Abstract
The Advanced Photon Source (APS) is a synchrotron X-ray facility located at Argonne National
Laboratory that has been in operation since 1996. An extensive upgrade to replace the original APS
electron storage ring with a state-of-the-art machine was recently completed. The ~1,100-meter
circumference storage ring generates X-rays up to 500 times brighter than those created by the original
APS. With the new ring completed, focus has shifted to the upgrade and realignment of X-ray beamlines.
This presentation will report the progress of the APS Upgrade project and share survey and alignment
results for accelerator module assembly and installation, highlighting the metrology methods utilized in
building the new storage ring.
