STUDIES OF BEAM DYNAMICS OF A COMPACT STORAGE-RING USING SUPERCONDUCTING BENDING MAGNETS

A compact storage ring has been designed with a method that uses a numerical integration of exact equations of motion and exact three-dimensional magnetic fields measured. A beam test has shown that betatron tunes and chromaticities can be calculated within accuracies of 0.2% and 10%, respectively. An agreement of measured and calculated closed orbit errors and the good corrections have shown that an alignment of nonisomagnetic bending magnets, the manufacture of coils, and measurements of magnetic fields have been made accurately. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
