| Title | Improvement on beam-based alignment methods by reliability weighted average technique |
| Authors |

| Abstract | Accurate determination of magnet centres seen by beams is the key to a successful commissioning of a particle accelerator storage ring. In this paper, several techniques to improve the beam-based alignment for a circular accelerator storage ring are introduced. Firstly, a formula to propagate the uncertainties from linear fitting is given. Secondly, a reliability weighted averaging technique based on uncertainties are applied to mitigate the impact of outliers. Thirdly, studies show that the accuracy and precision of quadrupole centre locations can be refined by using multiple corrector magnets in the process. Finally, to improve the efficiency when using multiple correctors, a monte-carlo technique is utilized. The resulting distributions of all BPM-to-Quad offset residuals derived from simulations are presented. |
