APS storage ring vacuum system
- Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois 60439 (United States)
The advanced Photon Source synchrotron radiation facility, under construction at the argonne National Laboratory, incorporates a large ring for the storage of 7 GeV positrons for the generation of photon beams for the facility's experimental program. The Storage Ring's 1104 m circumference is divided into 40 functional sectors. The sectors include vacuum, beam transport, control, acceleration and insertion device components. The vacuum system, which is designed to operate at a pressure of 1 nTorr, consists of 240 connected sections, the majority of which are fabricated from an aluninum alloy extrusion. The sections are equipped with distributed NeG pumping, photon absorbers with lumped pumping, beam position monitors, vacuum diagnostics and valving. The detaileds of the vacuum system design, selected results of the development program and general construction plans are presented.
