Description

The Karlsruhe Research Accelerator (KARA), a synchrotron light source and test facility, at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), offers excellent conditions for testing different Beam-Based Alignment (BBA) approaches. Classical BBA approaches estimate the offset between the magnet and the closest BPM for one magnet at a time, and the required time for the BBA scales linearly with the number of magnets. Therefore, this approach is unsuitable for large storage rings like the Future electron-positron Circular Collider (FCC-ee). The time required is reduced using parallel BBA, where the magnet offset for several magnets is determined simultaneously. In this contribution, we compare new methods of parallel and individual BBA for quadrupoles at KARA. The measurement results are complemented with simulations using Xsuite and optics measurements.
