IPAC'23 - Particle Accelerator Projects and Upgrades

IPAC’23 / PARTICLE ACCELERATOR PROJECTS AND UPGRADES 42 Project Region America Project Location Brazil Project Type New Project Project Description Sirius is a fourth-generation synchrotron light source based on a 3-GeV storage ring with a Multi-Bend Achromat magnet lattice. It provides electron beams that match the phase space of x-ray photons and approach their diffraction limit for tender x-rays. The dramatic increase in brightness and coherence of the source, combined with advances in optics, precision mechatronics, detectors, and computing, opens new research avenues within previously inaccessible spatiotemporal scales. Besides the building and accelerators of the green field machine, the project’s first phase provided 14 beamlines. Six are currently open for regular proposal calls, four in commissioning, and 4 in construction, giving scattering, imaging, and spectroscopy capabilities spanning length scales from centimeters to angstroms. Ten new beamlines are foreseen in the project’s second phase, yet to be approved, covering THz, UV, soft x-ray, tender x-ray, and hard x-rays.
