Feedforward compensation of the insertion devices effects in the SSRF storage ring

The lattice of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) storage ring was upgraded in the Phase-II beamline project, and thus far, 18 insertion devices (IDs) have been installed. The IDs cause closed-orbit distortions, tune drift, and coupling distortions in the SSRF storage ring, all of which are significant issues that require solutions. In this study, an ID orbit feedforward compensation system based on a response matrix using corrector coils was developed, and it was applied to all commissioned IDs in the SSRF storage ring. After correction, the maximum ID-induced horizontal and vertical orbit distortions were less than 5.0 and 3.5 mu m, respectively. Some interesting phenomena observed during the measurement process were explained. Additionally, optical and coupling feedforward systems were developed using quadrupole and skew quadrupole magnets installed on the front and back of elliptically polarizing undulators (EPUs). Moreover, over nearly four months of operation, the developed strategy delivered a satisfactory performance in the SSRF storage ring.

Automated summary

In this study, an ID orbit feedforward compensation system based on a response matrix using corrector coils was developed, and it was successfully applied to all commissioned IDs in the SSRF storage ring, achieving effective orbit distortion compensation. Optical and coupling feedforward systems were also developed, further optimizing the system performance through the installation of quadrupole and skew quadrupole magnets.
