Abstract

Results of the effort to counter the effect due to the finite inductance of the magnet and the eddy current in the 1/2-in-thick aluminum storage ring vacuum chamber are presented. The amplitude attenuation and the phase shift of the correction magnet field inside the APS storage ring vacuum chamber were measured. A circuit to compensate for this effect was then inserted between the signal source and the magnet power supply. The amplitude was restored with an error of less than 20% of the source signal amplitude and the phase shift was reduced from 80 degrees to 12 degrees at 10 Hz. Incorporation of this circuit in the closed-loop feedback scheme and the resulting beneficial effect in the closed-orbit stabilization is discussed.<>
