  Electron beams with moderate energy ranging from 4 to 50 MeV can be used to produce x-rays through the Channeling Radiation (CR) mechanism. Typically, the x-ray spectrum from these sources extends up to 140 keV and this range covers the demand for most practical applications. The parameters of the electron beam determine the spectral brilliance of the x-ray source. The electron beam produced at the Fermilab new facility Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator (ASTA) meets the requirements to assemble an experimental high brilliance CR x-ray source. In the first stage of the experiment the energy of the beam is 20 MeV and due to the very low emittance (100 nm) at low bunch charge (20 pC) the expected average brilliance of the x-ray source is 0.8x107 photons/[s-(mm-mrad)2-0.1%BW]. In the second stage of the experiment the beam energy will be increased to 50 MeV and consequently the average brilliance will be 4.8x108 photons/[s-(mm-mrad)2-0.1%BW]. Also, the x-ray spectrum will be extended from about 30 keV to 140 keV.

  The global orbit feedback for the 1.5 GeV electron storage ring of TLS has been operated more than ten years. This system uses general processors to control feedback loop with 1 kHz rate. It is very important for various operation of storage ring now, but some hardware components could have been out of stock in the future. As a prototype, a FPGA based fast global orbit feedback at a 10 kHz data acquisition rate has been developed. A micro-TCA liked platform with FPGA board is used to implement control algorithm and acquire BPM data from Libera Brillance. The correction algorithm is written in VHDL and connected to power supply with AURORA digital links. The system architecture will be discussed in this report.

TUPWA064 Study of Inherent Potential for Emittance Reduction at the SPring-8 Storage Ring optics, emittance, storage-ring, photon 1573

  A design study for an upgrade project of the SPring-8, the SPring-8-II, is in progress, which is a full-scale major lattice modification. Besides the design study for the SPring-8-II, an inherent potential of achieving much higher brilliance than that of the present SPring-8 has been explored for the general evaluation. In this paper, the evaluation of the inherent potential for the SPring-8, not for the SPring-8-II, in terms of increasing the brilliance is discussed.

  In Darmstadt/Germany the existing accelerator facility GSI is expanding to one of the biggest joint research projects worldwide: FAIR, a new antiproton and ion research facility with so far unmatched intensities and quality. The existing accelerators will be used as pre-accelerators and therefor need to be upgraded. In a first step the 36 MHz-HSI-RFQ for high current beams will get new electrodes to fulfill the FAIR requirements. First simulation results for capacity and multipole momentums will be presented.

  As part of an injector system for FAIR, the GSI UNILAC has to meet high demands in terms of beam brilliance at a low duty factor. To accomplish this goal an extensive upgrade program has started. To increase the beam intensity behind the UNILAC, it is aimed to increase the efficiency of the 1.4 MeV/u gas stripper. A modification of the stripper setup was developed to replace the N2-jet with a pulsed gas injection, synchronized with the transit of the beam pulse. The pulsed gas injection lowers the gas load for the differential pumping system, rendering possible the use of other promising gas targets. In recent measurements the performance of the modified setup was tested using an 238U-beam with various stripper media, including H2, He, and N2. The data provide a systematic basis for an improved understanding of slow heavy ions passing through gaseous media. The stripping performance of the current N2-jet was excelled by using H2 at increased gas densities, enabled by the new pulsed gas cell.
