Description

The design of 4th generation synchrotron light sources employs such strong quadrupolar and sextupolar magnets, that the motion of electrons in the storage ring is extremely sensitive to the misalignment and the field imperfection of magnets. As a result, it has become common practice to simulate the steps followed during the commissioning of a light source to compare the sensitivity to different types of lattice errors from a beam dynamics point of view and inform the design of the light source. Although there is significant overlap in the algorithms used to commission and to simulate the commissioning of a light source, they typically consist of separate implementations. This work describes the latest developments in the pySC software for commissioning simulations to allow the usage of its tools in a real control system environment for storage rings. Finally, it reports on tests done at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility Extremely Brilliant Source (ESRF-EBS) to apply said tools to tune the storage ring.
