Title: Beam position monitor gate functionality implementation and applications

Abstract

We introduce a novel technique to implement gate functionality for the beam position monitors (BPM) at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II). The functionality, now implemented in FPGA, allows us to acquire two separated bunch-trains’ synchronized turn-by-turn (TBT) data simultaneously with the NSLS-II in-house developed BPM system. The gated position resolution is improved about 3 times by narrowing the sampling width. Experimentally we demonstrated that the machine lattice could be transparently characterized with the gated TBT data of a short diagnostic bunch-train Cheng et al., 2017; Li et al., 2017. Other applications, for example, precisely characterizing storage ring impedance/wake-field through recording the beam positions of two separated bunch trains has been experimentally demonstrated.
