Studies of closed orbit correction and slow orbit feedback for the SSRF storage ring

Details of the active ways to suppress Closed Orbit Distortion （COD）, including bending magnet sorting and survey and alignment of the magnets, are discussed based on the studies of affections to the COD by the bending magnet field error and the misalignment of quadrupoles. The closed orbit correction and the Slow Orbit Feed Back （SOFB） system for the SSRF storage ring are presented in this paper. With these available methods, better results were obtained during the commissioning period with 3 GeV beam energy.     

Orbit response matrix analysis and lattice periodicity restoration of the SSRF storage ring

In this paper, we present numerically and experimentally the linear beam-optics distortion in the SSRF storage ring and the correction of optics by using a number of quadrupole magnets installed in the storage ring. The measured orbit-response matrices were fitted to the model-response matrices to obtain the β and the dispersion functions in the storage ring. By readjusting the currents of quadrupole-magnet power supplies, we were able to successfully restore the optics parameters to values very close to the design ones, with rms deviations around 1%. This periodicity restoration is verified with the β function measurement.     

The beam-based calibration of an X-ray pinhole camera at SSRF

A pinhole camera for imaging X-ray synchrotron radiation from a dipole magnet is now in operation at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) storage ring. The electron beam size is derived by unfolding the radiation image and the point spread function (PSF) with deconvolution techniques. The performance of the pinhole is determined by the accuracy of the PSF measurement. This article will focus on a beam-based calibration scheme to measure the PSF system by varying the beam images with different quadrupole settings and fitting them with the corresponding theoretical beam sizes. Applying this method at SSRF, the PSF value of the pinhole is revised from 37 to 44 μm. The deviation in beam size between the theoretical value and the measured value is minimized to 4% after calibration. This optimization allows us to observe the horizontal disturbance due to injection down to as small as 0.5 μm.     

上海质子医疗装置的涡流效应

 涡流效应是较快重复频率加速器必须考虑的问题。涡流效应引入的六极、四极、二极分量,以及发热效应都会对环的参数如色品、工作点、共振、能量漂移等产生影响。通过计算引入不同效应的强度,模拟了各种效应对环参数的影响,并针对不同升能曲线和升能频率引入涡流效应的计算和比较,得出了在目前考虑的频率范围内,对主环影响较大的效应为六极场,其它效应的影响需要较大的重复频率。并以此为依据选择了最终的工作曲线为半正弦,上升时间为0.7 s。     

Linear optics calibration and nonlinear optimization during the commissioning of the SSRF storage ring

Phase I commissioning of the SSRF storage ring on 3.0 GeV beam energy was started at the end of December 2007. A lot of encouraging results have been obtained so far. In this paper, calibrations of the linear optics during the commissioning are discussed, and some measured results about the nonlinearity given. Calibration procedure emphasizes correcting quadrupole magnetic coefficients with the Linear Optics from Closed Orbit (LOCO) technique. After fitting the closed orbit response matrix, the linear optics of the four test modes is substantially corrected, and the measured physical parameters agree well with the designed ones.     

DEPU对上海光源储存环的影响与补偿

上海光源储存环安装了一套由两台椭圆极化波荡器组成的插入件（DEPU）,该插入件尤其是其中一台椭圆极化波荡器的积分场误差引起了闭轨畸变、工作点漂移、耦合度变化、动力学孔径减小等多种效应,这些效应对上海光源储存环的正常运行造成了极大影响。采用校正线圈前馈将最大闭轨畸变降低到10 m的水平,采用四极铁强度前馈将工作点漂移控制在0.001左右,采用斜四极铁前馈将耦合度很好地控制在0.1%左右。通过六极铁在线优化解决了动力学孔径退化的问题,将注入效率保持在80%以上。在接近4年的运行中,补偿方案工作表现很好,轨道补偿的前馈还在不断地完善中。

基于LOCO的上海光源储存环线性光学参数校正

 为了测量和校正线性光学参数,在上海光源储存环调束过程当中使用了基于响应矩阵的线性光学参数分析(LOCO)的方法。介绍了应用LOCO进行计算和校正的过程,包括：数值模拟得到束流位置探测器的测量精度对拟合结果的影响,调整四极铁电源电流强度来校正工作点和beta函数周期性的恢复。测量结果表明,在四极铁强度调整幅度在1.5%以内的情况下,储存环的束流光学参数成功地恢复到和设计值相当接近的状态,beta函数和色散函数畸变小于1%。通过束流光学参数的校正,使得在今后的工作当中可以轻松地控制储存环的工作模式。     

Sorting of bending magnets for the SSRF booster

The Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF)booster ring, a full energy injector for the storage ring, is deigned to accelerate the electron beam energy from 150MeV to 3.5GeV that demands high extraction efficiency at the extraction energy with low beam loss rate when electrons are ramping. Closed orbit distortion (COD) caused by bending magnet field uniformity errors which affects the machine performance harmfully could be effectively reduced by bending magnet location sorting. Considering the affections of random errors in measurement, both ideal sorting and realistic sorting are studied based on measured bending magnet field uniformity errors and one reasonable combination of bending magnets which can reduce the horizontal COD by a factor of 5 is given as the final installation sequence of the booster bending magnets in this paper.
