Description
The compact storage ring project for accelerator research and technology (cSTART) is realized at the Institute for Beam Physics and Technology (IBPT) of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Flexible lattice of a ring benefits variety of operation modes. Different physical experiments are planned at cSTART. In particular, deep variation of momentum compaction factor with simultaneous control of high order terms of alpha would demonstrate the capture and storage of ultra-short bunches of electrons in a circular accelerator. Computer studies of linear and non-linear beam dynamics were performed with an objective to estimate arrangement and performance of dedicated three pole chicane magnets to provide quasi-isochronous conditions for electrons. Additional families of so called “longitudinal” sextupoles and octupoles were added in a ring model to control slope and curvature of momentum compaction factor as function of energy offset of particles in a bunch.
