Popis: |
AmPS has been built to enhance substantially the main specifications of the 1% duty factor 550 MeV electron accelerator facility MEA. The maximum energy will be raised to 0.9 GeV while the duty factor increases from 1% to approximately 100%. To this purpose the ring AmPS was added to the facility. Simultaneously the linac was upgraded both in current and energy. Two modes of operation for the ring are implemented: a Pulse Stretcher mode with 3 turn injection creating an external beam, and a Storage Mode with multi turn injection for internal target physics. The commissioning of the ring started in April 1992. Within two months 10% duty factor beams could be delivered for electron scattering experiments. Meanwhile the performance of the machine has been improved dramatically. The actual performance of the ring is presented and is compared with the initial design goals. > |
