“NSLS-II accelerator systems have been commissioned in 2014 and now operating at 350 mA with horizontal emittance of 1 nm rad. 20 beam lines are taking synchrotron radiation beams at the rate of 4750 hours a year.

In this presentation the speaker will discuss milestones of beam commissioning and increasing performance of the NSLS-II injector and storage ring. Findings from recent beam studies and advances in accelerator physics will be presented.”
