TUPPB035 | The Kicker Parameters Estimation for Longitudinal Instability Damping of the Beam at SR Storage Ring "Siberia-2" | 394 |
|
||
RF system of the Kurchatov Institute Synchrotron Radiation storage ring "Siberia-2" consists of three cavities. Each of them has two HOMs tuners. Due to the shunt impedance and quality factor of HOMs are high, the beam-cavity interaction leads to the instability and the beam loss as the result. We have to develop a longitudinal feedback system based on the kicker, to cure the longitudinal instabilities. In the article the investigations of the field spectra of the cavities at the beam energy 450 MeV and 2,5 GeV, excited by the beam and the generator, are presented. According to the measurements of the field spectra of the cavities, the most strong HOMs were found. Main parameters of the kicker such as a frequency, a shunt impedance, a quality factor and a power, were calculated. | ||
WEPPC035 | System of Vacuum Monitoring of Synchrotron Radiation Source of National Research Center Kurchatov Institute | 518 |
|
||
The source of synchrotron radiation of National Research Center Kurchatov Institute (KCSR) consists of the main ring on energy of electrons of 2.5 GeV, the booster ring on the maximum energy of 450 MeV and 80 MeV linac. The project of upgrade of KCSR vacuum system, including transition to new power supplies for sputter ion pumps is developed and is implemented. The vacuum system provides vacuum of 0.1 mkPa. The new vacuum system is developed on the basis of the modern high-voltage power supply of the VIP-27 type controlled by the interface units of the BUP-27 type, is placed in standard crate 3U Euromechanics. VIP-27 is controlled the four pumps of PVIG 250/600 type. The vacuum system is controlled from the Pentium computer on the CAN bus. Now the upgraded system serves about 100 vacuum pumps. Power supply unit provides voltage up to 7 kV. The vacuum monitoring is provided by measurements of the current of the power supply unit in the range of 0.0001-10 mA.

WEPPD007 | Vertical Size of an Electron Beam at Siberia-2 | 578 |
|
||
Brightness of the synchrotron radiation light sources is defined by electron beam sizes at radiation point. Horizontal size depends mainly from designed magnetic structure. Vertical size is defined by two processes: first, betatron coupling between vertical and horizontal motions and second, presence of vertical dispersion function at bending magnets. Vertical dispersion creates non-zero vertical emittance even without coupling. The report is dedicated to methods of vertical beam size decreasing at Siberia-2 storage ring. There are two families of skew-quadrupoles on the ring, one lens of every family in each of 6 cells of the magnetic structure. After analyzing of betatron coupling coefficient equation we stayed only two lenses in each family. As a result family currents for coupling compensation became much lower. In order to decrease vertical dispersion a special algorithm was developed and tested. Vertical dispersion on BPM azimuths was corrected by vertical displacements of sextupoles for chromaticity compensation. Maximal value of the dispersion became four times lower. It leaded to prominent vertical beam size decreasing. | ||
WEPPD008 | Energy Ramping at Siberia-2 | 581 |
|
||
Siberia-2 storage ring has great difference between injection energy 0.45 GeV and working energy 2.5 GeV. Beam lifetime at injection energy is equal to approximately 1 hour. In order to minimize beam losses of the stored beam it is necessary to accelerate energy ramping process. It is not very simple because power supplies of bending magnets, quadrupole lenses and sextupoles have different response time and behavior after changes in regulated current level. Magnetic elements are manufactured from non-laminated iron. It leads to slower field/gradient increasing at high current values. Complicated algorithm with 9 intermediate regimes (collections of power supplies' settings) was developed to produce fast and efficient energy ramping. First, correction of closed orbit, betatron tunes and chromaticity is accomplished in each regime in static conditions. Special file is used to provide acceleration or deceleration of power supplies in dynamic conditions. This scheme allows to compensate betatron tune shifts during energy ramping. Power supplies are not stopped on intermediate regimes; speed of current changing is continuous function of time. This algorithm allowed decreasing ramping time down to 2 minutes 40 seconds. Beam losses are not exceeding 2 – 3%; betatron tune shifts as a rule are lower than 0.01. The algorithm can easily be modified to stop in any intermediate regime. | ||
WEPPD009 | Measurement of Speed of Light Emitted by Ultrarelativistic Source | 584 |
|
||
Funding: The work was supported by the Russian Fundation for Basic Research under Project No.11-02-00538-а. The paper focuses on the results of experiments on direct measurement of speed of the light emitted by an ultrarelativistic source. The source of synchrotron radiation (SR), Siberia-1 electron storage ring at Kurchatov Institute, was used as a pulsed source of light. Experiments were made on the visible part of the SR emitted by ultrarelativistic electron bunch moving along a curved trajectory in the magnetic field of the bending magnet. The measured value of speed of the light pulse in vacuum coincided with the tabular value of the light speed within 0.5%. Results of the measurements support the second postulate of Einstein's special theory of relativity about independence of speed of light from the source velocity. The paper contains schematic of the experiment, description of its components, main parameters of Siberia-1 electron storage ring and electron bunches. Description of the method of direct measurement of light speed as well as experimental oscillograms and calculation data are also presented. |

WEPPD010 | Study of Two Cavities Accelerating Module at SR Source Siberia-2 | 587 |
|
||
SR source Siberia-2 RF system includes an accelerating module consisting of two 181 MHz cavities powered by one amplifier. Some problem occured now is the accelerating voltage instubility under high beam currents conditions. The phase shift between the voltages at cavities causes the asymmetry in beam loading and detuning of cavities. To study the performances of accelerating module, the analytical description has been developed. The whole system can be characterized by seven parameters. These base parameters give the relations of voltages and currents in system. Measurements determine the real values of the base parameters. Set of non linear equations recived can be reduced to the voltages and currents in system as the functions of beam current and energy. The results can be applied to injection and ramping in Siberia-2. | ||
WEPPD052 | Modernization of the Automated Control System in the Kurchatov Synchrotron Radiation Source | 659 |
|
||
The running cycle of Kurchatov Synchrotron Radiation Source (KSRS) includes the injection of electrons with energy 80 MeV from the linear accelerator in the booster storage ring Siberia-1, the accumulation of a electron current up to 300 mA and, then, electron energy ramping up to 450 MeV with the subsequent extraction of electrons in the main ring, storage ring Siberia-2, and accumulation there up to 200 mA, and at last the energy ramping up to 2.5 GeV. The current automated control system (ACS) of the accelerating-storage complex (ASC) "SIBERIA" was established more than 20 years ago on the basis of the control equipment in the CAMAC standard. It is physically and morally outdated and does not meet modern requirements for speed, accuracy and speed of data transmission. This paper presents some options for replacing the old control system ESC to more modern components, using high-speed processor modules VME, and high-speed industrial network CAN. | ||
WEPPD053 | New Electron Beam Reference Orbit Measurement System at Dedicated Synchrotron Radiation Light Source SIBERIA-2 | 662 |
|
||
The paper focuses on the project of the electron beam closed orbit measurement system at SR source SIBERIA-2 realizing at present time at Kurchatov Institute. The main purpose of new closed orbit measurement system creation is an improvement of the electron beam diagnostic system at storage ring. In addition, it will be a part of fast feedback system which will damp the distortions of the closed orbit at SIBERIA-2. This system provides continuous measurements of the electron beam closed orbit during storing, ramping and operation for users. Besides, with the help of the system it is possible to carry out turn-by-turn measurements of the electron beam trajectory during injection process. The paper describes the new orbit measurement system, the principle of operation and its technical characteristics. | ||
THXCH01 | MARS: Fourth Generation X-Ray Light Source Based on Multiturn Energy-Recovery Linac | 123 |
|
||
In the recent years, Russian government and scientific society have been coming gradually to an understanding the way of development science in Russia. Government have accepted a program of building six mega-science projects, and one of them can be a new 4-th generation x-ray light source based on accelerator-recuperator. Multiturn energy recovery linacs (ERL) looks very promising for making modern synchrotron radiation sources, being less expensive and more flexible. At this time only one multiturn ERL exists. This Novosibirsk ERL operates with two orbits and two free electron lasers based on one linac now. The conception of Multiturn Accelerator-recuperator Radiation Source (MARS) was proposed in 1997 by G.N. Kulipanov, A.N. Skrinsky and N.A. Vinokurov. The use of the ERL with two separated accelerating structures allows to exclude main disadvantages of scheme with one linac, such as the pass of electron bunches with different energies through the same magnetic arcs. The feasibility study for such ERL-based high brightness x-ray source is presented. | ||
