Patrick’s Updates - 8/30/11(one slide for each of the following) • XTCAV Project • ASTA Gun Test Facility Instrumentation & Controls • Fast wire scanner project • Sector 0-10 Injector Test Facility Project • An idea for a 2.5 GeV linac SX-Ray FEL
XTCAV Highlights • Long lead time purchases for modulator and TWT Amplifier underway • Design of LLRF controls is based on VME architecture with LCLS PADS, PAC and new MKSU-II handling standby and accelerate trigs. (IOC -TS) • Orders placed for fabrication of second XTCAV structure. • Tunnel penetrations measured during last PAMM and design of waveguide layout started. • Revised B921 layout to move AC switch gear so modulator can be maneuvered into building.
ASTA Gun Test StandInstrumentation and Controls • Small quantities, but at least one of each system required: • LLRF synchronization and timing • Vacuum pumps, gauges and valve controllers • Solenoid, dipole and corrector magnet controllers • 2 BPMs, 2 Prof Monitors, 2 FARCs • Laser motion controls, cameras, diodes ADCs • Separate network, like we did for FACET, with servers, archivers, striptool, messaging. • No MPS. No controls status for PPS, BCS.
Fast Wire Scanner Prototype • Piezo stage with Mikos controller due next month. Radiation test. • Delta Tau controller with linear stage due mid October. • Nia Fong joins the department 10/3 • Magnetic head precision positioner system at IBM
Sector 0-10 Injector Test Facility Project • CD-0 for the Project requires a WBS and Cost Estimate • trying to organize and transfer as much as possible from the LCLS-II project • DOE dictates the formal use of WBS, E-Cost Books and Basis of Estimate Documentation • This project removes more than 2 sectors of accelerator • What shall we do with it!
An idea for a 2.5 GeV linac SX-Ray FEL • Is there a dedicated Soft X-Ray FEL in SLAC’s future? • LCLS-II is trying hard to do it all in one machine. Our forté is high-energy beams for high-power hard x-rays. • Why not take the 200 m of accelerator from sectors 8-9 and build a separate accelerator to operate independently for soft x-rays. Soft x-rays only need short undulators. • LCLS-II can be better optimized for hard x-rays
