Description
DELTA, a 1.5-GeV electron storage ring facility operated by TU Dortmund University in Germany, celebrated its 30th anniversary in fall 2024. During its time in operation, the facility has been continuously developed to provide synchrotron radiation (SR) users with the most reliable and attractive radiation source possible. This includes continuous improvements of electron beam stability and lifetime, the installation of a new 7-T superconducting wiggler magnet with a specially adapted SR outlet chamber, as well as the integration of a second solid-state amplifier-driven radiofrequency system. In recent years, there have also been many exciting developments in the field of accelerator physics. These include the construction of a facility for generating ultrashort and coherent SR pulses, studies involving laser-induced terahertz radiation, and experiments conducted in single-electron mode that complemented ongoing research activities. Furthermore, projects focusing on intelligent system control using machine learning methods were successfully implemented. This report summarizes the most significant developments over the past years.
