Coupling control and optimization at the Canadian Light Source

摘要

We present a detailed study using the skew quadrupoles in the Canadian Light Source storage ring lattice to control the parameters of a coupled lattice. We calculate the six-dimensional beam envelop matrix and use it to produce a variety of objective functions for optimization using the Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) algorithm. MOPSO produces a number of skew quadrupole configurations that we apply to the storage ring. We use the X-ray synchrotron radiation diagnostic beamline to image the beam and we make measurements of the vertical dispersion and beam lifetime. We observe satisfactory agreement between the measurements and simulations. These methods can be used to adjust phase space coupling in a rational way and have applications to fine-tuning the vertical emittance and Touschek lifetime and measuring the gas scattering lifetime.
