I.FAST Workshop 2025 on Stability of Storage Ring Based Light Sources

Mar 16, 2025, 6:30 PM → Mar 21, 2025, 2:30 PM Europe/Berlin

KARA large seminar room in building 348 (KIT North Campus)

 

For future synchrotron light sources with ultra-low emittance beams, the stability of the light source is of paramount importance in order to exploit the properties of the high quality beams. Beam stability issues have been addressed as one of the relevant topics in synchrotron light sources from hardware and beam dynamics aspects, including the time range from sub-microseconds to years. The aim of the workshop is to share the latest information and knowledge on beam dynamics in order to understand and improve beam stability and the hardware relevant to ensure stability of beam operation. 

The stability workshop is divided into two parts to ensure networking between the beam dynamics and hardware sides. The first part of the workshop will focus on beam dynamics issues related to stability, and the second part will have sessions where mainly hardware issues will be discussed. To ensure networking between two scientific areas, a joint experimental campaign will be organised between two workshop parts, where participants will jointly participate in beam stability related experiments at the Karlsruhe Research Accelerator KARA.
