This unit cell was repeated roughly 50 times around the CESR tunnel. A FODO-based accelerator is very flexible and the design allowed for many modes of running over the following decades, up to and including the present-day "arc pretzel" CHESS operations.
The migration of this 26-ton superconducting magnet marks the last major component to be removed from the detector as the lab prepares for its next major upgrade, CHESS-U. After months of disassembly of the structural steel, iron rings, calorimeter and interleaved muon chambers, the CLEO solenoid will soon be transported to its new home at Jefferson Lab in Virginia, where it will come out of retirement for a whole new set of experiments.
The project relocates five experimental stations and gives each of the new stations an independently tunable high-flux undulator source. This workshop shared the goal of identifying pressing and important scientific needs for a future high-energy x-ray source utilizing unique capabilities of the Cornell accelerator and special types of organization and user support.

This will involve relocating the five experimental stations on the A, B, C, and D beamlines, and upgrading the replacement stations with independently tunable high-flux undulator sources.

As in past years, the user community heard updates on status, vision and new capabilities by CHESS Director Joel Brock and Associate Director Ernie Fontes, followed by Marian Szebenyi speaking for MacCHESS and Matthew Miller for the InSitμ program. Accelerator physicist James Shanks talked about successful conclusions to upgrade projects he mentioned last year towards reducing x-ray beam sizes at the undulator sources, reducing injection times, and increasing currents in the storage ring.
In addition, this past year the A2 station was upgraded to deliver filtered white beam from its undulator; early feasibility work doing fast time-resolved Laue and energy-dispersive diffraction was very successful. With additional demand on A2, the time came to ask if the A1 station could be reconfigured to deliver x-rays energies above 19.5 keV.
