The SPEAR3 Upgrade Project at SLAC

Creators

Description

A major upgrade of an existing synchrotron light source at SLAC was completed in December 2003. A new machine called SPEAR3 will operate at 3 GeV with a current of 500 mA. Presently it is fully operational at 100 mA. From an alignment perspective the primary goal was to fiducialize and position newly manufactured magnets and vacuum chambers in the ring to better than 250 (micro)m globally. A critical complication was to recreate the old position of the orbital beam path in the new ring so that some existing tangential beamlines could be preserved. This paper will cover the survey and alignment techniques and results of this new ring
