Session 10
For users to take advantage of the low emittance and high coherence photon beams produced at synchrotron light sources, sub-micron source-point stability is desired over timescales from milliseconds to hours. However, it is insufficient to only monitor the source electron beam; the X-ray beam itself must be monitored and, where required, included in feedback loops to meet the stringent...
A method to simulate beam parameters observed at a beamline sample point in the presence of motion of optical components has been developed at Diamond Light Source. Stationary ray-tracing simulations are used to model the impact on the beam stability caused by dynamic motion of optical elements. Ray-tracing simulations using SHADOW3 in OASYS, completed over multiple iterations and stitched...
