  TPS is 3-GeV synchrotron light source which have opened for public users since September 2016 and now offers 400 mA top-up mode operation. The requirements of the long term orbit stability and orbit reproducibility after beam trip have been gradually more and more stringent and become a challenge from users’ request. Furthermore, the thermal effect would be expected to be worsen after 500 mA top-up operation which should deteriorate the orbit drift. The report investigates the long-term orbit stability observed from eBPM and XBPM and also evaluates the possibility of the local XBPM feedback.

  To eliminate long distance cabling for improving signal quality, the remote waveform access supports have been developed and applied on the TPS (Taiwan Photon Source) and TLS (Taiwan Light Source) control systems. Waveforms include pulse magnets power supplies waveforms, AC waveforms of main power supplies, LLRF waveforms, beam signals, etc., and these are necessary to be monitored during routine beam operation. One is that use the EPICS-embedded data acquisition systems which are formed by the Zynq System-on-Chip architecture to capture the waveform signals; the other is that a dedicated EPICS IOC is used to communicate with the present Ethernet-based oscilloscopes to acquire each waveform data. According to specific purposes use, the different graphical applications have been developed and integrated into the existing operation interfaces. These are convenient to observe waveform status and to analyze the acquired data on the control consoles. The efforts are described at this paper.

  Operating an injector of a synchrotron light source, energy efficiency is an important issue. Dipole and quadrupoles families of the booster synchrotron for Taiwan Light Source (TLS) is resonantly excited by three White circuits at 10 Hz rate. Magnet current cannot response in cycle-by-cycle basic due to resonance nature. The possibility of operation of the booster synchrotron in energy saving mode is explored. Minimizing the duration of magnet excitation without effect of the injected and extracted beam to support top-up operation for the TLS is investigated. Efforts will be presented in this report.

  ALBA, in collaboration with MAXIV, has developed a four-channel electrometer of 18bit deep with 8 ranges from 1mA to 100pA. The objective of accuracy in the measurements made clear from the beginning the need to compensate the components tolerances and its dependence with temperature. This paper describes the tests performed to characterize the acquisition chain, the automatic calibration developed and the hardware and software implemented to achieve the accuracy target. This implementation has been eased due to the high flexibility given by ALIN and Harmony** architectures used in the Em#.

Accelerator physics studies at the storage ring KARA at KIT produce terabytes of diagnostics data per day, which is recorded once and then reused on a long-term basis to answer different research questions at KIT. Finally, raw data and intermediate analysis results should be published along with scientific results. Thus storing from the very beginning the data of all analysis steps and its metadata in a central portal would be very beneficial. Similar requirements exist for synchrotron X-rayμtomography at the KIT imaging cluster and there is an interest to share the large data analysis effort. By using a new collaborative approach, the NOVA project aims to create tools, to enable an efficient use of valuable beam time. Forμtomography beamlines the project will build up a comprehensive database of various demonstrator organisms up for the morphological analysis of animals. The NOVA portal is integrated in the local data handling procedures and the datasets automatically appear in the NOVA portal as they are recorded. For both applications, accelerator diagnostics and X-ray tomography, the NOVA portal will offer new collaborative tools to enable synergetic data analysis.
