MAX-lab is a national facility funded by the Swedish Research Council (VR 50 MSEK) and Lund University (20 MSEK). Two Divisions belonging to the Natural Science Faculty: Accelerator Physics and Instrumentation for Synchrotron Radiation Research, are placed at MAX-lab.
MAX-lab is foremost a synchrotron radiation facility.

To MAX I
Glasgow September 2008 BS 5
For nuclear physics, the linacs operate at 10 Hz giving an electron pulse some 100-200 ns wide. The electron beam is injected into the stretcher ring MAX I. The electron beam is extracted slowly during the 100 ms interval between pulses from the injector. The stored electrons are ”shaked” and move towards the thin extraction septum.The average beam current in the ring is about 20 mA, resulting in an extracted current of 20 nA (106 ).
Cavity to compensate synchrotron light losses in the dipole magnets

The synchrotron light from a bending magnet observed with a CCD camera. The division is 20 ms. The electrons in the ring are almost entirely extracted between injections.
The extracted beam seen by a nuclear detector in the experimental area. Shown is a TDC spectrum started by the linac trigger and stopped by an event in the detector (in this case a NaI(Tl)). The spectrum was obtained during a tagging efficiency measurement with the NaI detector as trigger. Part of the events are accidentals from cosmic radiation.

The collimator assembly consists of a heavymet main collimator, 108.5 mm long, with an entrance opening of 12 mm and an exit opening of 13 mm. The outer diameter of the main collimator is 80 mm. With the collimator inset used, the opening angle is 3,3 mr. The beam spot size at the target position is then expected to have a diameter of 37 mm. This agrees well with photos taken during the deuterium run.

Two 2 week periods have been used for commissioning of the coherent beam with the participation of the Kharkov group and Ken Livingstone from Glasgow.
Vladimir Ganenko will report on these tests.
The project was supported by the I3HP JRA3 EuroTag funding a postdoc, Dmytro Pugachov, for two years. The equipment was funded by the Swedish Research Council and the Royal Physiographic Society in Lund.

Run Reports
New focal plane hodoscope
An application to the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation was submitted in December 2007 and funded in June 2008.
The design is very similar to the Glasgow design for the tagger in Mainz. We will use the same electronic boards designed by John Annand and the same Hamamatsu 10 mm diameter PM tubes. The application also covers new data aquisition equipment.
The length of the focal plane for the MT is 1240 mm, and for the ET 1330 mm. We will build a 1200 mm long hodoscope with 160 scintillators, each 3 x 10,5 x 60 mm.

This in-beam monitor is used for experiments upstream of the target. The ratio between the count rate of the in-beam monitor and the count rate in the focal plane is proportional to the tagging efficiency and may be used to monitor this quantity during a run.

The pixel apparatus for the SLS is a novel type of X-ray detector developed at the Swiss Light Source. It is a two-dimensional hybrid pixel array detector operating in a single-photon counting mode. The module used at MAX-lab is composed of approximately 100 000 172 m square pixels arranged in a matrix 487 x 192. It comprises a preamplifier, a comparator and a counter. The readout time is 5 ms. The count rate may be as high as 1,5 MHz/s/pixel. The detector is mainly sensitive to X-rays with energies below 20-50 keV.
