Corolla energy storage device ring

How does a storage ring work?

Storage ring/bending magnets After leaving DESY II, the electron bunches then enter the storage ring PETRA III (before the former storage ring DORIS III), where all the actual research happens. To allow the electrons to circle the ring for many hours, they travel in a metal tube in which an ultra-high vacuum is maintained, the vacuum chamber.

What is a magnetic storage ring?

Magnetic storage rings operates not only in high energy range but also at low energies. In particular, the LEAR ring at CERN was the first machine to store, cool and decelerate antiprotons down to only 5 MeV . 4He− and 12C70 − ions have been stored at energies of 5 and 25 keV respectively in the ASTRID magnetic ring .

What is a third-generation storage ring?

From the early 90s, third-generation storage rings have been put into operation, producing highly brilliant radiation and specially optimized for the use of insertion devices. The ESRF was the first of the third-generation hard x-ray sources to operate.

What is the vertical emittance of a storage ring?

In practice, the vertical emittance is dominated by magnet alignment errors. Storage rings typically operate with a vertical emittance that is of order 1% of the horizontal emittance, but many can achieve emittance ratios somewhat smaller than this. ∗T. Raubenheimer, SLAC Report 387, p.19 (1991).
