Four units of Digit-500 device have been delivered and are now being tested and used in both SR and Booster. In addition to the more classical use of (Bunch-by-Bunch) beam position measurements we are also exploring the possibilities of high quality (B-b-B) beam charge and even purity measurements by implementing dedicated firmware in the device.
Results are very recent and highly encouraging...
The current Libera Photon has been widely used in the past 8 years as an X-ray Beam Position Monitor. To meet the performance requirements of the last-generation light sources, additional features are requested, such as the interfaces to support Fast Orbit Feedback integration. Based on the requirements we are collecting from the field, we conceptualized a new solution and instrument platform...
In this contribution, we present the global system design for Elettra 2.0 eBPM, including machine timing signals and integration with the Elettra control system, and in particular how the new Global Orbit Feedback 2 (GOF2) has greatly simplified the entire software architecture.
The different functionalities/modalities (first turn, TbT, ecc) will be discussed as well as their implementation....
Noise evaluation in modern eBPM systems for accelerators can be a difficult task, since their complexity allows a plethora of noise sources of different types.
To simplify the calculations during the system design, we propose to split the analysis into two sections: the pickups (as passive devices) and the front-end electronics including the conversion section (as active devices). In the...
