摘要: The Dynamics beamline (D-Line), which combines synchrotron radiation infrared spectroscopy (SR-IR) and energy-dispersive X-ray absorption spectroscopy (ED-XAS), is the first beamline in the world to realize concurrent ED-XAS and SR-IR measurements at the same sample position on a millisecond time-resolved scale. This combined technique is effective for investigating rapid structural changes in atoms, electrons, and molecules in complicated disorder systems, such as those used in physics, chemistry, materials science, and extreme conditions. Moreover, ED-XAS and SR-IR can be used independently in the two branches of the D-Line. The ED-XAS branch is the first ED-XAS beamline in China, which uses a tapered undulator light source and can achieve approximately 2.5 × 1012 photons/s•300 eV BW@7.2 keV at the sample position. An exchangeable polychromator operating in the Bragg-reflection or Laue-transmission configuration is used in different energy ranges to satisfy the requirements for beam size and energy resolution. The focused beam size is approximately 3.5 μm (H) × 21.5 μm (V), and the X-ray energy range is 5–25 keV. Using one- and two-dimensional position-sensitive detectors with frame rates of up to 400 kHz enables time resolutions of tens of microseconds to be realized. Several distinctive techniques, such as the concurrent measurement of in-situ ED-XAS and infrared spectroscopy, time-resolved ED-XAS, high-pressure ED-XAS, XMCD, and pump–probe ED-XAS, can be applied to achieve different scientific goals.

摘要: Various electromagnetic signals are excited by the beam in the acceleration and beam-diagnostic elements of a particle accelerator. It is important to obtain time-domain waveforms of these signals with high temporal resolution for research, such as the study of beam-cavity interactions and bunch-by-bunch parameter measure#2;ments. Therefore, a signal reconstruction algorithm with ultrahigh spatiotemporal resolution and bunch phase compensation based on equivalent sampling is proposed in this paper. Compared with traditional equivalent sampling, the use of phase compensation and setting the bunch signal zero-crossing point as the time reference can construct a more accurate reconstructed signal. The basic principles of the method, simulation, and experi#2;mental comparison are also introduced. Based on the beam test platform of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) and the method of experimental verification, the factors that affect the reconstructed signal qual#2;ity are analyzed and discussed, including the depth of the sampled data, quantization noise of analog-to-digital converter (ADC), beam transverse oscillation, and longitudinal oscillation. The results of the beam experiments show that under the user operation conditions of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), a beam excitation signal with an amplitude uncertainty of 2% can be reconstructed.

摘要: The Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source(SLEGS) has delivered a quasi-monochromatic, continuously energy-tunable gamma-ray beam. Based on the photon activation analysis(PAA) method, SLEGS has built and developed a photon activation analysis platform, including online activation and offline low-background HPGe detector measurement systems, as an alternative to direct measurement methods and a cross-tests at low throughput. Due to the short half-lives spanning from minutes to days and characteristics such as ease of fabrication, cost-effectiveness, and stability, gold (197Au) and zinc (64Zn) emerge as favorable activation targets in the gamma-ray beam flux monitor. Notably, their utility shows a multitude of advantages in monitoring the gamma-ray beam flux typically 105 photons/s with the energy of 13.16 to 19.08 MeV under the condition of the 3 mm coarse collimator. Especially in high-flux $\gamma$-ray beam experiments can be well applied.

摘要: Traditional particle identification methods are time consuming, experience-dependent, and poor repeatability challenges in heavy-ion collisions at low and intermediate energies. Researchers urgently need solutions to the dilemma of traditional particle identification methods. This study explores the possibility of applying intelligent learning algorithms to the particle identification of heavy-ion collisions at low and intermediate energies. Multiple intelligence algorithms, including XgBoost and TabNet, were selected to test datasets from the neutron ion multi-detector for reaction-oriented dynamics (NIMRODISiS) and Geant4 simulation. Machine learning algorithms based on tree structures and deep learning algorithms e.g. TabNet show excellent performance and generalization ability. Adding additional data features besides energy deposition can improve the algorithm's identification ability when the data distribution is nonuniform. Intelligent learning algorithms can be applied to solve the particle identification problem in heavy-ion collisions at low and intermediate energies.

摘要: The infrared microspectroscopy beamline (BL06B) is a phase II beamline project at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF). The construction and optical alignment of BL06B were completed by the end of 2020. By 2021, it became accessible to users. The synchrotron radiation infrared (SRIR) source included edge radiation (ER) and bending-magnet radiation (BMR). The extracted angles in the horizontal and vertical directions were 40 and 20 mrad, respectively. The photon flux, spectral resolution, and focused spot size were measured at the BL06B end station, and the experimental results were consistent with theoretical calculations. SRIR light has a small divergence angle, high brightness, and a wide wavelength range. As a source of IR microscopy, it can easily focus on a diffraction-limited spatial resolution with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The BL06B end station can be applied in a wide range of research fields, including materials, chemistry, biology, geophysics, and pharmacology.

摘要: A diffraction-limited storage ring with a multi-bend achromat lattice suffers from a small dynamic aperture for conventional off-axis injection. Thus, a longitudinal on-axis injection scheme based on a new type of crab cavity is proposed in this paper. Particle tracking simulations were performed to study the disturbance of the stored beam and the motion of the injected beam during the injection process. The possibility of multi-bunch injections was discussed. In addition, the effect of the long-range wake field induced by the stored beam was analyzed. A C-band standing-wave crab cavity was designed and produced as requested, and its field distribution was measured. The corresponding results are consistent with the simulation results.

摘要: As an important measure of improving the efficiency and usability of X-ray free electron laser facilities, parallel operation of multiple undulator lines realized by a beam switchyard has become a standard configuration in the recent built XFEL facilities. SXFEL-UF, the first soft X-ray free electron laser user facility in China, has finished construction and commissioning recently. The electron beams from the linac are separated and delivered alternately to the two parallel undulator beam lines through a beam switchyard. A stable and fast kicker magnet is used to achieve bunch-by-bunch separation. Optics measures are applied to mitigate the impact of various collective effects, such as coherent synchrotron radiation and micro-bunching instability, on the beam quality after passing through the deflection line of the beam switchyard. In this study, the comprehensive physical design of the beam switchyard is described and the latest results of its commissioning process are presented.
