Electron cloud instability studies in the Beijing Electron Positron Collider
The electron cloud instability (ECI) in the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) was studied systematically with experiments and simulations in recent years. Several electron cloud detectors have been installed into the BEPC storage ring to measure the electron yield. The effects of solenoid, the clearing electrode, the chromaticity, and the octupole on ECI have been investigated in BEPC experimentally. To evaluate the ECI in BEPCII, the upgrade project of BEPC, a computer code has been developed to simulate the electron density in the antechamber under different conditions, as well as the progress of the single bunch and coupled-bunch instabilities caused by the electron cloud. The experimental and simulation results, as well as the activities, are reported in this paper.

Electron cloud instability experiments on the BEPC
The electron cloud instability (ECI), which takes place in positively charged particle circular accelerators, is studied both experimentally and theoretically in the recent years. Many ECI-related experiments, including electron cloud (EC) measurement, beam parameter dependences, instability cure, etc., have been carried out on the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) since 1996. A great number of fruitful results are obtained from these experiments, which also influence the simulation studies in the meantime. Ways to control the ECI are also studied in the experiments. Some achievements are beneficial for the BEPCII, the upgraded project of BEPC in the near future.

BEAM INSTABILITIY STUDIES OF BEPC AND BEPCII
BEPC has been well operated for more than 15 years, and it will be upgraded to a double ring electron positron collider in the existing tunnel, namely BEPCII. This paper describes the recent studies on beam instabilities for the improvement of BEPC performance as well as for BEPCII. The instabilities caused by impedance and twostream effects are investigated. The experimental and simulation results are reported.

STUDIES ON THE BEAM CURRENT DEPENDENT PHENOMENA IN THE BEPC-II STORAGE RINGS
The commissioning of the upgrade project of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII) started on Nov. 12, 2006. During the 1 and 2 stages of the commissioning of the BEPCII rings, we had got the luminosity one tenth of its design value, provided beams to synchrotron radiation users for ~ 4 months, and studied beam dynamics as well. In this paper, some preliminary results of the beam dynamics will be given. INTRODUCTION The upgrade project of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC), BEPCII, is mainly composed of a linac, two transport lines and two storage rings in parallel for eand e+ beams, respectively. The two halves of the outer rings are connected as a synchrotron radiation (SR) ring, with 14 beam lines extracted from 5 wigglers and 9 bending magnets. The layout and other details of the three rings of BEPCII can be found in [1]. In this paper, we mainly discuss some beam current dependent phenomena in the collision rings, say, BER and BPR for eand e+ beams, respectively. Some main nominal parameters of the lattice are listed in Table 1. Table 1: Main parameters of the BEPCII collision rings Beam energy GeV 1.89 Circumference m 237.53 Beam current A 0.91 Bunch current / Bunch No. mA 9.8 / 93 Natural bunch length mm 13.6 RF frequency MHz 499.8 Harmonic number 396 Emittance (x/y) nm.rad 144/2.2 β function at IP (x/y) m 1.0/0.015 Crossing angle mrad ±11 Tune (x/y/s) 6.54/5.59/0.034 Momentum compaction 0.0237 Energy spread 5.16×10 Natural chromaticity (x/y) −10.8/−20.8 Luminosity cms 1×10 Both BER and BPR have same magnetic lattices with the super period number of 1. Figure 1 shows the Twiss functions in the interaction region, the RF region and the whole ring. In order to have a big emittance and a high beam current, a quasi-FODO structure with 10 dipoles and 2 missing dipoles in each arc is applied. In the second section, we will discuss the single bunch beam dynamics studies. Multi-bunch beam effects will be introduced in section 3. Some instabilities were observed and showed in section 4. At last, a summary will be given. Figure 1: Twiss functions in the IR (up-left), the RF region (up-right) and the whole ring (down) of BER/BPR SINGLE BUNCH BEAM DYNAMICS Optics correction After beams were injected smoothly into the rings, the β functions along the rings are measured before and after the optics corrections based on the measured response matrices [2]. The relative errors between the nominal and measured beta functions are less then 10% averagely. Other Twiss functions, such as dispersions and transverse tunes, were also measured and close to the design values. Under these circumstances, we could do some beam observations and measurements of other parameter. Beam energy spread Beam energy spread was measured with the method of longitudinal quantum lifetime. If the RF voltage is set to keep a relatively short beam lifetime, say 20 or 30 min, thus the longitudinal quantum lifetime can be considered as the dominant one. The beam energy spread at different bunch current could be estimated with the longitudinal momentum acceptance. Figure 2 shows the beam energy spreads at different bunch current in both BER and BPR. 5.1 5.14 5.18 5.22 5.26 0 3 6 9 12 Ib(mA) σ (Ε −4 )

Precise analyses of experimental results offer some conclusions, which are consistent with theoretical expectations. The system plays an important role in study of beam instability and improvement of machine performance.

HLS bunch current measurement system
Bunch current is an important parameter for studying the injection fill-pattern in the storage ring and the instability threshold of the bunch, and the bunch current monitor also is an indispensable tool for the top-up injection. A bunch current measurement (BCM) system has been developed to meet the needs of the upgrade project of Hefei Light Source (HLS). This paper presents the layout of the BCM system. The system based on a high-speed digital oscilloscope can be used to measure the bunch current and synchronous phase shift. To obtain the absolute value of bunch-by-bunch current, the calibration coefficient is measured and analyzed. Error analysis shows that the RMS of bunch current is less than 0.01 mA when bunch current is about 5 mA, which can meet project requirement.

Measurements of Higgs boson production and couplings in diboson final states with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
Measurements are presented of production properties and couplings of the recently discovered Higgs boson using the decays into boson pairs, H --> gamma-gamma, H --> ZZ* --> 4 leptons and H --> WW --> 2 leptons + 2 neutrinos. The results are based on the complete pp collision data sample recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider at centre-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 25/fb. Evidence for Higgs boson production through vector-boson fusion is reported. Results of combined fits probing Higgs boson couplings to fermions and bosons, as well as anomalous contributions to loop-induced production and decay modes, are presented. All measurements are consistent with expectations for the Standard Model Higgs boson.
