WEA1CO03 | Simulations of Booster Injection Efficiency for the APS-Upgrade | 647 |
|
||
The APS-Upgrade will require the injector chain to provide high single bunch charge for swap-out injection. One possible limiting factor to achieving this is an observed reduction of injection efficiency into the booster synchrotron at high charge. We have simulated booster injection using the particle tracking code elegant, including a model for the booster impedance and beam loading in the RF cavities. The simulations point to two possible causes for reduced efficiency: energy oscillations leading to losses at high dispersion locations, and a vertical beam size blowup caused by ions in the particle accumulator ring. We also show that the efficiency is much higher in an alternate booster lattice with smaller vertical beta function and zero dispersion in the straight sections. | ||

WEPOB16 | Simulation Studies of a Prototype Stripline Kicker for the APS-MBA Upgrade | 928 |
|
||
Funding: *Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. A prototype dual-blade stripline kicker for the APS multi-bend achromat (MBA) upgrade has been designed and developed. It was optimized with 3D CST Micro-wave Studio. The high voltage (HV) feedthrough and air-side connector were designed and optimized. The elec-tromagnetic fields along the beam path, deflecting angle and high electric fields with their locations were calculat-ed with 15 kV differential pulse voltage applied to the kicker blades through the feedthroughs. The beam im-pedance and power dissipation on different parts of the kicker and external loads were studied for a 48-bunch fill pattern. Our simulation results show that the prototype kicker with its HV feedthroughs meets the specified re-quirements. The results of TDR (time-domain reflectome-ter) test, high voltage pulse test and beam test of the pro-totype kicker assembly agreed with the simulations. |

WEPOB24 | Preliminary Test Results of a Prototype Fast Kicker for APS MBA Upgrade | 950 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. The APS multi-bend achromatic (MBA) upgrade storage ring plans to support two bunch fill patterns: a 48-bunch and a 324-bunch. A "swap out" injection scheme is required. In order provide the required kick to injected beam, to minimize the beam loss and residual oscillation of injected beam, and to minimize the perturbation to stored beam during injection, the rise, fall, and flat-top parts of the kicker pulse must be within a 16.9-ns interval. Stripling-type kickers are chosen for both injection and extraction. We developed a prototype kicker that supports a ±15kV differential pulse voltage. We performed high voltage discharge, TDR measurement, high voltage pulse test and beam test of the kicker. We report the design of the fast kicker and the test results. |

THPOA14 | Ion Effects in the APS Particle Accumulator Ring | 1123 |
|
||
Trapped ions in the APS Particle Accumulator Ring (PAR) lead to a positive coherent tune shift in both planes, which increases along the PAR cycle as more ions accumulate. This effect has been studied using an ion simulation code developed at SLAC. After modifying the code to include a realistic vacuum profile, multiple ionization, and the effect of shaking the beam to measure the tune, the simulation agrees well with our measurements. This code has also been used to evaluate the possibility of ion instabilities at the high bunch charge needed for the APS-Upgrade. | ||
