Feasibility studies for two families of corrector magnets for NSLS-II are presented. The first family of magnets are generalizations of figure eight quadrupoles using rotationally symmetric breaks in the return yoke to fit in available space. Properties specific to figure eight magnet are identified. The second type of magnet is a combined sextupole/dipole trim.

The design and measurement of the NSLS-II ring quadrupoles prototypes are presented. These magnets are part of a larger prototype program described in [1]. Advances in software, hardware, and manufacturing have led to some new level of insight in the quest for the perfect magnet design. Three geometric features are used to minimize the first three allowed harmonics by way of optimization. Validations through measurement and confidence levels in calculations are established.

NSLS-II is a new state-of-the-art medium energy synchrotron light source designed to deliver world leading brightness and flux with top-off operation for constant output. Design and engineering of NSLS-II began in 2005 and the beginning of construction and operations are expected to start in 2009 and 2015, respectively. The energy of the machine is 3Gev and the circumference 792 m. The chosen lattice requires tight on magnetic field tolerances for the ring magnets. These magnets have been designed with 3D Opera software. The required multipole field quality and alignment preclude the use of multifunctional sextupoles, leading to discrete corrector magnets in the storage ring. The corrector magnets are multifunctional and will provide horizontal and vertical steering as well as skew quadrupole. This paper describes the dipoles, quadrupoles, sextupoles, and corrector magnets design and prototyping status of the NSLS-II.

Discrete corrector magnets are used for the 230 horizontal and vertical steering magnets in the NSLS-II storage ring. A unique design incorporates both dipole and skew quad correctors for(DC) steering in the same magnet. Separate AC (orbit feedback) correctors have also been designed. Comparison with alternate designs are presented as well as prototype measurements

The Sextupole magnets for the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS-II) have stringent performance requirements. These magnets have a faceted pole profile departing from the classic shape due to constraint imposed by the vacuum tube. Three different geometric features were used as parameters to minimize unallowed harmonics. Prototypes were measured and have confirmed the good field quality.

A new 3rd generation light source (NSLS-II project) is in the early stage of construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The NSLS-II facility will provide ultra high brightness and flux with exceptional beam stability. It presents several challenges in the diagnostics and instrumentation, related to the extremely small emittance. In this paper, we present an overview of all planned instrumentation systems, results from research & development activities; and then focus on other challenging aspects.
