Advances in orbit drift correction in the advanced photon source storage ring
The Advanced Photon Source storage ring is required to provide X-ray beams of high positional stability, specified as 17 {mu}m rms in the horizontal plane and 4.4 {mu}m rms in the vertical plane. The author reports on the difficult task of stabilizing the slow drift component of the orbit motion down to a few microns rms using workstation-based orbit correction. There are two aspects to consider separately the correction algorithm and the configuration of the beam position monitors (BPMs) and correctors. Three notable features of the correction algorithm are: low-pass digital filtering of BPM readbacks; {open_quotes}despiking{close_quotes} of the filtered orbit to desensitize the orbit correction to spurious BPM readbacks without having to change the correction matrix; and BPM intensity-dependent offset compensation. The BPM/corrector configuration includes all of the working BPMs but only a small set of correctors distributed around the ring. Thus only those orbit modes that are most likely to be representative of real beam drift are handled by the correction algorithm.
