Overview of Top-up Injection at Taiwan Light Source
- National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center, No. 101, Hsin-Ann Road, Hsin-chu, Taiwan (China)
During the last two years, a series of beam parameters measurement, subsystem checkout, installation of various sensors, control program modification and hardware upgrade made the top-up injection possible in practical routine operation. Top-up injection is an operation mode in which the beam current in the storage ring is maintained above certain level by frequent injections. The routine current stability is in the range of 10-3 for long period of operation. The Top-up injection provides advantages in operation such as lower emittance, higher current, smaller coupling, smaller ID gaps, exotic bunch filling patterns, and higher bunch charge. It also provides constant thermal loading on all components in the storage ring and the optics components of beamlines, as well as constant signal to the beam position monitor. Discussions on the results of some measurements of booster and storage ring, the requirement of hardware upgrade and the summary of routine Top-up operation will be presented in this paper.
