MOPO006 | DAΦNE Bunch-by-bunch Feedback Upgrade as SuperB Design Test | 490 |
|
||
DAΦNE, the PHI-factory located in Frascati, has always shown dynamic behavior strongly dependent on the bunch-by-bunch feedback, since its first runs in 1997. Over the years, to keep up with the evolving machine requirements, transverse and longitudinal systems have received multiple upgrades and updates. During fall 2010, all the six DAΦNE feedback systems have been upgraded to support the next run for KLOE as well as to test bunch-by-bunch feedback architectures intended for the future Italian SuperB factory. Both e+/e- longitudinal feedback systems have been completely replaced with new hardware for increased reliability, better diagnostics and improved maintainability. In the effort to reduce residual dipole beam motion, determined by the front-end and quantization noise floor, vertical feedback systems now feature a 12-bit ADC, in place of the older 8-bit design. In the paper, we describe the hardware and software changes of this upgrade. Feedback performance analysis and beam dynamics data collected by the systems are presented. | ||
WEPC077 | Beam Based Measurements with the Modified Wigglers in DAΦNE | 2196 |
|
||
A novel idea to minimize the odd high order non-linearities in periodic magnets has been presented in other articles in the past. The optimization of this method on the wigglers of the main rings in DAΦNE has been performed by means of multipolar and tracking analysis. After the magnetic measurements on a spare wiggler confirmed the magnetic model used to optimize the DAΦNE wigglers, all the insertion devices in the main rings have been modified accordingly. In fall last year tune variation measurements as a function of closed orbit bumps around the wigglers confirmed the validity of the method. In this paper the beam based measurement results with the new configuration are discussed and compared with those obtained in the previous configurations. | ||
THYB01 | Advanced Beam Manipulation Techniques at SPARC | 2877 |
|
||
SPARC in Frascati is a high brightness photo-injector used to drive Free Electron Laser experiments and explore advanced beam manipulation techniques. The R&D effort made for the optimization of the beam parameters will be presented here, together with the major experimental results achieved. In particular, we will focus on the generation of sub-picosecond, high brightness electron bunch trains via velocity bunching technique (the so called comb beam). Such bunch trains can be used to drive tunable and narrow band THz sources, FELs and plasma wake field accelerators. | ||

THPZ003 | The SuperB Project: Accelerator Status and R&D | 3684 |
|
||
The SuperB collider project has been recently approved by the Italian Government as part of the National Research Plan. SuperB is a high luminosity (1036 cm-2 s-1) asymmetric e+e− collider at the Y(4S) energy. The design is based on a “large Piwinski angle and Crab Waist” scheme already successfully tested at the DAΦNE Phi-Factory in Frascati, Italy. The project combines the challenges of high luminosity colliders and state-of-the-art synchrotron light sources, with two beams (e+ at 6.7 and e- at 4.2 GeV) with extremely low emittances and small beam sizes at the Interaction Point. As unique features, the electron beam will be longitudinally polarized at the IP and the rings will be able to ramp down to collide at the tau/charm energy threshold with one tenth the luminosity. The relatively low beam currents (about 2 A) will allow for low running (power) costs compared to similar machines. The insertion of beam lines for synchrotron radiation users is the latest feature included in the design. The lattice has been recently modified to accommodate insertion devices for X-rays production. A status of the project and a description of R&D in progress will be presented. | ||
THPZ004 | DAΦNE Tune-up for the KLOE-2 Experiment | 3687 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the EuCARD research programme within the 'Assessment of Novel Accelerator Concepts' work package (ANAC-WP11). In its continuous evolution DAΦNE, the Frascati lepton collider, is starting a new run for the KLOE-2 experiment, an upgraded version of the KLOE one. A new interaction region, based on the high luminosity Crab-Waist collision scheme, has been designed, built and installed. Several machine subsystems have been revised according to innovative design concepts in order to improve beam dynamics. Collimators and shieldings have been upgraded in order to minimize the background rates on the detector during coasting as well as injection operation. A wide measurement campaign has been undertaken to verify and quantify the effect of the modifications and to tune-up the collider in view of the 3 years long data-taking foreseen to deliver ~5 fb-1 to the experiment. |
