Description
Due to the high energy density of the Diamond-II low-emittance electron beam, the risk of damage to storage ring components is considered high. A dedicated beam abort system is one way to safely dump the beam and protect the machine from damage. In this paper, we present the design of a beam abort system for the Diamond-II storage ring. The requirements of the key components will be described, including the kickers, beam dump and controller. Simulations of the effects of beam loss on the beam dump surface and collimator blades will be shown.
