  Sirius is the new 4th generation synchrotron light source being built in Campinas, Brazil. The motion control report was created to describe all the steps taken to choose the set of motors, motor drives and controllers that the hardware (GAE) and software (SOL) support groups will recommend. The steps include researching motion control systems in other Synchrotron laboratories, talking to the Sirius beam line designers, defining requirements and testing. This presentation describes the report, showing the information gathering process and latest results.

  A virtual accelerator is being developed for Sirius, the new 4th generation synchrotron light source being built in Campinas, Brazil. The virtual accelerator is an on-line beam simulator which is integrated into EPICS control system. It consists of a command line interface server with a channel access (CA) layer and with an in-house developed tracking code library written in C++ for efficiency gain. The purpose of such server is to facilitate early development and testing of high level applications for the control system.

THPOPRPO11 Processing SPE Files from Princeton Instruments during Data Acquisition in LNLS ion, experiment, controls, detector 108
 
  • D.B. Beniz
    LNLS, Campinas, Brazil
 
  The beamline of Dispersive X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, DXAS, in LNLS uses a Princeton Instruments CCD, PyLoN, to acquire spectra of materials under analysis. Such camera produces an SPE binary file. Some Python scripts were developed to display absorbance and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) during the experiment. Firstly, using WinspecUtils.py* module we extract the data in a 2D array (intensities by pixels) from an SPE file of radiant flux received by a material (I0), then, while spectra of radiant flux transmitted by that material (I), is being acquired, their data are extracted from a temporary SPE file. With I and I0 we calculate absorbance (mu) = ln(I0/I) and plot it with matplotlib** of Python . For XMCD same data extraction is performed, but each cycle has eight spectra with magnet field varying its orientation: + - - + - + + -; and the calculation is XMCD = {AVG[mu(norm)(+)] - AVG[mu(norm)(-)]}. Calculated XMCD is also plot. So, with such information of absorbance and XMCD being displayed during the experiment the users could quickly act to fix any problem.

  This paper gives an overview of some feedback & control systems in Synchrotron SOLEIL that are in use or in development today. Electron Beam stability is something that is being addressed in several SOLEIL applications; Fast Orbit Feedback is a multi-input multi-output control system made to stabilize beam position perturbations with slow and fast corrections. In addition, active RF cavities are used to maintain stable beam energy & spread as well as keeping electron density even throughout the storage ring. Beam stability also comes from feedforward non-linear control in particle trajectory compensation on both sides of electromagnetic undulators. On beamlines, multi-actuator piezos or pneumatics are used to regulate photon flux to keep within detector operating range; a method to maximize the photon flux while keeping detector below damage thresholds. Currently in development at the sample stage level, the Nanoprobe Project (collaboration MAXIV & Soleil) focuses on sample stabilization during step- & fly- scans which is realized through multi-axis nano-positioning with high- & low- frequency closed-loop control implementing interferometer feedback &/or compensation tables.
