  abstract     = {{Fast beam-based alignment (BBA) of BPMs and quadrupole magnets was evolved and demonstrated at ALBA*. A conventional BBA method makes a local bump, change quadrupole strength, and measure COD by the quadrupole, which is very time-consuming. However, the fast BBA using AC excitations of corrector magnets can quickly measure the displacement between a BPM and a quadrupole. In the case of ALBA, the BBA duration was reduced from 5 hours to 10 minutes. The accuracy was the same as the conventional BBA (~10 um). This fast BBA method will help the alignment of BPMs in 3rd and 4th generation light sources.}},
