First Synchrotron Injection Attempt into The SuperKEKB High Energy Ring

A synchrotron injection scheme for the SuperKEKB electron high-energy ring (HER) was implemented and experimentally evaluated as the first attempt with a top-up injection during beam collisions. The lattice at the HER injection point was configured to provide a large horizontal dispersion of -1.6 m, and the injection beam energy was accordingly set to +0.6% above the ring energy. Since the beam extraction system is located near the injection point, the optics design was constrained to ensure compatibility with its requirements. A systematic tuning procedure of the injection parameters has been established with turn-by-turn BPMs(TbT-BPMs) in the ring, by which the betatron amplitude of the injected beam was successfully removed. Using optimized ring optics, synchrotron injection into the HER was successfully demonstrated, followed by the establishment of stable collisions and the production of luminosity.

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

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$\pm$0.045 for HER and 0.971$\pm$0.060 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 .

Compensation of the Crossing Angle with Crab Cavities at KEKB

Crab cavities have been installed in the KEKB B--Factory rings to compensate the crossing angle at the collision point and thus increase luminosity. The beam operation with crab crossing has been done since February 2007. This is the first experience with such cavities in colliders or storage rings. The crab cavities have been working without serious issues. While higher specific luminosity than the geometrical gain has been achieved, further study is necessary and under way to reach the prediction of simulation.
