KEKB operation with skew sextupole magnets

  • 1. High Energy Accelerator Research Organization, Tsukuba, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

A new set of magnets, the skew sextupole magnets, were designed, manufactured and installed in the KEKB tunnel during the three month shutdown of January, February and March, 2009. Twenty magnets were installed in the HER and eight magnets were installed in the LER, respectively. The skew sextupole magnets are used to correct for the chromatic x-y coupling at the interaction point (IP). A significant luminosity boost was achieved. The skew magnet outline and operation with these magnets are described in this report. (author)
