Lattice upgrade, consisting of replacing the conventional bending magnets with super-bend locally, constructing two double-mini-𝛽y optics (DMB) and installing a superconducting wiggler (SCW), was implemented in the Beamline-Project of Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF). The symmetry of the SSRF storage ring was completely destroyed, forcing the global optics to be modified. The...
To enhance the performance of the Swiss Light Source (SLS) at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), a comprehensive upgrade known as SLS 2.0 is currently underway (2021–2026). This ambitious project involves the renewal of the storage ring, achieving 40 times lower emittance in user operation mode, thereby significantly increasing the source brightness, and enabling groundbreaking research...
At the Fermilab Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA), we are
carrying out a research program on the statistical and quantum-optical
properties of undulator radiation from electron bunches down to single
electrons [1]. As a result of this program, novel beam diagnostic
techniques have been developed. From the intensity fluctuations of
undulator radiation, it is possible to infer very...
DAΦNE is an electron-positron collider operating at INFN-LNF. Bunch-by-bunch feedback systems installed in each of the two rings allow to store high-intensity and stable beams, by counteracting strong coupled-bunch instabilities due to e-cloud and RF higher-order modes. These feedback systems can be also used as a diagnostic tool which is able to measure beam parameters which are important for...
