Abstract

Acceleration cycle studies of the LNLS 1.15 GeV UVX electron storage ring are described. Since this ring will initially be injected at low energies (100 MeV), questions related to the behavior of beam lifetime during the ramping period (about 10 s), especially at the lowest energies, are crucial for the successful operation of the machine. In this work, we present results of Touschek lifetimes, due to single and multiple scattering effects, compared with damping times at various energies. We show that these effects should not lead to appreciable stored current losses
