NSLS-II longitudinal impedance budget

Abstract

From the beginning of the NSLS-II project, the vacuum chamber of the NSLS-II storage ring has been optimized to reduce its impedance. The optimization, performed in close collaboration with the Diagnostic, Vacuum, RF, and Mechanical Engineering groups, has been achieved via calculating the impedance of the vacuum chamber components with the use of both analytical and numerical tools, with the numerical computations carried out with the GdfidL code. Fore reliable NSLS-II operation with the total beam current of 500 mA, each component of the vacuum chamber has been individually optimized to minimize the beam-induced heating and to prevent single-bunch and coupled-bunch instabilities. In this study, the impedance calculation and optimization know-how are summarized for all the chamber components, and the total longitudinal impedance budget is analyzed. As a result of this extensive research and engineering effort, the design beam current of 500 mA has been recently accumulated in NSLS-II without any major problem caused by collective effects.

Design and Integration of High Precision Superconducting Magnet Power Supply Systems

This paper reviews the design and integration approach being taken to power more than 400 superconducting magnets in Electron Ion Collider (EIC) by power supplies ranging from 20V to 400V and 100A to 18kA. A major challenge is to integrate existing legacy power supplies with new high current systems and maximize performance and reduce costs. Successful implementation requires coordinated integration of power convertors, current regulation, quench protection, energy extraction, machine protection, controls and existing accelerator infrastructure.

Searching for the Most Harmful Field Errors in the HSR IR Superconducting Magnets

In this project, we improve beam stability for the Electron-Ion Collider. Magnetic field errors can reduce beam stability, making it essential to identify the field errors that have the greatest impact on accelerator performance. However, this is particularly challenging because beam stability depends on the complex interactions of many magnetic field errors, resulting in a high-dimensional and nonlinear optimization problem. We determine which field errors are the most influential for the large physical aperture superconducting magnet B2PF, a critical magnet in the Interaction Region (IR) in the Hadron Storage Ring (HSR). We complete and analyze nearly 30,000 simulations on the Brookhaven National Laboratory Linux Cluster by varying 18 nonlinear magnetic field errors. We evaluate beam stability using the dynamic aperture and the tune diffusion. We identify the field errors that most strongly influence beam stability and establish quantitative field error tolerances that improve accelerator performance.
