Abstract

With the 3 GeV electron beam energy for the National Synchro-tron Light Source II (NSLS-II) ring, only superconducting wig-glers (SCW) producing greater than 4T peak field can cover the photon energy range of 20keV and 200keV with sufficient num-ber of photons. The High energy Engineering X-ray (HEX) Dif-fraction beamline, which is primarily funded by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and NSLS-II, will be equipped with a 1.2m-long SCW with 70mm period length and 4.3T on-axis field. This SCW is free from the use of liquid Helium and is cooled only with cryo-coolers. The Electron Beam Chamber (EBC) with vertical aper-ture of 8mm is made from 316LN stainless steel and copper plat-ing is applied both entire upper surface and +- 12.5mm wide from the center in the inner surface. The expected heat load from the electron beam of the NSLS-II ring is estimated to be 10W/m. This paper describes the design principles and engineering chal-lenges for the device.
