COMMISSIONING OF THE LNLS 500-MeV BOOSTER SYNCHROTRON
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present results of the commissioning of a new injector for the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Source. The new injector consists of the existing 125-MeV LINAC and a new 500-MeV booster synchrotron. At present, about 40 mA can be injected into the booster and about 15 mA can be ramped up to 500 MeV at a repetition rate of 0.17 Hz. The new injector has allowed the accumulation of up to 540 mA in the main ring at 500 MeV and up to 305 mA has been ramped up to the storage ring nominal energy of 1.37 GeV. The new beam intensity is more than twice as large as the typical stored beam current before the installation of the booster synchrotron.

Septum and Kicker Pulsers for the LNLS 500-MeV Booster Synchrotron
Brazilian National Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS) has commissioned its new 500-MeV booster synchrotron injector. In this paper we present an overview of the septum and kicker pulse circuits now in operation. Half-sine wave septum current pulses range from 6.1 kA to 7.3 kA with widths around 80 μs. Injection and extraction kicker circuits are capable of delivering currents up to 650 A and 1...
متن کاملThe Lnls Booster Synchrotron Dipole Magnets
* [email protected] Abstract The Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS) has just constructed and commissioned a 500 MeV booster synchrotron to be used as injector for the 1.37 GeV electron storage ring. The booster has been constructed inside the storage ring, where the constraints in space are very tight. For this reason, the booster dipoles were made as small as possible, i.e., with small cu...
متن کاملStatus of the Injector System for the Synchrotron Light Source Anka
ANKA is a 2.5 GeV synchrotron light source under construction at the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe. The facility consists of a 53 MeV microtron, an injection line, a 500 MeV booster synchrotron, and the ejection line. The whole injector is being built as a turn key system by the industry (Danfysik, Denmark). The interface between the injector and the storage ring is the entrance of the injection ...
متن کاملDiagnostics during the Alba Booster Commissioning
The ALBA Booster is a synchrotron designed to accelerate electron beams from 100 MeV to 3GeV in a 3Hz cycle. The maximum pulse coming from the ALBA Linac provides 5 mA in the Booster. In order to check all the Booster sub-systems, a Booster pre-commissioning took place during two weeks in January 2010. This paper presents the Diagnostics elements installed in the ALBA Booster and our experience...
متن کاملCommissioning of the Swiss Light Source
The Swiss Light Source (SLS) at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) consists of a turn key 100 MeV linac, a novel type of booster synchrotron and a 12-TBA storage ring providing 5 nm·rad natural emittance at 2.4 GeV. The SLS project was approved by Swiss Government in Sept. 1997. By June 1999 the building was finished. Linac and booster commissioning concluded by April, resp. Sept. 2000. First be...
