  ELBE is a linac based cw electron accelerator serving different secondary beams one at a time. Depending on the user demand the bunch repetition rate may vary from single pulse up to 13 MHz. For the future different end stations should be served simultaneously, hence specific bunch patterns have to be kicked to other beam-lines. To use e.g. one bunch out of the bunch train very short kicking durations have to be realized. The variability of the bunch pattern and the frequency resp. switching time are one of the main arguments for a stripline-kicker combined with HV-switches as basic concept. A nearly homogenous field in the kicker has to be realized for uniform deflection of the electron bunch and emittance grow of the bunch has to be kept as low as possible. Furthermore the fast switching ability of the kicker demands for a fast decay of the HV-pulse resp. its reflections in the structure implying a specific design of the kicker elements. For this reason a design with two tapered active electrodes and two ground fenders was optimized in time and frequency domain with the software package CST. Additionally a first prototype was manufactured for laboratory and first beam-line tests.

  SESAME (Synchrotron Radiation Light Source in Allan, Jordan) consists of an 800 MeV injector (original from BESSY I, Berlin, Germany) and a 2.5 GeV storage ring. Extraction out of the Booster is done by means of a bumper, a delay-line kicker, and a direct driven in-vacuum septum. This paper will present the injection procedure into the storage ring. Simulations of the injection process are compared to the results obtained during commissioning

  The High Energy Photon Source (HEPS), a kilometer-scale storage ring light source with the energy of 6GeV is to be built in China. For the injection scheme of the stor-age ring, on-axis injection is the baseline scheme. To simultaneously accommodate on-axis accumulation and swap-out injection schemes, we designed two high energy transport lines. In this paper we will report the detailed design of these two transport lines, including the layout and lattice design.

Hefei Advanced Light Source (HALS) is a newly designed diffraction-limited synchrotron radiation source with an energy of 2GeV and a natural emittance of 18.4 pm. A project to build test facility of this new light source has been approved and funded in 2017. Among many key subsystems, the injection system of HALS is a very important one. Both on-axis swap out, on-axis longitudinal accumulation and off-axis single multipole kicker injection are considered. For on-axis fast kicker injection, basic parameters of the system are given. Layout of kickers and septums are presented. For off-axis multipole injection, non-linear kickers (NLK) draw much attention in recent years, various studies have been carried out in many laboratories. But it suffered from low injection efficiency and has not been used in routine operation. In this paper, we propose a new ferrite-loaded non-linear kicker (FNLK) and a prototype FNLK has been developed and tested. Compared to the air bus design of NLK, the FNLK not only improves the flat region of magnetic field but also reduce the error sensitivity of bars' position.

  Pulsed multipole magnet (PM) has zero magnetic field at the centre, therefore it introduces no perturbation to the stored beam. It has been demonstrated that this injection scheme is able to minimise the oscillation of the stored beam, and thus make it suitable for top-up operation. To investigate the suitability of employing this injection method at Siam Photon Source, PM was modelled and optimised for best performance using particle tracking based method. This work presents injection optimisation process with PM considering various constraints such as position of injected beam, injection conditions, and effects of installed IDs.

The ALS upgrade to a diffraction-limited light source (ALS-U Project) relies on a swap-out injection scheme, where the circulating current is maintained constant by injecting on-axis fresh bunch trains, replacing old trains, which are simultaneously extracted. The realization of a stripline kicker to perform such an operation presents several challenges in terms of optimal matching to the pulser, contributions to the beam coupling impedance, and dissipation of the power deposited by the stored beam. To test our design choices for the ALS-U kicker, we have built and installed on the ALS a kicker with characteristics similar to the design for the ALS-U, as the more challenging aspects of the project are concerned. In particular, while the small distance between stripline electrodes reduces the required pulser voltage, the extreme proximity of the circulating beam requires a careful evaluation of the interaction between beam and kicker. In this paper we present the first measurements with beam, after the test kicker installation, together with the results of bench measurements performed on a cold model and computer simulations.

DASEL (Dark Sector Experiments at LCLS-II) is a new accelerator and detector facility proposed to be built at SLAC. Its primary target is a direct observation of dark matter produced in electron-nuclear fixed-target collisions. DASEL takes advantage of the LCLS-II free electron laser (FEL) under construction at SLAC which will deliver a continuous electron beam from a 4-GeV superconducting linac. DASEL will operate parasitically to the LCLS-II FEL by extracting low intensity unused dark current bunches downstream of the FEL kickers. The DASEL key accelerator components include a 46-MHz gun laser system providing controlled intensity and timing of the dark current, a fast (MHz) kicker with 600-ns flat-top, a new transport line connecting the LCLS-II to the existing A-line and to End Station-A where the experiments will take place, and a spoiler and collimator system in the A-line for final shaping of the DASEL beam. An overview of the DASEL accelerator system is presented.
