A passive 3^{rd} harmonic RF system, being necessary for the Hefei Advanced Light Facility (HALF) storage ring under design, will be employed to lengthen the bunches for suppressing the intrabeam scattering and improving the beam lifetime. However, the transient beam loading due to the fundamental mode may significantly reduce the bunch lengthening. Since the scale of transient effects is proportional to R/Q, the effects of R/Q on bunch lengthening, in uniform fill pattern with the near-optimum condition fulfilled, are analyzed by multibunches multiparticles tracking simulation. It indicates that the passive superconducting harmonic cavity with a lower R/Q is preferred by HALF., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil

Hefei Advanced Light Facility (HALF) is the fourth generation diffraction-limited storage ring light source project in China. The lattice of the storage ring consists of six different dipoles with longitudinal gradients. The longitudinal-gradient dipoles (LGBs) are permanent magnets. This paper presents the designed construction of LGBs and the magnetic field results using OPERA3D. By optimizing the shape of the polar surface, the magnetic field uniformity is optimized to about 5×10⁻⁴. With some movable adjusting block, the magnetic field can be controlled accurately. The temperature stability of the magnet is better than 0.0074 T*mm/°C by setting temperature compensating shunt., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil

Multi-bend achromat lattices with unit cells have been used in diffraction-limited storage ring designs. The longitudinal gradient bend can reduce the horizontal emittance below the theoretical minimum of a given magnet structure, and generally the horizontal emittance reduces with the peak field grows. Therefore superconducting longitudinal gradient bend (SLGB) can produce higher peak field value and quasi-hyperbolic field profile to minimize emittance at location of radiation and generate better hard X-rays. NbTi conductor, rather than Nb₃Sn conductor, is selected to keep the design and manufacture of SLGB magnet as simple as possible. In this paper, how the field profiles of race-track type coil and solenoid coil change with their geometric parameters is studied, and multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to optimize SLGB magnet structure considering Hefei Advanced Light Facility lattice design demand and NbTi critical current., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil

To reach the real diffraction-limited emittance, it is generally required to increase the number of bends in multi-bend achromat (MBA) lattices that are used in the designs of fourth-generation synchrotron light sources. For an MBA lattice with distributed chromatic correction, more bends mean much tighter space and much stronger magnets. Inspired by the hybrid MBA lattice concept, in this paper we propose a new lattice concept called complex unit lattice cell, which can save space and reduce magnet strengths. A 17BA lattice based on the complex unit cell concept is designed for a 3 GeV synchrotron light source with a circumference of 537.6 m, which reaches a natural emittance of about 21 pm·rad. Comparison is also made between this 17BA lattice and the 17BA lattice with distributed chromatic correction to demonstrate the merit of the complex unit cell concept., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil

In this paper, we improve a semi-analytical method, which can be not only used for bunch lengthening under equilibrium conditions, but also applied to the prediction of a periodic transient beam loading effect. This periodic transient is induced by the presence of the passive harmonic cavity and might be encountered under specific conditions for a ultra-low emittance storage ring with a higher beam current., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil
