Abstract

The commissioning of the 1 GeV Duke Storage Ring began in November, 1994 with the demonstration of injection, storage and ramping to 1 GeV at the first attempt. The ring is now operational. The Duke project is unique in that the storage ring and linac were designed, constructed and commissioned by a small new University laboratory, operating on a low budget. The team is comprised of six accelerator physicists and graduate students, eight engineers, and fifteen technicians.
