The permanent magnet material must therefore be protected from direct hits by the electron<br />

beam. The material is a powder-metallurgical product and is quite brittle, i.e., has very low<br />

ductility, and exposure to one pulse might fracture it. Independent of structural concerns,<br />

temperature changes of this magnitude would cause permanent changes in the remanent magnetic<br />

field, which are not acceptable.<br />

Since the magnetic material has atomic properties very similar to copper, neither copper nor<br />

materials with equal or higher atomic number are suitable as primary collimator materials. The<br />

primary material must be protected by a low-Z material like titanium.<br />

8.8.1.3 Undulator Vacuum Chamber<br />

There are two distinctly different beam exposure scenarios for the undulator vacuum<br />

chamber. The first is direct e - -beam exposure at the entrance to the undulator with the momentum<br />

vector approximately parallel to the undulator and vacuum chamber axis (this assumes that no<br />

collimator is in place). The second exposure scenario results from excessive beam deflection<br />

inside the undulator resulting in the beam impinging at shallow angles onto the vacuum chamber.<br />

Selection of an appropriate material for the vacuum chamber involves tradeoffs between physics<br />

performance, survival during direct primary beam exposure, and ease of manufacture, and thus<br />

economics. Physics performance dictates a chamber material of low electrical resistivity, at least<br />

on the inside surface, to keep the resistive wall wake function at acceptable levels. Materials like<br />

copper and aluminum are good choices.<br />

Long-term survival against direct hits by the e - -beam requires a low-Z material with good<br />

strength and endurance characteristics. Titanium and some of its alloys, as well as some<br />

aluminum alloys, are good choices. Since the undulator and its vacuum chamber are ~100 m long,<br />

the chamber needs to be built in segments (anticipated modular length ~3.4 m) and joined by<br />

vacuum flanges and bellows. The materials mentioned above are technically feasible to use, but<br />

they also present fabrication, installation, and economic challenges. Copper, aluminum, titanium,<br />

and stainless steel were evaluated for possible use as vacuum chamber material. Stainless steel is<br />

the final choice, and an analysis of its response to the two exposure scenarios is presented below.<br />

Cost effective manufacturing, ease of installation, and maintenance for ultra-high vacuum make<br />

stainless steel a first choice, but at the expense of high electrical resistivity. This handicap can be<br />

compensated by surface coating with a low resistivity material.<br />

8.8.1.4 Beam Strikes at the Entrance to the Vacuum Chamber<br />

Using the minimum ionization loss and no shower multiplicity ( = 1), the power<br />

deposition at normal incidence to the chamber is<br />

using dE/dx for iron to approximate stainless steel.<br />
