Single bunch collective effects in PLS storage ring
The single bunch collective effects such as the bunch lengthening due to the potential well distortion and the microwave instability which also increases the energy spread, the transverse head-tail instability, and the transverse strong head-tail instability are investigated in the Pohang Light Source storage ring. The threshold current and the Chao-Gareyte scaling factor of the bunch lengthening, the longitudinal broadband impedance, and the transverse impedance have been measured and compared with the ZAP code results.

RF noise driven dipole mode parametric resonance
In the Pohang Light Source (PLS) storage ring, we have occasionally experienced the abnormal spontaneous beam. lifetime reduction and strong longitudinal damping. Due to the abnormal beam lifetime reduction, available beam time is reduced substantially. From the recent data analysis of the PLS longitudinal feedback system (LFS) and the streak camera, we have found that the abnormal phenomena can be generated by the RF noise via the dipole mode parametric resonance of the RF phase modulation. We describe the observation of the dipole mode parametric resonance driven by the RF noise and compare it with a simulation result in the PLS storage ring.

A method of closed orbit correction under constraint conditions
We have developed the correction algorithm of the closed orbit distortion (COD) under the constraint condition where beam positions at particular points are not changed. The new algorithm is based on the modified PSINOM algorithm including the regularization process in order to avoid the inversion problem of the ill-posed response matrices. We have confirmed that the COD is well corrected with no orbit leak in the simulation and is in good agreement with the experiment.

Present status of the Pohang Light Source
The Pohang Light Source (PLS) Project is now in its final year of the construction phase. The machine consists of a full energy (2 GeV) linear accelerator injector, a storage ring with a 12‐period TBA structure, and 32 eventual beamlines from insertion devices and bending magnets. The commissioning of the injector linac was completed in June 1994. The overall commissioning of the PLS is expected to be completed by the end of 1994. The facility will provide high brightness, tunable radiation in a wide spectral range up to 30 keV of photon energy, and will serve national and international users starting in mid‐1995.

Low frequency longitudinal relaxation oscillation
From the recent data analysis of the longitudinal feedback system and the streak camera, we have found a longitudinal relaxation beam oscillation whose frequency is a multiple of 36 Hz. When the relaxation oscillation is generated, horizontally oscillating wide beams are observed at the diagnostic beamline, and the beam lifetime is fluctuated. The strength of the longitudinal coupled bunch mode instabilities is also modulated sinusoidally. We have described the observed longitudinal relaxation oscillation in the Pohang Light Source storage ring.

Ultra-low noise single-photon detector based on Si avalanche photodiode.
We report operation and characterization of a lab-assembled single-photon detector based on commercial silicon avalanche photodiodes (PerkinElmer C30902SH, C30921SH). Dark count rate as low as 5 Hz was achieved by cooling the photodiodes down to -80 °C. While afterpulsing increased as the photodiode temperature was decreased, total afterpulse probability did not become significant due to detector's relatively long deadtime in a passively-quenched scheme. We measured photon detection efficiency >50% at 806 nm.

Separable Four-dimensional Harmonic Oscillators and Representations of the Poincaré Group
It is possible to construct representations of the Lorentz group using four-dimensional harmonic oscillators. This allows us to construct three-dimensional wave functions with the usual rotational symmetry for space-like coordinates and one-dimensional wave function for time-like coordinate. It is then possible to construct a representation of the Poincaré group for a massive particles having the O(3) internal space-time symmetry in its rest frame. This oscillator can also be separated into two transverse components and the two-dimensional world of the longitudinal and time-like coordinates. The transverse components remain unchanged under Lorentz boosts, while it is possible to construct the squeeze representation of the O(1, 1) group in the space of the longitudinal and time-like coordinates. While the squeeze representation forms the basic language for squeezed states of light, it can be combined with the transverse components to form the representation of the Poincarè group for relativistic extended particles.

Growth time of the longitudinal coupled bunch mode beam instability at the Duke FEL facility
To determine the required power of an amplifier for the longitudinal feedback (LFB) system, the growth time of the strongest longitudinal coupled bunch mode instability (CBMI) in the Duke storage ring should be measured in advance. In 2005, we measured strength of the strongest longitudinal beam instability in the Duke storage ring with four and eight symmetrically filled buckets. By analyzing measured data, the growth time of the strongest dipole mode of the longitudinal CBMI in the Duke storage ring can be estimated. At a beam energy of 274 MeV, the growth time is about 0.365 ms for a total stored beam current of 160 mA. From the measured growth time, we estimated the required power of the amplifier for the LFB system. To damp all harmful longitudinal CBMIs with an energy deviation of 0.1 % (rms) within its growth time of 0.365 ms, we have to supply about HOW (rms) to an LFB kicker whose a central frequency is 937.3875 MHz. In this paper, we describe the growth time of the longitudinal CBMI at the Duke storage ring and the estimation of the required power for the LFB system to damp all CBMIs within 0.365 ms.

O(3,3)-like Symmetries of Coupled Harmonic Oscillators
In classical mechanics, the system of two coupled harmonic oscillators is shown to possess the symmetry of the Lorentz group O(3,3) or SL(4,r) in the four‐dimensional phase space. In quantum mechanics, the symmetry is reduced to that of O(3,2) or Sp(4), which is a subgroup of O(3,3) or SL(4,r), respectively. It is shown that among the six Sp(4)‐like subgroups, only one possesses the symmetry which can be translated into the group of unitary transformations in quantum mechanics.

Does Lorentz Boost Destroy Coherence
It is shown that the time-energy uncertainty relation can be combined into the position-momentum uncertainty relation covariantly in the quark model of hadrons. This leads to a Lorentz-invariant form of the uncertainty relations. This model explains that the quark model and the parton model are two different manifestations of the same covariant model. In particular, this covariant model explains why the coherent amplitudes in the quark model become incoherent, after a Lorentz boost, in the parton model. It is shown that this lack of coherence is consistent with the present form of quantum mechanics.
