6. Overview of Vacuum Activities at Laboratory for Elementary-Particle Physics

Dr Yulin Li (Laboratory for Elementary-Particel Physics, Cornell University)

11/04/2005, 14:15

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

An overview of Rutherford Appleton laboratory main activities with a quick look at ISIS and its recent upgrades.

8. SPring-8 vacuum system

Dr Hiroshi Saeki (JAPAN SYNCHROTRON RADIATION RESEARCH INSTITUTE)

11/04/2005, 14:25

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...

11. Overview of GANIL and SPIRAL 2 project

Mr Patrick Dolegieviez (GANIL)

11/04/2005, 14:30

SESSION 1

This presentation gives a description of the laboratory and its activities. An overview of the SPIRAL 2 project is given with its specific environmental constraints.

12. Proton Cyclotron Vacuum System at TRIUMF.

Dr Igor Sekachev (TRIUMF, Canadian National Laboratory)

11/04/2005, 14:35

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...

19. Vacuum systems and vacuum development at The Svedberg laboratory

Prof. Lars Westerberg (The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala University)

11/04/2005, 14:40

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....

22. The DESY Vacuum Systems

Dr Mike Seidel (DESY)

11/04/2005, 14:45

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.

24. The SIS18 UHV-upgrade program for high ion beam intensity operation of medium charged heavy ions

Dr Hartmut Reich-Sprenger (Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung GSI)

11/04/2005, 14:50

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...

28. AT Vacuum Group: A CERN Wide Mandate

Dr Jose Miguel Jimenez (CERN)

11/04/2005, 14:55

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...

29. What’s New at the SNS;SCL Installation, Warm Sections

Dr Peter Ladd (ORNL)

11/04/2005, 15:00

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...
