Commissioning and Early Operation Experience of the NSLS-II Storage Ring RF System

The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a 3 GeV electron X-ray user facility commissioned in 2014. The storage ring RF system, essential for replenishing energy loss per turn of the electrons, consists of digital low level RF controllers, 310 kW CW klystron transmitters, CESR-B type superconducting cavities, as well as a supporting cryogenic system. Here we will report on RF commissioning and early operation experience of the system for beam current up to 200mA.

Commissioning and Early Operation for the NSLS-II Booster RF System

The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is a third generation 3GeV, 500mA synchrotron light source. We discuss the booster synchrotron RF system responsible for providing power to accelerate an electron beam from 200MeV to 3GeV. The RF system design and construction are complete and is currently in the operational phase of the NSLS-II project. Preliminary operational data is also discussed.

NGST OTA Optical Metrology Instrumentation and Conceptual Approaches

An Integrated Product Team (IPT) was formed to develop a detailed concept for optical test methodology for testing of the NGST individual primary, secondary and tertiary mirrors and the full telescope system on the ground. Optical testing is a significant cost driver therefore the testing has to understood in detailed fashion early. A brief summary of the preliminary metrology test plan at the mirror component and telescope system level is presented.
