The first shutter assembly outside of the Front End (FE) for Brockhouse X-Ray Diffraction and Scattering Sector (BXDS) beamline required a unique design solution to accommodate all components into required safety shutter position. Located between the IVW high energy wiggler monochromator and POE1 wall, the total envelope size approximated 1m x 0.660m (LxW). Accommodating a smaller space required an alternative shutter design than traditionally used implemented at the CLS. The alternative proposed design combined the collimator (CLM), safety shutter (SSH), photon shutter (PSH) and Fixed Mask (FM) into one chamber. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was conducted on the FM and PSH assembly to verify that geometric designs were adequate for reasonable operation in the beamline. FEA was used to determine the steady-state thermal and static-structural response in both operating positions. Missteer was analyzed for both operating positions to a maximum of 2.5mm (commonly accepted missteer used at the CLS) from center. Finally, two extreme position (5mm) analyses were completed for determination of potential, but unlikely operating conditions.

  The fast closing shutter (FCS) system plays an important role in protecting the ultra-high vacuum in the SPring-8 storage ring from a sudden vacuum accident in the beam-lines. In order to predict the transit time of the shock wave and the following pressure increase, a shock tube system with an inner diameter of 35 mm and a total length of 10 m was prepared to measure the shock Mach number. Experiments have been conducted that simulated an inrush of the atmosphere into the high-vacuum (~10-3 Pa) pipe by using a trigger system that combines of a thin cellophane diaphragm with a plunger. Special ionization gauges with a high-speed amplifier are distributed about every 1 m to detect the transit time of the shock wave and to measure the pressure in a low-pressure chamber after the actuation of the FCS system. By inserting vacuum components with various cross-sectional shapes including actual front-end components into the shock tube, the attenuation in the shock wave was systematically investigated.

  Since the first commissioning in 1982, the 2.5-GeV Photon Factory storage ring has been upgraded three times in 1986, 1997 and 2005, in order to reduce the beam emittance and to create new four short straight sections for in-vacuum short period undulators. To satisfy the new boundary conditions of the upgrades, the beamline front ends were re-designed. We look back on the history of the beamline front-end components at the Photon Factory.

Accurate and stable x-ray beam position monitors (XBPMs) are key elements in obtaining the desired user beam stability in the Advanced Photon Source (APS). Currently, the APS is upgrading its facility to increase productivity and to provide far more highly coherent and brilliant hard x-rays to beamline experiments with a new storage ring magnet lattice based on a multi-bend achromat (MBA) lattice. To improve the beam stability, one of the proposed beam diagnostics is the grazing-incidence insertion device x-ray beam position monitor (GRID-XBPM) for high heat load (HHL) front ends (FEs) at the APS. In this paper, final design of the GRID-XBPM and the high-power beam test results at beamline 27-ID-FE will be addressed.

WEPE05 Innovative Design of Radiation Shielding for Synchrotron Light Sources 321

  Over the course of decades, the shape of the bulk shielding walls for synchrotron light sources has developed into a standard configuration, including a ratchet shape of the outer storage ring wall, to accommodate the clearance needs for front end and first optical enclosure assemblies. New state of the art light sources will have low emittance, high energy beams, which will give potential for higher beam losses. These losses will yield higher radiation dose rates at the downstream wall and stricter safety requirements in the first optical enclosure. Throughout the installation of local shields at NSLS-II, verification dose rate studies of various shielding configurations were performed. Analysis of these studies revealed that a circular outer bulk shield wall could greatly reduce the dose rate to the users who work near the front end optical components. This presentation discusses the benefits of this circular bulk shield wall verses the challenges of component installation near the wall and ways to mitigate them.

Currently under construction on Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory Campus, Campinas/SP, Sirius is a 3GeV, 4th Generation Synchrotron Light Source. In this paper we describe the Front End that has been designed to transmit the intense synchrotron radiation generated by the insertion devices that will generate the most critical thermal stress, with a peak power density of 55.7 kW/mrad² and a total power of 9.3kW at 500mA in the storage ring. The functions of the main components and their location in the layout are described. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and structural simulations, that have been carried out to verify the performance under the high heat loads generated by Sirius, are also detailed along with the limits of temperature and stress that have been employed in the design.

  A superconducting wiggler (SCW) will be first employed to generate high energy X-rays for ultra-hard X-ray applications beamline at Shanghai synchrotron radiation facility (SSRF). The front-end will handle a heat load of 44.7 kW with a peak power density of 45 kW/mrad², which is much higher than the commissioned ones at SSRF. Overall design of the high heat load front-end has been completed, including one short absorber with a length of 300 mm and three long absorbers longer than 500 mm. Long absorbers have been designed to be made by medium speed wire-cut electrical discharge machining (WEDM-MS) or electron beam welding (EBW). Thermal analyses of all absorbers have also been done to comply with the failure criteria of SSRF.

  The new insertion device beamlines in the PETRAIII extension project are arranged in three new sector types. Following will present the designs of the photon beamlines frontends for these sectors. The designs are based on the original design concept developed for the photon beamline frontends at PETRAIII. The aim of this generic approach was to minimize the number of specialized components for all beamlines. The existing girder concept allows a fast and reliable installation phase. The newly designed frontends aimed at using the same proven components and minimizing of the number of girder variations. There will be 4 new sectors with two undulator IDs in each sector. The canting angle between the undulators has been increased from 5mrad to 20mrad in difference to the generic beamlines. Additionally, two of the straight sections are modified. One straight section will be transformed in a side station sector with a 1mrad canting angle. The other straight section with the 40m long damping wiggler will be used as a single beamline with a hard X-ray source. The modifications of the original frontend design, the components and the deviations between the sector types are being presented.

The pulse-by-pulse X-ray beam monitor equipped with microstripline structure had been developed at SPring-8. This monitor has a potential to function as (1) a pulse intensity monitor, (2) a pulse-by-pulse X-ray beam position monitor (XBPM), and (3) a pulse timing monitor. In insertion device beamlines, however, it cannot be used without further improvement because of heat-resistance problem. Therefore, we examined a pulse-by-pulse XBPM for insertion device beamlines by introducing heat resistance structure, which employed a diamond heat sink. Thermal finite element analysis was carried out to design an effective structure of a detector head and the holder. Evaluation tests of the prototype will be also presented in this contribution.

Update on the Front Ends Project Status at MAX IV  
 
  • A. Bartalesi
    MAX IV Laboratory, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
 
  The MAX IV laboratory is a Swedish national laboratory for synchrotron radiation hosted by the Lund University. It will operate two storage rings to produce synchrotron light of very high intensity and quality over a broad wavelength range. A linear accelerator will feed these storage rings in topping up mode as well as serve as an electron source for a short pulse facility built on its extension. The storage rings have different sizes and operate at different energies: the MAX IV 1.5 GeV ring has 12 straight sections optimized for soft x-rays; while the MAX IV 3.0 GeV ring, has 20 straight sections, optimized for harder x-rays. In the initial stage of the project, five beamlines are foreseen to operate on the 3.0 GeV storage ring and an additional five on the 1.5 GeV ring. Each beamline requires a front end to interface the different characteristics in terms of vacuum level, heat loads, radiation safety, beam size and position, with respect to the storage ring. This document describes the most recent developments of the different Front Ends project at MAXIV.
