Control system for the superconducting insertion devices of NSRRC
To enhance hard X-ray production in the 1.5 GeV storage ring of NSRRC to serve the rapidly growing X-ray user community in Taiwan, the storage ring are planed to install up to five superconducting insertion devices. A 6 Tesla superconducting wavelength shifter was installed in mid-2002. A 3.2 Tesla superconducting multipole wiggler will be installed in the fall of 2003. The project for the other three multipole wigglers is launched. The control system had been implemented to support the operation of the superconducting insertion devices. The control system play a role to coordinate the operation of the main power supply and the trimming power supplies to charge/discharge the magnet and provide interlock protection for the magnet coils and vacuum ducts. A friendly user interface and various application programs are used to support routine operation. Design considerations and details of the implementation are also presented.

Superconducting wiggler with semi-cold beam duct at Taiwan light source
Abstract A 3.2 T superconducting wiggler with a periodic length of 6 cm and 32 poles was designed and fabricated as an X-ray source. The beam duct of this magnet is a semi-cold, ultra-high vacuum chamber that consists of an aluminum and stainless steel taper. The number of poles in this magnet design is even, to minimize the integral strengths of the multipole components. Two measurement systems—involving room-temperature and cryogenic Hall probes—were set up to measure the field of the superconducting wiggler. A cryogenic plant that supplied liquid helium and nitrogen to the superconducting wiggler has already been established. The performance of magnet construction is good and the commissioning of the superconducting wiggler in the storage ring has been successful. No trim coil compensation on the magnet is required to adjust the electron beam orbit. Furthermore, the electron beams exhibit no loss and remain highly stable after the superconducting wiggler has been quenched.

Design of mechanical structure and cryostat for IASW superconducting wiggler at NSRRC
An in-achromatic superconducting wiggler (IASW) was successfully constructed and installed at the Taiwan Light Source (TLS) in January 2006. The cryostat with a 30 L liquid nitrogen aluminum reservoir shielding surrounds the helium vessel, which comprises the cold mass and 100 L liquid helium. The helium vessel is suspended by eight suspension links, which are thermally intercepted at 80 K and can be adjusted by applying tension, such that the center of the cold mass does not move during cooled to 4.2 K. A three-layered stainless tube was designed to prevent the transfer port from freezing and the steam- electricity separation system is designed to supply electricity and return the helium gas to prevent freezing of the power feedthrough.

SUPERCONDUCTING UNDULATOR WITH VARIABLY POLARIZED LIGHT
This study investigates planar in-vacuo superconducting elliptically polarized undulators with periodic length of 5 cm (SEPU5) producing linearly and circularly polarized infrared rays or x-rays source. The vertically wound racetrack coil is chosen for the coil and pole fabrication of the SEPU5. When the up and down magnetic pole arrays with alternative directions rotated wires in the horizontal plane, an elliptical field radiates elliptically polarized light in the electron storage ring, the free electron laser (FEL), and the energy recovery linac (ERL) facilities. Meanwhile, an un-rotated wire magnet array is constructed together with the rotated wire magnet array on the same undulator is used to switch the linear polarization in horizontal and vertical, as well as the right- and left-circular polarization radiation. This investigation describes the main factors of the planar and helical undulator design for FEL and the concepts concerning the magnet array structures of the superconducting undulators.

Construction and Performance of Superconducting Magnets for Synchrotron Radiation
Two superconducting magnets, one wavelength shifter with a field of 6 T and one wiggler with a field of 3.2 T, were constructed and routinely operated at Taiwan Light Source to generate synchrotron X-rays. Additionally, three short multipole wigglers with the same field of 3.1 T are under construction and will be installed in the three achromatic short straight sections. A warm beam duct with an inner gap of 20 mm and a 1.5 W GM type cryo-cooler were used in the wavelength shifter to achieve cryogen-free operation. For the 3.2 T wiggler, a cold beam duct with an inner gap of 11 mm was kept at 100 K temperature and no trim coil compensation is necessary for its operation. Meanwhile, no beam loss was observed when it was quenched. The design concept, magnetic field quality, and the commissioning results of these magnets will be presented.

Planning of insertion devices for the 3-GeV Taiwan Photon Source
The Taiwan photon source (TPS) is a 3-GeV storage ring with 24 straight sections for installation of insertion devices (ID), radio-frequency cavities (RF) and electron- beam injection. Most insertion devices are in-vacuum undulators to produce intense X-rays with a brilliance up to 1times1021 photons s-1 mrad-2 mm-2 per 0.1% bw. A superconducting wiggler is also necessary to provide higher energy in the medium-energy range of the TPS. The APPLE II elliptically polarized undulator and a long- period undulator provide a source with circular and any linear polarization and the VUV source. Projects to investigate a superconducting undulator and a cryogenic permanent-magnet undulator are launched for energies in a range 1.5-25 keV.

Leading-twist light cone distribution amplitudes for p-wave heavy quarkonium states
In this paper, a study of light-cone distribution amplitudes for p-wave heavy quarkonium states are presented. Within the light-front framework, the leading twist light-cone distribution amplitudes, and their relevant decay constants, have some simple relations. These relations can be further simplified when the non-relativistic limit and the wave function as a function of relative momentum |~ κ | are taken into consideration. In addition, the κ⊥ integrations in the equations of LCDAs and ξ-moments can be completed analytically when the Gaussian-type wave function is considered. After fixing the parame- ters that appear in the wave function, the curves and the corresponding decay constants of the LCDAs are plotted and calculated for the charmonium and bottomonium states. The first three non-vanishing ξ-moments of the LCDAs are estimated and are consistent with those of other theoretical approaches.

Study of rare $B^+_{c} \to D_{d,s}$ + lepton anti-lepton decays
We study the rare decays of $B_c^+\to D_{q}^{(*)+}l\bar{l}$ ($q=d,s$ and $l=\nu_l,e,\mu,\tau)$ in the standard model. The form factors are evaluated in the light front and constituent quark models, respectively. We find that the decay branching ratios calculated in the two models for $B_c^+\to D^+_q l\bar{l}$ agree well with each other, whereas those for $B_c^+\to D_q^{*+}l\bar{l}$ are different.

Factorization of the 3 d superconformal index
We prove that 3d superconformal index for general N = 2 U(N) gauge group with fundamentals and anti-fundmentals with/without Chern-Simons terms is factorized into vortex and anti-vortex partition function. We show that for simple cases, 3d vortex partition function coincides with a suitable topological open string partition function. We provide much more elegant derivation at the index level for N = 2 Seiberg-like dualities of unitary gauge groups with fundamantal matters and N = 4 mirror symmetry

Evidence for Aharony duality for orthogonal gauge groups
We study the Aharony duality for three dimensional $ \mathcal{N} = 2 $ supersymmetric gauge theories for orthogonal gauge groups with matters in vector representation. We provide the evidence for the duality by working out the partition function on S3 and the superconformal index, which show perfect agreement.
