The wakefield and impedance produced by the components of the NSLS-II storage ring have been computed for an electron bunch length of 3 mm rms. The results are summarized in a table giving for each component, the loss factor (kappapar ), the imaginary part of the longitudinal impedance at low frequency divided by the revolution harmonic (ImZpar/n), and the transverse kick factors (kappax,kappay).

A new high-brightness synchrotron light source (NSLS-II) is under design at BNL. The 3-GeV NSLS-II storage ring has a double-bend achromatic lattice with damping wigglers installed in zero-dispersion straights to reduce the emittance below 1 nm. In this paper, we present an overview of the impact of collective effects upon the performance of the storage ring. Subjects discussed include instability thresholds, Touschek lifetime and intra-beam scattering.

CESR-B type superconducting cavities are under consideration for acceleration of the electron beam in the 3 GeV NSLS-II storage ring. In this paper we present detailed investigation of longitudinal and transverse impedance of CESR-B cavity and transitions. Ferrite material is included in impedance analysis. Its effect on short range wakepotential has been studied using GdfidL code. The summary results of loss factors and kick factors are presented for a 3 mm rms bunch length.

In this paper we discuss computation of the coupling impedance of the vacuum chambers for the NSLS-II storage ring using the electromagnetic simulator GdfidL [1]. The impedance of the vacuum chambers depends on the geometric dimensions of the cross-section and height of the slot in the chamber wall. Of particular concern is the complex geometry of the infrared extraction chambers to be installed in special large-gap dipole magnets. In this case, wakefields are generated due to tapered transitions and large vertical-aperture ports with mirrors near the electron beam.
