Abstract

Before the commissioning of SPring-8, the in-vacuum hybrid undulator developed at SPring-8 had been brought to the ESRF for the first beam test in the summer of 1996. The purpose of this test was to investigate the influence of the in-vacuum undulator on the beam and check its vacuum system. However, heating by the resistive wall impedance turned out to be a critical issue for the in-vacuum undulators.
