Electromagnetic Elliptical Wiggler
In January 1998, an Electromagnetic Elliptical Wiggler (EEW) was installed in Elettra. This project commenced in Febrary 1996, with partial European Commision funding as a collaboration between Sincrotrone Trieste, Bessy and Max-Lab.
The device, built by DANFYSIK, is a source of circularly polarized light in VUV/Soft X ray region with variable helicity (in the range 5 eV - 1.3 KeV) and combines horizontal and vertical magnetic field in the same structure. The vertical field component is powered with d.c., while the horizontal field has 3 different operation mode:
- D.C.
- Trapezoidal from 0.1-1 Hz
- Sinusoidal from 10-100 Hz.
| Period length | 212 mm | |
| Number of poles | 32 Vert., 31 Hor. | |
| Total length | 3.3. m | |
| Nominal field | 0.5 T Vert. (at 160 A) , ±0.1 T Hor. (at ±275 A) | |
| Pole termination sequence (Hor. and Vert.) | +1/4, -3/4, +1, -1, ... |
