Thermo-mechanical analysis of the white-beam slits for a wiggler/undulator beamline at the Advanced Photon Source

Description: A set of precision, vertical, white-beam slits has been designed for an undulator/wiggler beamline at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). The slit, a knife-edge-type precision device, is required to have very small thermal distortion during operation with beam. The traditional slit consists of a cooling block and an OFHC cooling channel inside the block. Our design consists of one large block and an OFHC cooling tune (filler with copper mesh) brazed inside the large block. This design will accomm… more

Beamline standard component designs for the Advanced Photon Source

Description: The Advanced Photon Source (APS) has initiated a design standardization and modularization activity for the APS synchrotron radiation beamline components. These standard components are included in components library, sub-components library and experimental station library. This paper briefly describes these standard components using both technical specifications and side view drawings.

First prototype undulator for the LCLS project - mechanical design and prototype lessons.

Description: The design of a new hybrid-type undulator with a fixed gap of 6 mm, a period of 30 mm, and a length of 3.4 m is presented. The undulator line, consisting of 33 such units, is a critical part of the LCLS project, which is one step toward the design of a fourth-generation synchrotron radiation source. Magnetic tolerance of all 33 undulators, as well as the corresponding mechanical uniformity, is a major challenge. A ridged C-shape design with a titanium housing of 12 inch diameter was chosen to p… more

A new gap separation mechanism for APS insertion devices.

Description: A new gap separation mechanism for use with the standard Advanced Photon Source (APS) 3.3-cm-period undulator magnetic structures has been designed and built and the first system has been installed in the APS storage ring. The system allows a minimum magnetic gap of 10 mm for use with the APS 8-mm insertion device vacuum chambers. The mechanism is a bolted steel frame structure with a simple 4-motor mechanical drive train. The control system uses servomotors with incremental rotary encoders and… more

Design of high heat load white-beam slits for wiggler/undulator beamlines at the Advanced Photon Source

Description: A set of horizontal and vertical white-beam slits has been designed for the Advanced Photon Source wiggler/undulator beamlines at Argonne National Laboratory. While this slit set can handle the high heat flux from on e APS undulator source, it has large enough aperture to be compatible with a wiggler source also. A grazing-incidence, knife-edge configuration has been used in the design to eliminate downstream X-ray scattering. Enhanced heat transfer technology has been used in the water-cooling… more

An electromagnetic helical undulator for polarized x-rays

Description: Linearly and circularly polarized x-rays have been very successfully applied to the study of the properties of materials. Many applications can benefit from the availability of energy-turnable, high-brilliance x-ray beams with adjustable polarization properties. A helical undulator that can generate beams of variable (linear to circular) polarization has been designed and built by the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics and the Advanced Photon Source. The first harmonic of this 12.8-cm-period d… more
