TUCPL02 | Synchronized Timing and Control System Construction of SuperKEKB Positron Damping Ring | ion, timing, positron, linac | 229 |
|
|||
The KEK electron/positron injector chain delivers beams for particle physics and photon science experiments. A damping ring has been constructed at the middle of the linac to generate a positron beam with sufficiently low emittance to support a 40-fold higher luminosity in the SuperKEKB asymmetric collider over the previous project of KEKB, in order to increase our understanding of flavour physics. A timing and control system for the damping ring is under construction to enable the timing synchronization and beam bucket selection between the linac, the positron damping ring and the SuperKEKB main ring. It should manage precise timing down to several picoseconds for the beam energy and bunch compression systems. Besides precise timing controls to receive and transmit positron beams, it has to meet local analysis requirements in order to measure beam properties precisely with changing the RF frequency. It is incorporating the event timing control modules from MRF and SINAP. | |||

TUPHA033 | Availability Analysis and Tuning Tools at the Light Source Bessy II | ion, operation, experiment, feedback | 446 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by the German Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, Land Berlin and grants of Helmholtz Association. The 1.7GeV light source BESSY II features about 50 beamlines overbooked by a factor of 2 on the average. Thus availability of high quality synchrotron radiation (SR) is a central asset. SR users at BESSY II can base their beam time expectations on numbers generated according to the common operation metrics*. Major failures of the facility are analyzed according to * and displayed in real time, analysis of minor detriments are provided regularly by off line tools. Many operational constituents are required for extraordinary availability figures: meaningful alarming and dissemination of notifications, complete logging of program, device, system and operator activities, post mortem analysis and data mining tools. Preventive and corrective actions are enabled by consequent root cause analysis based on accurate eLog entries, trouble ticketing and consistent failure classifications. This paper describes the tool sets, developments, their implementation status and some showcase results at BESSY II. * Common operation metrics for storage ring light sources, A. Luedeke, M.

TUPHA084 | Decoupling CERN Accelerators | ion, timing, operation, linac | 608 |
|
|||
The accelerator complex at CERN is a living system. Accelerators are being dismantled, upgraded or change their purpose. New accelerators are built. The changes do not happen overnight, but when they happen they may require profound changes across the handling systems. Central timings (CT), responsible for sequencing and synchronization of accelerators, are good examples of such systems. This paper shows how over the past twenty years the changes and new requirements influenced the evolution of the CTs. It describes experience gained from using the CBCM CT model, for strongly coupled accelerators, and how it led to a design of a new Dynamic Beam Negotiation (DBN) model for the AD and ELENA accelerators, which reduces the coupling, increasing accelerator independence. The paper ends with an idea how to merge strong points of both models in order to create a single generic system able to efficiently handle all involved CERN accelerators and provide more beam time to experiments and LHC. | |||

TUPHA086 | Timing System Upgrade for Top-off Operation of HLS-II | ion, timing, storage-ring, kicker | 612 |
|
|||
The Hefei Light Source II (HLS-II) is a vacuum ultravi-olet (VUV) synchrotron light source. A major upgrade of the light source was finished in 2014, and the timing system was rebuilt with event-system to meet synchroni-zation requirements of the machine. The new timing system provides about 100 output signals with various interfaces. The time resolution of this system is 9.8 ns for most devices and 9 ps for the electron gun and the injec-tion kickers. The measured jitter of the output signal is less than 27 ps (RMS). In order to improve the perfor-mance of light source, the top-off operation mode has been planned. As part of this plan, both the hardware and the software of the timing system are upgraded. By ob-taining real-time data of beam measurement of storage ring, the automatic selection of the bucket is implement-ed. With any designated bunch pattern, top-off injection is achieved, and the storage ring beam can be uniform filled well. | |||

THMPL02 | Upgrade of KEK Electron/positron Linac Control System for the Both SuperKEKB and Light Sources | ion, experiment, linac, electron | 1257 |
|
|||
KEK injector linac has delivered electrons and positrons for particle physics and photon science experiments for more than 30 years. It is being upgraded for the SuperKEKB project, which aims at a 40-fold increase in luminosity over the previous project of KEKB, in order to increase our understanding of flavour physics. This project requires ten-times smaller emittance and five-times larger current in injection beam from the injector. And many hardware components are being tested and installed. Even during the 6-year upgrade, it was requested to inject beams into light sources storage rings of PF and PF-AR. Furthermore, the beam demanding approaches from those storage rings are different. SuperKEKB would demand highest performance, and unscheduled interruption may be acceptable if the performance would be improved. However, light sources expect a stable operation without any unscheduled break, mainly because most users run experiments for a short period. In order to deal with the both requirements several measures are taken for operation, construction and maintenance strategy including simultaneous top-up injections. | |||

THMPA08 | Processing of the Schottky Signals at RHIC | ion, betatron, emittance, cavity | 1327 |
|
|||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. Schottky monitors are used to determine important beam parameters in a non-destructive way. In this paper we present improved processing of the transverse and longitudinal Schottky signals from a hi-Q resonant 2.07 GHz cavity and transverse signals from a low-Q 245 MHz cavity with the main focus on providing the real-time measurement of beam tune, chromaticity and emittance during injection and ramp when the beam condition is changing rapidly. The analysis and control is done in python using recently developed interfaces to Accelerator Device Objects. |

THPHA178 | A Framework for Online Analysis Based on Tensorics Expressions and Streaming Pool | ion, framework, DSL, proton | 1848 |
|
|||
Among other functionalities, the tensorics library provides a framework to declaratively describe expressions of arbitrary values and resolve these expressions in different contexts. The Streaming Pool framework provides a comfortable way to transform arbitrary signals from devices into long-living reactive streams. The combination of these two concepts provides a powerful tool to describe modules for online analysis. In this paper we describe this approach, elaborate on the general concepts and give an overview of actual and potential use cases as well as ideas and plans for future evolution. | |||
