Synchrotron Radiation Interferometer Calibration Check by Use of A Size Control Bump in KEKB

Accelerator Physics 2007-07-05 v1

Abstract

In KEKB, synchrotron radiation interferometers (SRMs) are used for measuring the transverse beam sizes. There is also a tool for enlarging the vertical beam size intentionally by making an asymmetric bump, called an ``iSize'' bump, at one of the strongest non-interleaved sextupole magnets in each KEKB ring. The calibrations of the SRMs were checked by comparing the measured vertical beam sizes with those calculated using the computer code ``SAD''. The obtained correction factors are 1.000±\pm0.045 for HER and 0.971±\pm0.060 for LER, which are consistent with the calibration factors of SRMs\cite{SRMcalib} within errors. Using the obtained calibration factor, x-y coupling of each ring was calculated .
