Pulsed magnets were characterized for use for injection in the top-up mode for Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). Two kicker magnets in vacuum were implemented to inject and to extract electron beams for the booster ring. Five septum and four kicker magnets of in-air type were provided for injection into a 3-GeV storage ring. All pulsed magnets are of home design, manufactured and assembled in National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center. To verify the quality of a magnetic field and its distribution, measurement systems including long-coil and search-coil systems were installed. The pulsed power supply was improved to gain exact stability. We report that through our shielding design, the maximum leakage field of the septum along the beam trajectory is less than 0.02% of the main field. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

A 3-pole gradient-damping wiggler (GDW) was developed for the ALPHA storage ring at Indiana University. The GDW is effective in modifying the momentum-compaction factor and the damping partition number in the ALPHA storage ring. The yokes of GDW are made by lamination of silicon steel sheets (50CS1300) with a thickness 0.5 mm. Glue (3M 2216) is used to paste the lamination sheets together to create a block using a punch fixture. The C-shape structure and the pole profile of the damping wigglers are cut from the silicon-steel blocks with the wire-cutting machine. One middle pole and two outer poles are assembled on the same girder as the set of GDW. The oblique of pole profile of middle and outer poles is different to obtain the same polarity of gradient field. The magnet gaps of the middle and outer poles are 40 and 35.87 mm; respectively to obtain the same dipole field strength. The field strengths of dipole and gradient-field of the middle (outer) pole are 0.67 T (-0.67 T) and 1.273 T/m (1.273 T/m), by keeping the integral ratio of (dB/dx)/B=1.9\ m^-1 constant. The three combined functions of the dipole magnet can be charged in 1 Hz with a single power supply. There are trim coils on the three poles to adjust the first and second integral fields to zero. The good field region of the middle and outer poles along the transverse x-axis (\DeltaB/B=0.1\%) are \pm50 and \pm40 mm respectively. After fabrication of one set GDW magnet, a Hall probe measurement system was used to measure the magnetic field to verify the design and construction performance of the magnet.
