BCMT-developed magnetics systems for facilities like the Advanced Light Source and its proposed upgrade, and SLAC’s LCLS-II project, span the range from electromagnets and hybrid (combination systems incorporating permanent magnets and iron-core electromagnets) magnets, to pure permanent-magnet systems, to superconducing magnets using materials at or beyond the state of the art. Magnet tuning technologies (pulse-wire and small-bore) are also important contributions we can make.

New small bore vacuum and magnet technologies, coupled with new storage-ring magnetic lattices, will usher in a new generation of diffraction-limited upgrades to the ALS and similar facilities. BCMT is pioneering new designs to realize these possibilities. 
Linear, helical-bifilar variable-polarization, and Delta undulators, and multiple-port, chicaned undulator trains for synchrotron straight sections, are some of the premier synchrotron-radiation-producing devices, beyond the present state of the art, we envision for a diffraction-limited ALS-U and future FELs. 
From the world’s first pure-PM and hybrid undulators, to today’s hysteresis-free permanent magnet chicanes, to tomorrow’s ultra-compact, tunable, pure permanent magnet systems, BCMT is on the forefront of development of new PM applications for accelerators and beyond.
