Present Feedback system
• Presently we keep the beams in collision by dithering the HEB while monitoring the luminosity signal and then move the HEB to the LEB in order to maximize the luminosity signal.
• We use 8 correctors in the HEB (4 for X and 4 for Y) to move the HEB beam back and forth in the X, Y and Y angle dimensions. The feedback moves the beam left then right, then calculates the peak of the luminosity with a parabolic fit and then moves the beam to the newly calculated peak.
• The process is repeated for the Y dimension and then for the Y angle. There is at least a 5/8 sec settle time for the corrector magnets for each beam move. This means the present system speed is dominated by the corrector magnet settle time. There are 5 magnet moves for each dimension and three dimensions so it takes at least 8 sec to complete a full go-around of the feedback.
• Several times over the last few years we have thought of trying to make a faster luminosity feedback system, but could not come up with a location for some air coils until we finally thought of using locations near the HER fast separator magnets. These magnets need a thin stainless steel beam pipe which is exactly what the new system needs.

New Luminosity Feedback
• The new idea is to use air coils that can be driven at frequencies of around 100 Hz.
• We simultaneously excite the coils at 3 different frequencies – one for each dimension and detect the 3 signals with separate lock-in amplifiers.
• The lock-ins deliver an amplitude and sign for each dimension. The sign indicates which direction to move.
• The feedback algorithm then uses this information to decide how much to step in each dimension.
• The 3 steps are then added together and the magnets are moved in all 3 dimensions at once.
• We should immediately gain a factor of about 8 in speed and hope to improve that even more by using an improved algorithm that decides how much to move the beam .

Luminosity signal
• We have a very high rate luminosity signal that we have not been fully utilizing
• Clive Field says that at luminosities of near 1e34 nearly every crossing produces a hit in his detector. This corresponds to a signal rate of well over 100 MHz.
• Our present minimum luminosity signal is 1e30 which should still have a signal rate of something like 10 kHz
• The background level for the luminosity signal is less than 1e29 at low to moderate beam currents
• Work is going on to provide a couple of signals. The trick is to get a fast enough response time without too much noise.

Coil Design and Hardware• The design and construction of the coils include:
– Inductance calculations and measurements– Field penetration and phase shift measurements– Field uniformity calculations– Power handling capacity – air cooled
• The kick angles needed for the beam movements were calculated from the MAD model of the HER. This gives us initial coefficients to make closed bumps around the IP.
• There are two different beam pipes for the coils so calculations and measurements had to be made for both locations.
• There are two very good presentations by Steve Gierman and Alan Fisher on more details at these links:

More Hardware• We have in hand the Lock-ins
• We have found and refurbished 8 power amplifiers (KEPCOs)
• The circuit board with the frequency additions and with the driver circuits for the power amplifiers has been designed, sent out for fabrication, and has just come back from the vendor last week. The mother board and the 8 daughter boards are being stuffed in preparation for checkout.

Software
• We have a team of people from the software group helping to put together a software package for the fast dither
• We will keep the present system intact and build another package for the new hardware. The present system then becomes a backup.
• The present SLAC fast feedback software package can readily accommodate the new fast dither feedback design
• We plan to use a “Newton search” algorithm to decide how far to move. We have a simulator in software to study the algorithm.
• We are keeping an up-to-date flow chart to make sure everyone understands how the feedback works.

Summary
• We are putting together a new fast dither luminosity feedback system
• The new system should be about 10 times faster than the present system
• This shows great promise for a more accurate and quicker luminosity tune-up of the accelerator.
• The faster feedback should also improve machine stability by getting the beams quickly back into collision when something in the ring shifts the beam orbit(s)
