Abstract :
Commissioning of the University of Maryland Electron ring (UMER) is currently underway. We discuss the various electrical systems of UMER. The power system includes 114 supplies for 70+ air-core magnetic quadrupoles, 36 Bending dipoles and 30+ steering dipoles as well as earth’s field compensating coils. Systems for data collection comprise multiplexers and fast digitizers for diagnostics including 15 fast beam position monitors (BPMs) and video capture from fluorescent screen monitors. Several pulsers have been built in-house for injection and extraction magnets. The stringent timing scheme is also presented.
