THE COUPLING COMPENSATION AND MEASUREMENT IN THE INTERACTION REGION OF BEPCII
The detector solenoid field in the BEPCII interaction region will be compensated by six anti-solenoids, which are located nearby the interaction point. Skew quadrupoles are adopted for the global coupling compensation. The coupling compensation scheme and the method to tune and measure the x-y coupling at the interaction point will be introduced in detail. COUPLING COMPENSATION SCHEME The BESIII detector solenoid has maximum field strength of 1.0T over an effective length of ±1.8m around the interaction point (IP) where the particle motion between the horizontal and vertical planes will be coupled. The lattice functions, the vertical emmittance and the tilt angle of beam are strongly related to the coupling parameters. Therefore, without the dedicated coupling compensation it is impossible to meet higher luminosity. According to the requirements of high energy physics, BEPCII will be operated at the energy range from 1.0GeV to 2.1GeV, so the compensation system should be powerful enough to work perfectly for particles within the momentum range. For this purpose an anti-solenoid system has been designed in the superconducting magnet package to realize the local compensation of x-y coupling effects in the interaction region (IR). This system consists of three anti-solenoids AS1, AS2 and AS3 and a skew quadrupole inside the superconducting cryostat. AS1 locates between the IP and the superconducting quadrupole (SCQ) which acts as the first vertical focusing quadrupole. AS2 and the skew quadrupole overlap SCQ, while AS3 locates after SCQ. They are all dedicated to the compensation of the detector fields along the beam line for both e+ and erings which have the same beam energy. The local compensation layout of BEPCII and wiring schematic diagram are shown in Fig. 1.  The local coupling compensation layout of BEPCII and wiring schematic diagram. With this compensation scheme, the integral field ∫Bzds between the IP and SCQ is zero. The longitudinal field over SCQ is nearly zero and the integral field ∫Bzds between SCQ and the first horizontal focusing quadrupole is zero too. As well known the compensation of longitudinal field within SCQ region is a key for higher luminosity. The skew quadrupole which overlaps SCQ can make fine tuning of longitudinal field over the SCQ region instead of the mechanical rotation method. AS2 and AS3, which have their own independent trim circuits to allow fine tuning of the anti-solenoid compensation scheme, are in series with AS1. Fig. 2 shows the distribution of the axial combination magnetic field Bz along the axis of BESIII detector after compensation simulated by OPERA-2D code.  The distribution of the axial combination magnetic field along the axis of the BESIII detector. Since the anti-solenoids AS1, AS2, AS3 and the skew quadrupole are the common elements for both e+ and erings, it is necessary to add some independent variables for the coupling adjustment of one ring with the coupling of the other ring unchanged. Due to the limitation of free space, we arrange four skew quadrupoles only for each ring, which are distributed in the interaction region, injection regions and RF region respectively for the further fine tuning of coupling. The horizontal dispersion in those regions is free so that the changes of the vertical dispersion and its slope can be neglected during the coupling adjustment. The global coupling parameter and the beam tile angle at the IP of each ring, which are induced by solenoid field, the beam vertical orbit distortion inside the sextupoles and the parasitic x-y coupling due to machine errors, can be compensated by tuning the strength of the skew quadrupoles and antisolenoids. ________________________________________ *Email: yuch@mail.ihep.ac.cn

title: Transfer matrices of dipoles with bending radius variation
abstract: With the increasing demand of high brightness in light source, the uniform dipole can not meet the needs of low emittance, and thus the dipole with bending radius variation is introduced in this paper. The transfer matrix of a non-uniform dipole whose bending radius is linearly changed is chosen as an example and a very simple calculation formula of non-uniform dipole transfer matrices is given. The transfer matrices of some common profile non-uniform dipoles are also listed. The comparison of these transfer matrices and the matrices calculated with slices method verifies the numerical accuracy of this formula. This method can make the non-uniform beam dynamic problem simpler, very helpful for emittance research and lattice design with non-uniform dipoles.

title: LATTICE DESIGN FOR THE BEPCII STORAGE RING
abstract: BEPCII, the upgrading project of the BEPC, has been being designed with a luminosity of 10 33 cm -2 s -1 at the J/ψ energy. It still keeps the potential to provide beams as a synchrotron radiation (SR) facility. The storage rings for collision contain a positron and an electron ring and the ring for dedicated SR uses the outer parts of the two rings. To fit all the conditions either on beam or on space limit, lattices are carefully designed for both high energy physics and SR experiments with sufficient dynamic apertures and high efficiencies for injection. The features of the lattices are also discussed in the paper. 1 DESIGN REQUIREMENTS BEPCII is an upgrade project of the Beijing ElectronPositron Collider (BEPC), in which a new inner ring will be installed inside the old one. It will provide colliding beams with the center-of-mass energy from 1.0GeV×2 to 2.0GeV×2 and also the dedicated synchrotron radiation beam with 2.5 GeV. For the colliding beams the luminosity is optimized at 1.89 GeV with 1×10 33 cm -2 s -1 . For the dedicated synchrotron radiation beam, the current is 250 mA with an emittance as low as possible. There have been several beam-lines in the BEPC for the synchrotron radiation experiments, so the current bending magnets and insertion devices in the southern region have to be fixed at their present positions. In order to increase the average luminosity, the “topoff” injection scheme up to 1.89 GeV is adopted. This requires that the injection and collision optics must be the same. The main parameters are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

title: DESIGN OF BEAM TRANSPORT LINE FROM RCS TO TARGET FOR CSNS
abstract: China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) uses the high energy proton beam to strike the Tungsten target to generate neutrons through spallation reaction. The proton beam is extracted from the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), whose beam power reaches 100 kW. For the sake of target lifetime, beam distribution at the target surface is required as uniform as possible. Nonlinear beam density redistribution method with two octupole magnets has been studied. Also some simulation and theoretical calculation have been done. According to the simulation result, the beam density at the target is optimized and the beam loss is under control.

title: A study of recoil protons in ultra-relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions
abstract: An investigation of the energy dependence of grey prong producing particles in 16 O+ emulsion interactions at energies from 2.1 to 200 A GeV is reported. Many of the features of these particles, known from hadron-induced interactions, are shown to be of importance also in heavy-ion interactions, i.e. multiplicity and angular distributions as well as the impact parameter dependence are energy independent. Furthermore the angular distribution seems to be independent of the projectile and target masses as well as centrality of the interactions. Both the Fritiof and Ranft models fail to reproduce this general angular shape.

title: Measurement of the absolute branching ratios for semileptonic K+- decays with the KLOE detector.
abstract: Using a sample of over 600 million → K+K− decays collected at the DAΦNE e+e− collider, we have measured with the KLOE detector the absolute branching ratios for the charged kaon semileptonic decays, K± → π0e±ν(γ) and K± → π0μ±ν(γ). The results, BR(Ke3) = 0.04965±0.00038stat±0.00037syst and BR(Kμ3) = 0.03233±0.00029stat±0.00026syst, are inclusive of radiation. Accounting for correlations, we derive the ratio Γ(Kμ3)/Γ(Ke3) = 0.6511±0.0064. Using the semileptonic form factors measured in the same experiment, we obtain |Vus f+(0)| = 0.2141 ±0.0013$.

title: Measurement of the DAΦNE luminosity with the KLOE detector using large angle Bhabha scattering
abstract: We describe the method of measuring the integrated luminosity of the e+e- collider DAΦNE, the Frascati φ-factory. The measurement is done with the KLOE detector selecting large angle Bhabha scattering events and normalizing them to the effective cross section. The e+e-→e+e-(γ) cross section is calculated using different event generators which account for the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ radiative initial and final state corrections, and the φ resonance contribution. The accuracy of the measurement is 0.6%, where 0.3% comes from systematic errors related to the event counting and 0.5% from theoretical evaluations of the cross section.

title: Measurement of the slope parameter $\alpha$ for the $\eta\to 3\pi^0$ decay at KLOE
abstract: We report a preliminary measurement of the slope parameter $\alpha$ for the $\eta\to 3\piz$ decay carried out with KLOE at DA$\Phi$NE; where $\alpha$ is the parameter describing the energy dependence of the square of the matrix element for this decay. By fitting the event density in the Dalitz plot with a collected statistic of 420 pb$^{-1}$ we determine $\alpha = -0.027 \pm 0.004 (stat) ^{+0.004}_{-0.006} (syst)$. This result is consistent with current chiral perturbation theory calculations within the unitary approach.
