Abstract

We have developed a method to measure the Touschek beam lifetime of an electron storage ring using spurious bunches in single-bunch operation by measuring changes in the single-bunch impurity over time. To measure a spurious bunch and the main bunch simultaneously, we use a photon counting method with sufficient dynamic range and response time. We demonstrate the method by measuring the Touschek beam lifetime in the UVSOR-II electron storage ring. We find that the Touschek beam lifetime dominates the total beam lifetime in UVSOR-II in the usual vacuum condition.
