SHADOW4: the popular ray tracing revived for evolving synchrotron sources in fourth-generation storage rings

We present SHADOW4, a new version of the popular ray tracing code. The SHADOW kernel has been completely rewritten in Python applying modern concepts of software engineering. A new user interface is available in the OASYS ecosystem. The new tool has been designed and implemented preparing the future needs both in computing (cloud computing, AI integration) and in the transit to fourth generation sources and beyond.

Averaged invariants in storage rings with synchrotron motion

In an ideal accelerator, the single-particle dynamics can be decoupled into transverse motion—the betatron oscillations— and longitudinal motion—the synchrotron oscillations. Chromatic and dispersive effects introduce a coupling between these dynamics, the so-called synchro-betatron coupling. We present an analysis of the fully coupled dynamics over a single synchrotron oscillation that leads to an averaged invariant with synchro-betatron coupling in a generic lattice. Here, we apply this analysis to two problems: first, a toy lattice where the computations are analytically tractable, then a design for a rapid cycling synchrotron built using the integrable optics described by Danilov and Nagaitsev, showing that although there is fairly complex behavior over the course of a synchrotron oscillation, the Danilov-Nagaitsev invariants are nevertheless periodic with the synchrotron motion.

Synchronous detection of longitudinal and transverse bunch signals at a storage ring

To understand and control dynamics in the longitudinal phase space, time-resolved measurements of different bunch parameters are required. For a reconstruction of this phase space, the detector systems have to be synchronized. This reconstruction can be used for example for studies of the microbunching instability which occurs if the interaction of the bunch with its own radiation leads to the formation of substructures on the longitudinal bunch profile. These substructures can grow rapidly—leading to a sawtooth-like behavior of the bunch. At KARA, we use a fast-gated intensified camera for energy spread studies, Schottky diodes for coherent synchrotron radiation studies as well as electro-optical spectral decoding for longitudinal bunch profile measurements. For a synchronization, a synchronization scheme is used which compensates for hardware delays. Here in this paper, the different experimental setups and their synchronization are discussed and first results of synchronous measurements presented.
