The overall system output will reach multiple GW peak power with 60 Pulse-per-second repetition rates. The techniques of reducing impedance, improving rise time, and minimizing ripples will be discussed. The lifetime considerations, issues of the system design, development and construction are presented in this paper.

After an exploratory phase, during which a number of beam parameters were varied, the RHIC experiments now demand high luminosity to study heavy ion collisions in detail. Presently RHIC operates routinely above its design luminosity. In the first 4 weeks of its current operating period (Run-4) the machine has delivered more integrated luminosity that during the 14 weeks of the last gold-gold operating period (Run-2). We give an overview of the changes that increased the instantaneous luminosity and luminosity lifetime, raised the reliability, and improved the operational efficiency.

The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), currently under construction at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is a collaborative effort of six U.S. Department of Energy partner laboratories. With over 312 magnets and 251 power supplies that comprise the beam transport lines and the accumulator ring, it is a challenge to maintain a closed loop on the variable parameters that are integral to these two major systems. This paper addresses the input variables, responsibilities and design parameters used to define the SNS magnet and power supply systems.

A new warm snake has been produced for avoiding the transverse coupling resonance in the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). The warm snake is the world?s first normal conducting helical dipole partial snake which has a double pitch structure to allow spin rotation with no net beam offset or deflection with a single magnet. The warm snake is 2.6m long, and has a field of 1.5 Tesla for a 9 degrees spin rotation. The pitches, current density, and shims were optimized by using OPERA_3D / TOSCA. The magnetic field harmonics have been measured using a system of 51 mm long, 34 mm radius tangential coils. The axial variation of the dipole field angle agrees very well with the calculations, indicating no significant construction errors. However, the measured transfer function shows a discrepancy of 4% which may be caused by BH-curve differences, deformation of the iron and packing factor of the laminations. To correct the beam trajectory the operating current was adjusted and shims were installed on the end plates. These optimization studies, and comparison with measurements, will be shown.
