Sumario:One of the means proposed to increase the luminosity in storage rings, a so-called low- beta insertion, has been put successfully into operation in the Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR). By installing five quadrupoles in each ring around one intersection, a reduction of beam height by a factor 2.3 has been measured, and, with proper matching, the perturbation to the rest of the machine was found to be negligible. With circulating beams of 20 A and 24 A a luminosity of 2.11*10/sup 31/ cm/sup -2/ s/sup -1/ has been achieved. This paper reports the results of tests conducted. (8 refs).
