Doubling the number of identical-angle bends halves each angle. The minimum emittance scales as ${\theta }^3$, so it becomes $\boxed{0.240\mathrm{nm}\mathrm{rad}}$. At unchanged energy and unchanged individual magnet length, the bending radius doubles and field halves, giving $B=0.70$ T and $\boxed{E_c\simeq 4.19\mathrm{keV}}$.

At fixed stored current the loss per turn, proportional to $E^4\oint ds/{\rho }^2$, halves: twice as many equal-length bends each have one quarter of the original contribution. Total radiation power therefore halves. The spectrum softens by the factor-two critical-energy change. The characteristic high-energy vertical opening angle remains of order $1/\gamma$ at fixed energy, while each magnet's horizontal sweep halves. At a fixed absolute photon energy the normalized spectral position changes, so a claim that every angular distribution is identical would be too strong. Lower emittance also reduces the electron source size/divergence subject to the optical functions.
