Description

Abstract:
In 2017 optics commissioning strategy for low-beta operation underwent a major revision. Where formerly the beam-based commissioning exclusively considered linear dynamics, the new approach is based on a combined commissioning of linear and nonlinear optics. Details of the updated strategy will be reviewed, together with associated impacts on optics quality and operation. New procedures for coupling compensation will be presented, as will requirements for commissioning in 2018.
