4 INTRODUCTION
4.1 Project Overview
ALS-U is an upgrade project to the LBNL Advanced Light Source (ALS). The ALS is a 1.9 GeV
storage ring operating at 500 mA of beam current. It is optimized to produce intense beams of
soft x-rays, which offer spectroscopic contrast, nanometer-scale resolution, and broad temporal
sensitivity. The ALS facility includes an accelerator complex and photon delivery system that is
capable of providing the foundations for an upgrade that will achieve world-leading soft x-ray
coherent flux. The existing ALS provides a ready-made foundation, including conventional
facilities and also includes extensive beamlines (up to 40 simultaneously operating beamlines)
and instrumentation, an experimental hall, computing resources, ancillary laboratories, offices,
and related infrastructure that will be heavily utilized in an upgrade scenario.
The ALS will be upgraded with a multibend achromat (MBA) lattice design that will provide a soft
x-ray source that is orders of magnitudes brighter — an up to 100-1000 times increase in
brightness and will provide a significantly higher fraction of coherent light in the soft x-ray region
than is currently available at ALS.
Any resulting Subcontract will be between the University and the party identified as the
Subcontractor and will be issued under Prime Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 between the
University and the United States Government (hereinafter “U.S. Government”), represented by
the Department of Energy (hereinafter “DOE”) for the management and operation of LBNL and
the performance of research and related work.
4.2 Description of Items
Beam Position Monitor (BPM) electronics assemblies provide signal conditioning, timing
distribution, and processing necessary to measure the transverse position of the particle beam.
The assemblies consist of multiple printed circuit board (PCB) sub-assemblies grouped into
major functional assemblies, including the Timing + Balun assembly, Analog Front End (AFE)
assemblies, and Chassis-level electronics.
The required assemblies for this work package are summarized in the table below, which
identifies the BPM major assembly, sub-assembly description, total required quantity, and the
associated drawing number that defines fabrication and build requirements.
