Last Year of PEP-II B-Factory Operation

Description

The PEP-II B-Factory at SLAC (3.1 GeV e+ x 9.0 GeV e-) operated from 1999 to 2008, delivering luminosity to the BaBar experiment. The design luminosity was reached after one and a half years of operation. In the end PEP-II surpassed by four times its design luminosity reaching 1.21 x 1034 cm-2 s-1. It also set stored beam current records of 2.1 A e- and 3.2 A e+. Continuous injection was implemented with BaBar taking data. The total delivered luminosity to the BaBar detector was 557.4 fb-1 spanning five upsilon resonances. PEP-II was constructed by SLAC, LBNL, and LLNL with help from BINP, IHEP, the BaBar collaboration, and the US DOE OHEP.
