An s-band re-entrant cavity BPM system is designed for new high brightness injector at HLS. A prototype cavity BPM system was manufactured for off-line test, which is also called cold test. According to the results of computer simulation, wire scanning off-line test method can be used to calibrate the BPM and estimate the performance of the on-line BPM system. Cross-talk problem was detected during the cold test. Ignoring nonlinear effect, transformation matrix is a way to correct cross-talk. Analysis of cold test results showed that position resolution of prototype BPM is better than 3 μm.

Hefei Advanced Light Source(HALS) will be a high brightness light source with about 0.2nmrad emittance at 1.5GeV and about 400m circumference. To enhance brilliance, very low beam emittance is required. High brightness demand and relative low energy will make emittance a critical issue in ring design. Intra-beam scattering(IBS) is usually thought a fundamental limitation to achieve low emittance. Here we preliminarily estimate the emittance growth due to IBS for the temporary lattice design of HALS based on Piwinski and Bjorken-Mtingwa theories, and discuss the effect of implementation of damping wiggler and harmonic cavity to lower the emittance.
