Turn-by-turn Measurements of the Energy Spread at Negative Momentum Compaction Factor at KARA — •Christian Goffing¹, Erik Bründermann¹, Michele Caselle¹, Stefan Funkner¹, Gudrun Niehues¹, Marvin-Dennis Noll¹, Meghana Patil¹, Patrick Schreiber¹, Johannes Steinmann¹, Anke-Susanne Müller¹, Giovanni Paternoster², Maurizio Boscardin², and Matteo Centis Vignali² — ¹KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany — ²FBK, Trento, Italy

The Karlsruhe Research Accelerator, the storage ring KARA at KIT, allows short electron bunch operation with positive as well as negative momentum compaction factor. For both cases, the beam dynamics are studied. Using the KALYPSO (KArlsruhe Linear arraY detector for MHz rePetition rate SpectrOscopy) linear array, based on TI-LGAD, the horizontal intensity distribution of the emitted visible part of the synchrotron radiation is measured at a 5-degree port of a bending magnet on a turn-by-turn time scale. Because the measurement is located at a dispersive section, the dynamics of the energy spread can be studied by measuring the horizontal bunch profile. The acquisition rate at MHz-frequencies and the low-charge sensitivity of the line camera allow the investigation of the microbunching instability. This contribution presents the results of the bunch profile measurements performed at positive and negative momentum compaction factor.
