Updates From Existing Light Sources
Chairman: F. Perez

Presentations were heard from ASTRID, DESY, ELETTRA, ESRF, SLS and SRS.

ESRF, who celebrate they’re 25th anniversary next year, are looking to improve the emittance of their machine within the same tunnel via an internal project. ELETTRA’s 3rd harmonic cavity showed that it was the right choice for decreasing bunch length. This was the first meeting attended by ASTRID who gave a presentation on their RF system which contained no circulators. The presentations from DESY and SRS gave an overview of the years high/low lights.
