  • Abstract
    A status report on the Dortmund Electron Test Accelerator (DELTA) is presented. This low-emittance storage ring is dedicated to FEL (free-electron-laser) and accelerator-physics R&D. Preacceleration will be performed with a 100-MeV linac. Lattice designs of the 1.5-GeV booster (FODO structure) and storage ring (triplet structure) have been completed, and prototypes of magnets and vacuum vessels, identical for both cyclic machines, are to be delivered end of 1991. Commissioning of the machines is planned for end of 1993. An overall description of the vacuum system is given with the design goal of achieving beam lifetimes of >10 h at high currents.<>
