What are the XBPMs? • principle:4 blades of Tungsten read the tails of the photon beam. Beamposition • deduced by asymmetries. Design of K. Holldack (BESSY), produced by FMB (Berlin). Front end of ID beamlines (top view) (front view) Source point XBPM1 XBPM2 Beam profile xBPM2 XBPM1 Front end of Bending beamlines (top view) (frontview) SPM1 Source point SPM1 SPM2 SPM2 Beam profile

XBPM Feedback XBPM2 XBPM1 • Fast Orbit Feedback (100 Hz) corrects electron beam movements. Based on readings of DBPMs. • Problem:reference of DBPMs is not static. Fluctuations (μm level) due to: • Air temperature variation at location of DBPM electronics • Temperature changes in SLS tunnel due to beam loss • Solution:XBPM feedback (slow: 0.5 Hz) photon beam changes = angle variation of orbit at source point → changes the reference of DBPMs • Update: fast XBPM feedback (implies hardware upgrade).

XBPMs and Feed forward Move gap • Feed forward (IDFF) corrects a priori distortions due to ID gap changes. (currently for in-vacuum undulators) • Acts on correctors upstream and downstream of the ID. → good efficiency to stabilise electron beam. → but internal ID steering effects cause displacement of photon beam. • Therefore, XBPMs are included in IDFF determination procedure (high level: Java): • IDFF tables implemented on low level EPICS based control system (10 Hz). Step 2 Step 1 Observe effect on photon beam position Observe effect on electron orbit Deduce correction kicks on electron orbit Apply correction

Conclusion • XBPMs at SLS: XBPMs feedback (slow) part of FOFB (bending+ in vacuum ID beamlines) XBPMs used to create feedforward tables (in-vacuum ID beamlines) • Future: XBPM feedback becomes fast feedback feedback and feedforward for all ID beamlines • XBPMs in the world: Developed at BESSY Recently bought for SOLEIL and DIAMOND Interest of ALS Deep involvement of SLS
