Measurement of Beam Lifetime and Applications for SPEAR3
نویسندگان
چکیده
Beam lifetime studies for the SPEAR3 storage ring are presented. The three lifetime components are separated with lifetime measurements under various combinations of beam currents and fill patterns and vertical scraper scans. Touschek lifetime is studied with rf voltage scans and with the horizontal or vertical scrapers inserted. The measurements are explained with calculations based on the calibrated lattice model. Quantum lifetime measurements are performed with reduced longitudinal and horizontal apertures, respectively, from which we deduce the radiation energy loss down to a few keV per revolution and the horizontal beam size.

Photocathode Studies for the Spear3 Injector Rf Gun*
The electron gun for the SPEAR3 injector operates with a warm thermionic dispenser cathode immersed in a 1.5-cell RF structure. At each injection cycle the gun accelerates several thousand electron bunches up to ~3 MeV during a 2.5us rf pulse. The individual bunches are then compressed by an alpha magnet and a travellingwave chopper selects 3-5 bunches so they don’t cause beam loading to the li...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics in the Spear3 Double-waist Chicane*
One of the two 7.6 m long straight sections in SPEAR3 has been divided into two short straights to provide places for two new small-gap insertion devices (IDs) [1,2]. A chicane generates an angular separation of 10 mrad between the two straights. A quadrupole triplet has been added in the center of the 7.6 m long chicane to create a ‘double-waist chicane’ optics with βy=1.6 m at the center of e...
متن کاملResonant Spin Depolarisation Measurements at the Spear3 Electron Storage Ring
Accurate electron beam energy measurements are valuable for precision lattice modelling of high-brightness light sources. At SPEAR3 the beam energy was measured using the resonant spin depolarisation method with striplines to resonantly excite the spin tune and a sensitive NaI scintillator beam loss monitor to detect resulting changes in Touschek lifetime. Using the combined apparatus an electr...
متن کاملRadiation Safety Considerations for Design of the Spear3 Storage Ring*
The SPEAR3 storage ring at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL) is an upgrade of the existing SPEAR2 ring to a 3-generation storage ring with beam parameters of 3 GeV of electron beam energy, 18 nm-radian emittance and up to 500 mA of circulating current. While the existing injector will not be changed, the 234-m-circumference SPEAR2 ring components will be completely replaced w...

Introduction: The present study aimed to measure the scatter and leakage dose received by out-of-field organs while delivering Radiotherapy (RT) treatment of cervical cancer. Moreover, this study estimated the risk of second cancer (SC). The doses to out-of-field organs were measured using a lithium fluoride (TLD 100) dosimeter while delivering External Beam Radiothera...
