Recently the energy acceptance and Touschek lifetime of the storage ring of the Swiss Light Source (SLS) could be successfully set to values in agreement with simulations for an ideal lattice. This was finally achieved through control of linear coupling and symmetrization of the sextupole pattern. 36 small corrector magnets were installed for this purpose as additional windings on the ring sextupoles: 30 skew quadrupoles (24 at zero and 6 at maximum dispersion) and 6 auxiliary sextupoles. Base for the success of these measures were previous corrections of dipolar and quadrupolar errors, which we will summarize briefly. |
