Suppressing the X–Y coupling effect in compact electron storage rings

Abstract

The x–y coupling effect, especially the tilt of the beam profiles, in the Super-ALIS compact electron storage ring has been effectively eliminated. The main feature of this method is the suppression of the most harmful Fourier components of the skew-quadrupole perturbation by using just one thin skew-quadrupole magnet. Therefore, the method should be simple and effective for coupling suppression in compact storage rings that have little space for correction instruments.
