| Abstract |
DELTA is a 1.5-GeV synchrotron light source operated by the TU Dortmund University. The beam lifetime, which is a critical issue for user operation of a light source, was studied experimentally and by simulation for different operation modes, i.e. single-bunch and multibunch fill patterns and for different beam currents. The electron loss rate is dominated by residual-gas scattering (Coulomb scattering and Bremsstrahlung) and by electron-electron scattering (Touschek effect). Since these processes depend in different ways on the momentum acceptance of the storage ring, a variation of the RF cavity voltage allows to disentangle their respective contributions to the total loss rate. The experimental results lead to a consistent picture for different operation modes with a characteristic dependence of the residual-gas pressure on the beam current.
