SESSION 1
The major vacuum related activity at LEPP, Cornell is centered on the Cornell
Electron Storage Ring (CESR), which consists of a RF Linac, a synchrotron boost ring
and the CESR. We are currently also starting to ramping up vacuum R&D work leading
to the construction of Cornell Energy Recovery Linac (ERL).
This work is supported by US National Science Foundation

SESSION 1
SPring-8 (Super Photon Ring 8 GeV) as a synchrotron radiation source, is operated
and maintained by Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Institute (JASRI) under a
control of RIKEN and JAERI. The facility consists of a 1 GeV linac, a booster
synchrotron (1-8 GeV), and a storage ring with 47 beam lines (maximum designed
beam lines of 62). The average pressure in beam ducts of the linac...

SESSION 1
The proton cyclotron was built at TRIUMF in 1972 and commissioned to full energy in
1974. The volume of the cyclotron vacuum tank is about 100 m**3.The vacuum during
beam production is at 2**10-8 Torr, which is achieved mostly by cryopumping with B-20
cryogenerator and six cryopumps. The B-20 is a Stirling cycle refrigerator, which
supplies helium gas at 16K and 70K to the cryopanels in...

SESSION 1
The k=192 synchrocyclotron is pumped by 2 large diffusion pumps with cryo baffles and
has internal Meissner cryo traps. The CELSIUS storage ring is pumped by a combination of
ion pumps and sublimation pumps. Large H2 and D2 gas loads from the pellet target of
the CELSIUS-WASA experiment are pumped by cryo pumps and NEG pumps to give a low
enough pressure in the electron cooler....

SESSION 1
The brief presentation will cover an overview on the accelerator vacuum
systems presently under operation at DESY. Furthermore a short description
of our activities for the two new projects PETRA III and XFEL will be
given.

Hartmut Reich-Sprenger
(Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung GSI)

SESSION 1
The SIS18 heavy ion synchrotron will operate as an injector for the GSI FAIR
project. UHV instabilities were observed during high ion beam intensity operation
limiting the ion beam lifetime of medium charged heavy ions (e.g. U28+). An intense
upgrade of the existing UHV system was started including an experimental program on
the desorption processes and measures to improve the residual...

SESSION 1
The Vacuum Group, as part of the Accelerator Technology Department, has a wide
mandate covering the design, installation, exploitation and upgrades of all CERN
accelerators including the experimental areas.
This talk will briefly introduce the vacuum specificities of all the accelerators
under the responsibility of the CERN Vacuum Group with a special emphasis on the
ultimate pressure...

SESSION 1
An overview of the installation of the SCL warm sections at the Spallation
Neutron Source (SNS) is presented as the project proceeds on schedule to beam
on target planned for mid 2006. Specifically addressed are the procedures
adopted during the assembly and installation of the warm sections needed to
maintain the cleanliness levels required as they are connected to the...

SESSION 1
ALBA is the Spanish 3GeV, 3rd generation light source to be built near Barcelona.
The circumference of the storage ring is 268.8m with 400mA nominal beam current.
The storage ring will be divided into 16 vacuum sections by gate valves. The vacuum
chamber will be made of stainless steel with electron beam vertical aperture of 28mm
and 72mm width with a slot of 10mm height to connect the...

SESSION 1
Diamond Light Source is new synchrotron light facility currently under construction
in Oxfordshire in the UK. First user beam is scheduled for 2007. Diamond consists
of a 3 GeV electron storage ring 561.6 m in circumference together with a 100 MeV
Linac and a 158.4 m circumference booster ring. 7 experimental beamlines will be
available initially. A brief overview of the Diamond...
