Pitz Experience on the Experimental Optimization of the Rf Photo Injector for the European Xfel
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site (PITZ), develops high brightness electron sources for modern free electron lasers. A continuous experimental optimization of the L-band photo injector for such FEL facilities like FLASH and the European XFEL has been performed for a wide range of electron bunch charges – from 20 pC to 2 nC – yielding very small emittance values for all charge levels. Experience and results of the experimental optimization will be presented in comparison with beam dynamics simulations. The influence of various parameters onto the photo injector performance will be discussed.

Beam Based Monitoring of the Rf Photo Gun Stability at Pitz
The stability of the photo injector is a key issue for the successful operation of linac based free electron lasers. Several types of jitter can impact the stability of a laser driven RF gun. Fluctuations of the RF launch phase and the cathode laser energy have significant influence on the performance of a high brightness electron source. Bunch charge measurements are used to monitor the stabil...
متن کاملEnergy-Recovery Option for a Future X-ray Free-Electron Laser
A superconducting electron linac together with an energy-recovery system, which has been demonstrated as a useful driver for high-power IR-FELs, seems to be an attractive device for a future X-ray FEL facility as well, because the energy-recovery enable one to reduce the RF generator power required for the operation and also reduce the radiation from the beam dump. Automatic cancellation of bea...

The XFEL/SPring-8 facility, now under construction, is designed to generate coherent, high brilliance, ultra-short femto-second X-ray pulses at wavelengths of 0.1 nm or shorter. The injector consists of a 500 kV thermionic gun (CeB6), a beam deflecting system, multi-stage RF cavities and ten magnetic lenses. The multi-stage RF cavities (238 MHz, 476 MHz, 1428 MHz) are used for bunching and acce...
متن کاملA Time-adaptive Mesh Approach for the Self-consistent Simulation of Particle Beams
The high spatial resolution needed in self-consistent particle simulations can be achieved using adaptive mesh refinement techniques (AMR). In this paper the code SMOVE which is based on such an adaptive mesh is presented. It allows for accurate simulations with a high spatial resolution in the vicinity of the particle bunches. Furthermore, it offers the possibility of simulating long accelerat...
متن کاملطراحی و ساخت پیش تزریقگر الکترون چشمه نور ایران
Every synchrotron accelerator requires a pre-injector for primary injection of the electrons into the booster ring. The Iranian Light Source Facility (ILSF) pre-injector is a 150 MeV S-band linear accelerator with a thermionic cathode RF gun. The design of the pre-injector lattice and its beam dynamics calculation results together with the design of RF gun, alpha magnet, quadrupole magnets and ...
