title: Global dynamics of the advanced light source revealed through experimental frequency map analysis.
abstract: Frequency map analysis was first used for the dynamical study of numerical simulations of physical systems (solar system, galaxies, particle accelerators). Here it is applied directly to the experimental results obtained at the Advanced Light Source. For the first time, the network of coupling resonances is clearly visible in an experiment, in a similar way as in the numerical simulation. Excellent agreement between numerical and experimental results leads us to propose this technique as a tool for improving numerical models and actual behavior of particle accelerators. Moreover, it provides a model-independent diagnostic for the evaluation of the dynamical properties of the beam.
