\subsection{ALBA}   The ALBA light source~\cite{Garc_a_2014}   presently runs with one operation mode: 100$\,$mA multibunch. multi-bunch.  The fill pattern consists of 10 bunch trains each with 32 bunches and a 24$\,$ns gap in between.   Since September 2014 ALBA operates in top-up mode, before that it was decay mode.  

Operation in hybrid mode is impractical due to the low energy injection and to the characteristics   of the UVX injection system.   In the single bunch mode the initial current is typically of   order 9$\,$mA and is not interesting for high-flux, multibunch multi-bunch  users. \subsection{PETRA III} 

\subsection{SPring-8}  SPring-8~\cite{Tanaka_2006} runs in 9 operation modes, one of which is multi-bunch mode of twelve 160 bunch-trains, and the others are several bunch modes. The several bunch modes are grouped into several bunch modes and the hybrid ones.   The several bunch modes consist of equally spaced bunches (or bunch-trains), i.e. 203 bunches, 84 trains of 4 bunches, and 29 trains of 11 bunches. On the other hand, the hybrid modes are composed of partially filled multi-bunch train and isolated single bunches, i.e. 11/29-filling + 1 bunch, 1/7-filling + 5 bunches, 1/14-filling + 12 bunches, 2/29-filling + 26 bunches, and 4/58-filling + 53 bunches. The impurity of an isolated bunch is maintained under $10^{-8}$ in top-up operation.  

Typically the single bunch is filled to 4 times the charge of the other buckets.   Switching between the modes does not effect users of the 80\% filling, since the beam current is kept constant at 400$\,$mA in both.  \subsection{Comparisson} \subsection{Operation mode comparison}  Table~\ref{tab:opmodes} shows an overview of the operation modes.  \begin{table}
