Emittance manipulation by first- and second-order lattice control

• The lattice of the MAX-I electron storage ring has been investigated and tuned towards small momentum compaction values. By measurements of the synchrotron frequency, bunch length, horizontal beam size and beam movement, the beam has been found to behave in reasonable agreement with the predictions of the lattice model up to second order in energy deviation. Both longitudinal and horizontal emittance could be varied within a relatively large range with lattice changes and/or controlled beam energy changes.
