A three-orthogonal-Hall-probe assembly with an 'on the fly' mapping method has been developed to characterize an elliptically polarizing undulator (EPU). The underlying design concept is that it can measure the three real field components without any field correction under a reliable and synchronization measurement method. Therefore, the relative central position shift, orthogonal angle and the planar Hall effect error between the three Hall probes should be calibrated and readjusted. Experimental results demonstrate that this method can yield an r.m.s. reproducibility of 10 G cm for the three field components and 2 G for the peak field strength. Under precision conditions this system can completely measure the three on-axis field components within 2 min for a 4 m-long EPU.

This paper presents the design of magnets for the storage ring of the 3-GeV Taiwan Photon Source project. Detailed calculations of the field were performed according to a three-dimensional model, and the magnetic geometry was determined in transverse and longitudinal planes to conform to highly precise magnetic fields. The final tolerances of the pole profiles of the magnets within 20 were manufactured and measured in all prototype magnets. The characteristics of the magnetic fields were measured with Hall-probe and rotating-coil systems to verify the quality of the magnetic fields. The centers of the magnets will be aligned on the girder with precisely machined rails within 20 , and the magnets have no provision for shimming on the girder. The features of the main field and homogeneity of these magnets are described and analysed to reveal the satisfactory magnetic performance.Index Terms-Accelerator magnet, dipole magnet, field measurement, quadrupole magnet, sextupole magnet.

In this work, a 1 m long Sasaki-type elliptically polarizing undulator (EPU) prototype with 5.6 cm period length is used to examine the mechanical design feasibility as well as magnetic ®eld performance. The magnetic ®eld characteristics of the EPU5.6 prototype at various phase shifts and gap motion are described. The ®eld errors from mechanical tolerances, magnet block errors, end ®eld effects and phase/gap motion effects are analysed. The procedures related to correcting the ®eld with the block position tuning, iron shimming and the trim blocks at both ends are outlined.

Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a synchrotron radiation facility of medium energy, 3 GeV, and low emittance, under construction at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC). The multipole errors of lattice magnets were rigorously examined and corrected so as to maintain the dynamic aperture of the electron beam in the storage ring. The lattice magnets were fully inspected at both the vendor and vendee sites. The multipole errors of the lattice magnets were tested and corrected. In particular, the sextupole magnets have the pole position adjusted to correct the multipole errors so as to conform to the specification. The yoke cutting is to correct the octupole error of the long-quadrupole magnets. The shimming of the magnetic center and the final examination of the magnets will be undertaken at NSRRC. In this paper, we report the methods of correcting the multipole errors, the magnetic center, and the performance of the TPS lattice magnets.
