AbstractDesigning a vacuum chamber for the Elliptically Polarized Undulator (EPU) in the SPS-II storage ring presents challenges due to a constrained bore aperture, minimal clearance between magnet poles, and requirements for synchrotron radiation delivery. This study focuses on a vacuum chamber design that accommodates the large opening angle necessary for EPU operation. A complex transition cross-section was developed to achieve the required beam aperture while maintaining compatibility with the magnet structure. The limited clearance of 0.5 mm between the chamber and magnets necessitates precision machining and fabrication. Structural reinforcements were added to the thin sections of the chamber to ensure mechanical stability, and a specialized welding approach was implemented to minimize deformation. The chamber is fixed to supports designed to control thermal deformation during operation. Finite element analysis (FEA) evaluates the chamber’s structural performance, including stress, safety factors, and deformation, confirming the design meets the operational requirements for EPU applications in the SPS-II storage ring.
