The 78m low energy transfer line takes the electrons from the below-ground LINAC to the ground level booster in the newer CLS building, via two vertical chicanes. The full energy 2.9 GeV booster, chosen to give high orbit stability in the storage ring, operates at 1 Hz, with an RF frequency of 500 MHz, unsynchronised with the LINAC. This results in significant beam loss at the extraction energy.<ref name="Injection"/> ====Storage ring==== The storage ring cell structure has a fairly compact lattice with twelve straight sections available for injection, [[microwave cavity|RF cavities]] and 9 sections available for insertion devices. Each cell has two bending magnets detuned to allow some dispersion in the straights β the so-called double-bend achromat structure β and thus reduce the overall beam size. As well as the two bend magnets each cell has three families of quadrupole magnets and two families of [[sextupole magnet]]s. The ring circumference is 171m, with a straight section length of 5.2m.<ref name="PAC2001">{{cite journal | url=http://lss.fnal.gov/archive/proceedings/PAPERS/WPPH093.PDF | title=The Canadian Light Source: an update | journal=19th Particle Accelerator Conference (Pac 2001) | pages=2680 | year=2001 | accessdate=28 July 2012 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140502032624/http://lss.fnal.gov/archive/proceedings/PAPERS/WPPH093.PDF | archive-date=2 May 2014 | url-status=dead | df=dmy-all | bibcode=2001pac..conf.2680B | last1=Blomqvist | first1=I. | last2=Dallin | first2=L. | last3=Hallin | first3=E. | last4=Lowe | first4=D. | last5=Silzer | first5=R. | last6=De Jong | first6=M. }}</ref> The CLS is the smallest of the newer synchrotron facilities, which results in a relatively high horizontal [[beam emittance]] of 18.2 nm-rad.<ref name="Newest" /> The CLS was also one of the first facilities to [[chicane]] two [[undulator]]s in one straight section, to maximize the number of insertion device beamlines.<ref name="SRNupdate"/> All five of the phase I X-ray beamlines use insertion devices. Four use permanent magnet undulators designed and assembled at the CLS, including one in-vacuum undulator and one elliptically polarized undulator (EPU). The HXMA beamline uses a superconducting [[wiggler (synchrotron)|wiggler]] built by the [[Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics]] in [[Novosibirsk]].<ref name="SRNupdate"/> Phase II added two further devices including another Budker superconducting wiggler, for the BMIT beamline.<ref name="ID">{{cite web| url=http://www.lightsource.ca/operations/insertion_devices.php| title=Insertion devices| accessdate=28 July 2012| archive-date=28 July 2012| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120728075202/http://www.lightsource.ca/operations/insertion_devices.php| url-status=dead}}</ref> Phase III will add four more devices, filling 8 of the 9 available straight sections.

However, a large portion of this power saving - about 160 kW out of the 250 kW saved - is needed to power the cryogenic plant required to supply liquid helium to the cavity. The SRF cavity at CLS is fed with RF from a 310 kW Thales klystron. ===Beamlines=== [[File:Schematic-representation-of-the-major-components-of-the-Canadian-Light-Source-The-29.jpg|center|thumb|500x500px|Layout of beamlines at the Canadian Light Source synchrotron]] {| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;" |- !
