  A beam injection scheme using a pulsed multipole magnet is suitable for the top-up injection because a disturbance to the stored beam is much smaller than that of the conventional scheme using several kicker magnets. At the Photon Factory storage ring, the top-up injection with a pulsed sextupole magnet (PSM) has been used for the user operation since January 2011. In order to ascertain the effect of the PSM injection, we measured turn-by-turn stored beam profiles following the injection kick by using a fast-gated camera. As a result, it was demonstrated that the PSM injection dramatically decreases not only the coherent dipole oscillation but also the beam profile modulation, as expected from the beam tracking simulation.
