A Fast Gated Intensified Camera Setup for Transversal Beam Diagnostics at the ANKA Storage Ring — •Paul Schütze1, Edmund Hertle2, Nicole Hiller2, Benjamin Kehrer1, Anke-Susanne Müller1,2,3, and Patrik Schönfeldt2 — 1LAS, KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany — 2IPS, KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany — 3ANKA, KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany
ANKA, the synchrotron light source at KIT, can be operated in different modes, including the low-alpha operation with bunch lengths compressed to a few picoseconds. In this mode coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) is emitted leading to beam instabilities. For gaining further insight into those processes, a setup based on a fast gated intensified camera was installed recently at the visible light diagnostics beamline of the ANKA storage ring. The experimental layout consists of an optical setup, which magnifies the image of the beam in the horizontal and demagnifies it in the vertical plane to obtain a projection of the horizontal beam shape, the camera itself and a fast scanning galvanometric mirror that sweeps the image across the sensor. This allows the tracking of the horizontal bunch size and position over many turns. Here we present the setup, simulations and first tests of the fast gated intensified camera.
