Commissioning of the synchrotron radiation protection system and beamlines frontends at NSLS-II

Abstract

Abstract. The first eight insertion devices (IDs) at the NSLS-II were commissioned during the fall run of 2014. In this paper we discuss commissioning of the synchrotron radiation protection (SRP) system and beamline frontends (FE) for the respective IDs. We describe the diagnostics utilized if FE commissioning and a procedure that was used for the alignment of the photon beam from insertion devices in the beamline frontends. Then we discuss the current status of the SRP system and operation of the commissioned frontends.
