ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 MAX IV 3 GeV Ring Commissioning Pedro F. Tavares & Åke Andersson, on behalf of the whole MAX IV team.
ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 Summary ● The MAX IV Facility ● The MAX IV 3 GeV ring ● Commissioning Results ● Conclusions – Next Steps
ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 Conceptual Basis of the MAX IV Design Scientific Case calls for high brightness radiation over a wide spectral and time range: IR to Hard R- rays, Short X-Ray Pulses. Need for high brightness: low emittance and optimized insertion devices. This is hard to achieve in a single machine: higher electron beam energy harder photons lower electron beam energy softer photons One size does not fit all !
ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 The MAX IV Approach ● Different machines for different uses: A high energy ring with ultra-low emittance for hard X-ray users. A low emittance low energy ring for soft radiation users A LINAC based source for generating short pulses and allowing for future development of FEL source.

ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 Sigma polarized SR, nm, SRW calculation (left) and measured image (right). The simulation is done for ε x = 320 pm rad, β y = 1.5 m. Both figures show a 2 x 2 mm^2 area of the image plane. The fringe pattern is too weak to be visible. Optical magnification of m=-2.28 is taken into account in the SRW model Horizontal opening angle: 6 mrad Vertical opening angle: 8 mrad Exposure time: 2.9 ms First measurements (J. Breunlin)
ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 Horizontal intensity profile of imaged sigma polarized SR. Due to the 6 mrad horizontal opening angle the fringe pattern is not as pronounced as it could be, but easier to understand and to calculate. We will try to measure more accurately with larger hor. opening angle and at longer wavelengths.
ESLS Workshop Nov 2015 Next immediate steps ● Further cavity conditioning ● Vacuum conditioning ● Detailed linear optics characterization ● Beam Emittance Measurements ● Harmonic Cavity Commissioning ● Increase current
