Performance of the First Superconducting Cold-Bore Undulator in an Electron Storage Ring

摘要

In March 2005 a superconducting cold-bore undulator was installed in ANKA (ANSTROEM SOURCE IN KARLSRUHE) and since that time has been in operation. The purpose of the installation was to evaluate if such a device can be operated in a heavy duty synchrotron radiation user facility like ANKA without problems. In order to demonstrate this the generated spectra were measured and the heat load induced by the beam was investigated. It was shown that the heat deposited by the beam in the 8 mm gap is less than 1 W per 100 mA at 2.5 GeV and can be cooled by cryocoolers. Finally, reference is made to the spectra produced by sub-picosecond X-rays using a special ANKA optics.
