Stretched Bunch Shapes in the Nsls Vuv Ring
نویسنده
چکیده
For bunches stretched with a higher-harmonic cavity, longitudinal bunch shapes are influenced by small variations in the potential wells of the buckets of the bunch train. This paper discusses three things that perturb the bunch shapes in the NSLS VUV ring: the 90 (non-optimal) phase of the harmonic cavity maintained by the RF controls [1], higher-order modes (HOM) of the main cavity, and the effect of unfilled buckets on the RF fields in the accelerating modes of the two cavities. The suppression of the lowest-lying HOM in an experiment using RF feedback applied to two HOM damping-probe ports is described and results of calculations of the effect of unfilled buckets are given. Measured bunch shapes are shown and discussed.

Longitudinal Measurements and Simulations of Stretched Bunches in the Nsls Vuv Ring
Certain longitudinal instabilities in the stretched bunches of the National Synchrotron Light Source Vacuum UltraViolet ring are described and simulated using a code for the integration of the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation (these proceedings). Results for the microwave instability driven by broadband impedance, instability driven by high-Q radio-frequency modes, and response functions in stretc...
متن کاملObservation of coherent synchrotron radiation from the NSLS VUV ring
We report the observation of multiparticle coherent emission in the very far infrared from bunched electrons in an electron storage ring. The emission occurs in quasi-periodic bursts, and only when the electron beam current exceeds a threshold value, suggesting an instability-driven modulation of the electron bunch density. For the operating conditions reported, the spectral content of the cohe...
متن کاملTwo-beam Interference of Long Wavelength Synchrotron Radiation
The synchrotron radiation emitted from the NSLS VUV ring is found to contain significant spectral structure at long wavelengths (λ > 0.5mm), suggesting multiple beam interference effects. A predominant pattern occurs as a result of direct radiation interfering with radiation reflected from the curved outer wall of the electron beam dipole chambers. This structure appears for both normal incoher...
متن کاملThe revitalized NSLS VUV ring
A status report on the revitalization of the NSLS VUV ring will be presented, concentrating on three areas: 1) the four infrared ports (U2A/B, U4IR, U10A/B, and U12IR), 2) conversion of out-of-date toroidal grating monochromators to spherical grating type (U4A, U7A, and U12A), and 3) new insertion device beamlines (U5UA and U13UB). All of these beamlines were designed (new ones) or upgraded (ol...
متن کاملInvestigation of Coherent Emission from the NSLS VUV Ring
Coherent synchrotron radiation from the NSLS VUV ring has been detected and partially characterized. The observations have been performed at the new far infrared beamline U12IR. The coherent radiation is peaked near a wavelength of 7mm and occurs in short duration bursts. The bursts occur only when the electron beam current (I) exceeds a threshold value (Ith), which itself varies with ring oper...
