Quick talks of 2 minutes per speaker giving an overview of available presentations in the Show & Tell session.
The ESRF made digital twin EBSS, the EBS control system simulator, was an essential tool for the fast commissioning of the ESRF-EBS machine. In the framework of the SOLEIL II upgrade project, and with the help of ESRF team, the EBSS code was adapted for the SOLEIL II lattice to provide an easy way to test new concepts which will be used to prepare the commissioning of SOLEIL II.

- Demonstration of the BESSY II digital twin running as backend to matlab middle layer on a laptop.
- Demonstration of BESSY II digital twin architecture.
- Same client run vs twin and machine
General control room tour with information about BESSY II operation and development.
In this session, we introduce PAMILA (Particle Accelerator MIddle LAyer), a novel concept code recently developed at NSLS-II, designed to serve as a new Python middle layer package for particle accelerators. The demonstration can cover the following key aspects: (1) a minimum required environment and configuration necessary to start using the code, (2) programmatic user interfaces to interact...
The compact linear accelerator for research and applications (CLARA) is a 250 MeV ultrabright electron beam test facility at STFC Daresbury Laboratory. A user beamline has been designed to maximize the exploitation of CLARA in a variety of fields, including novel acceleration and new modalities of radiotherapy. The creation of high-level software for daily operation and user experiments has...
The integration of machine learning (ML) into control systems is a key point of interest in the field of accelerator operation. We will present the application of ML in accelerator operations at the SOLARIS synchrotron. We tested ML interfaces based on TensorFlow, XGBboost and pyTorch utilizing multicore and GPU for computation speed up. At the current stage we focus on several areas of...
A description of challenges we faced at the ESRF in handling combined function magnets using complex magnetic model and their integration in both the accelerator control system and digital twins.
The University of Sarajevo Physics Department in collaboration with CERN’s Accelerator Beam Physics group propose a compact linear accelerator design for applied physics research spanning from beam dynamics studies to material surface analysis. The Sarajevo Ion Accelerator (SARAI) consists of an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source, a low energy beam transferline (LEBT) and a...
At Diamond, many Python high-level applications interact with the accelerator (e.g., orbit feedback systems, BBA, etc.). Most use PyTAC (Python Toolkit for Accelerator Control) to interact with the machine.
We also have ATIP (Accelerator Toolbox Interface for Pytac). This allows users to interact with a PyAT simulation through PyTAC in the same way they would use the real machine.
In...
With the ramp-up of LCLS-II operations, the development of new high-level application tools and the modernizing of existing MATLAB software remain critical priorities. An ongoing initiative focuses on creating Python-based tools to streamline workflows and provide a robust set of reusable building block functions for accelerator applications. These tools are designed to simplify the...
The python control tools developed by the Brazilian light source (SIRIUS) were presented at the first Accelerator Middle Layer workshop (https://indico.desy.de/event/43233/).
This tool is presently the only python middle layer in operation at a storage ring light sources and therefore represents an excellent baseline for any future similar development.
It was therefore decided to...
The authors will show pseudo-code snippets from the draft specification document currently edited within the collaboration. Contribution will be allowed during the talk itself!
We at SLAC, jointly with Radiasoft, present our efforts to modernize SLAC’s current software suite with a demo of a Webapp version of Profile Monitor GUI. Web browsers are ubiquitous, highly optimized, and set the standard for efficient graphical user interfaces. This demo will demonstrate the power and flexibility of Webapps in an accelerator facility, and imagine what the future of...
