Description

In preparation for the upcoming upgrade of the MAX IV Laboratory 3 GeV storage ring, tighter alignment tolerances are required for the magnet-cells to achieve the lower target beam emittance. We evaluate alignment strategies that ensure both local cell-to-cell smoothness and global alignment relative to the control network. Three candidate strategies are designed and evaluated using tailored survey measurements conducted on a single achromat. In addition to the survey results for each strategy, practical considerations such as achromat symmetry and alignment time efficiency are taken into account to determine the optimal strategy to meet the upgrade specifications.
