ACHIP Meeting (20 Jan 2017)
Present: Simona Bettoni; Marco Calvi; Marian Dreher; Eugenio Ferrari; Franziska Frei; Rasmus Ischebeck; Eduard Prat Costa

• Status of SATSY chamber:
  • design is in good shape, internal review meeting was ok, meeting with collaboration scheduled in the afternoon (went well)
  • motor testing for the quadrupole magnets has started (D. Zehnder)
  • simulations on quadrupole field errors (EP): tollerance below 1% is accettable and can be corrected by changing the input matching. 
  • MC: magnetic material under procurement. Discussion on the brazing of the support with the magnets themself. Procurement will take 2 months.
  • Alingment is expected to be in the 30-40 um range, integrated gradient measured with 1 permil precision.
  • simulations on quadrupole alignment (EF): beam under control also with only one quadrupole inserted in the chamber at a time. It's possible to scan the offset to find the center
• Collaboration meeting coming next week
• Status of SATSI chamber:
  • we will have a summer student
  • we have problems with controls in interfacing the chamber to the MPS of SwissFEL
  • MC suggests Beckhoff as motion control solution, already in use for the undulators. A dedicated meeting will be scheduled.
