Booster requirements for Advanced Photon Source I-nm emittance upgrade lattices

In recent years, we have explored various upgrade options for the Advanced Photon Source (APS) storage ring that would provide the user community with higher brightness. Increased brightness would be accomplished by reducing the emittance of the storage ring as well as increasing the stored beam current from 100 mA to 200 mA. Two upgrade lattices were developed that reduce the effective beam emittance to 1 nm from the present 2.7 nm. These lattices have reduced dynamic aperture compared to the present ring lattice, which may require a reduced emittance booster to minimize injection losses. This paper describes injection tracking simulations that explore how high the booster emittance can be and still have no losses at injection for the 1-nm ring upgrade lattices. An alternative booster lattice is presented with reduced emittance compared to the present booster lattice (65 nm).
