Beam Based Alignment at the KEK-ATF Damping Ring
- SLAC
The damping rings of a future linear collider will have demanding alignment and stability requirements in order to achieve the low vertical emittance necessary for high luminosity. The Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at KEK has successfully demonstrated the vertical emittance below 5 pm that is specified for the GLC/NLC Main Damping Rings. One contribution to this accomplishment has been the use of Beam Based Alignment (BBA) techniques. The mode of operation of the ATF presents particular challenges for BBA, and the authors describe here how they have deduced the offsets of the BPMs with respect to the quadrupoles. They also discuss a technique that allows for direct measurements of the beam-to-quad offsets.
