Identifying Lattice, Orbit, And BPM Errors in PEP-II

Conference ·
OSTI ID:890843
The PEP-II B-Factory is delivering peak luminosities of up to 9.2 {center_dot} 10{sup 33} 1/cm{sup 2} {center_dot} l/s. This is very impressive especially considering our poor understanding of the lattice, absolute orbit and beam position monitor system (BPM). A few simple MATLAB programs were written to get lattice information, like betatron functions in a coupled machine (four all together) and the two dispersions, from the current machine and compare it the design. Big orbit deviations in the Low Energy Ring (LER) could be explained not by bad BPMs (only 3), but by many strong correctors (one corrector to fix four BPMs on average). Additionally these programs helped to uncover a sign error in the third order correction of the BPM system. Further analysis of the current information of the BPMs (sum of all buttons) indicates that there might be still more problematic BPMs.
