The light source at National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory(NSRL), University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), Hefei, Anhui province, China, is called Hefei Light Source which is called HLS for short (which is different from the meaning of Hydrostatic Levelling System here). Hefei Light Source was initially built from 1984 to 1992. Now, as plan from 2010 to 2012, Hefei Light...

Over a long period of time the least squares compensation program at CERN, LGC, has been gradually re-written in C++. Part of the program has been integrated into a software library, which is also used in a number of other programs, with the functionality specific to LGC built on top. The geodetic transformations used within the program have been updated and a sparse matrix representation...

The integration of laser scans into a Geographic Information System (GIS) is presented. Examples include detailed scans of the Beam Transport Hall (BTH) in SLAC's Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). These scans were made at various density levels and portions were subsequently added to an evolving GIS for the Metrology Department. This poster highlights various results of this integration and...

Results on performance test of laser trackers of FARO are presented. Test was performed on the following items. (1) Drift of output after power on, (2) long term variation of output, (3) reproducibility of point measurements, and (4) comparison between measurement with a laser tracker and the one with a stretched wire.

One of the many responsibilities of the Survey and Alignment team at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) is the periodic monitoring of the positional stability of the Radiation Safety System (RSS). The RSS for all operational experiment x-ray beamlines consist of approximately one thousand RSS components. Access to these components is limited to a brief maintenance period, and the use of...

This poster presents the major survey and alignment activities at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory since 2008. The major project during the last two years has been the construction of the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) with the development of beam lines still ongoing. Besides the LCLS project a variety of smaller projects are under way. This poster will give a brief overview of the...

Survey & alignment of machine components and experiments
The SPIRAL2 project located at the Grand Accélérateur National d’Ions Lourds (GANIL facility - Caen, France) has been studied since the beginning of 2001, and is now under construction. This project aims at delivering rare (radioactive) isotope beams with intensities not yet available with presently running machines. An important aspect of this project is that it is foreseen to deliver up to...

We adopted straightness measurement using a level for evaluating vertical aligning straightness of the 600-m-long KEK electron/positron linac. It measures tangential angles of the straightness and obtains the straightness by integrating the measured angles without affected by any substantial straightness references.
Here, straight bars with length of from 1640 mm to 2306 mm were put on...

The Centro Nazionale Adroterapia Oncologica (CNAO) is the first medical accelerator facility for hadrontherapy with C6+ and protons in Italy. Two ECR ion sources produce a beam injected into a LINAC and accelerated at 7 MeV. A 78m circumference synchrotron stores and accelerates the beam up to 400 MeV/u. Each one of the three treatment rooms receives the beam extracted by the synchrotron; the...

A new set of monuments was installed for the SuperKEKB project.
SuperKEKB is a next-generation B-factory which uses the same tunnel as
KEKB. Many magnets will be replaced or relocated for SuperKEKB in order
to realize collisions with extremely small beams. Placing survey
monuments in the accelerator tunnel, which was built three decades ago,
was not an easy task for many reasons, as will...

ALBA, a third generation synchrotron light facility built in Barcelona is now almost ready for commissioning. Mechanical installation is now completed and the 100 MeV LINAC as well as the 3 GeV booster injector have already been commissioned.
The survey and alignment strategy presented during previous workshops has been implemented and allowed us to fulfill all physicist requirements...

instrumentation, software and methods
For the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) project an active pre-alignment system is planned to be used with thousands of wire position sensors (WPS). The capacitive WPS technology used at CERN is rather expensive and limited to the use of conductive reference wires. Alternative sensor and wire solutions are studied.
Open Source Instruments Inc is developing a CCD camera based WPS. This sensor...
