Dipole Chamber

Mirror M1 is shown in red. Slots and vacuum
ports are not shown. M1 reflects the radiation downward.
Pressure requirement: 1 nTorr with 200 mA beam current.
60 % of the synchrotron radiation (SR) in the bend is
absorbed by the water cooled metallic mirror M1
(red in the picture).
We fabricated a test chamber (pictured below) for RF testing purposes and so far there are no
trapped modes to worry about with this unconventional vacuum chamber design.
