Beam Line Design at the Maryland Infrared Free Electron Laser (mirfel)
نویسنده
چکیده
The Maryland Infrared Free Electron Laser is being constructed at the University of Maryland, and is expected to lase in the far infrared. The accelerator driving the laser is a 10 MeV linac which is being assembled in an “in-line” configuration. The design work for the accelerator was accomplished using Trace-3D and PARMELA computer simulations. When the accelerator is completed, it will be able to accommodate several additional experimental sections within the beam line itself in order to further study accelerator physics.

The University of Maryland Free-Electron Laser
The Maryland Infrared Free-Electron Laser (MIRFEL) is under construction at the University of Maryland. MIRFEL, based on the Advanced Energy Systems CIRFEL, is a source of far-infrared (FIR) light for physics, medical, and materials science research. A project to investigate vibrational modes in DNA is currently planned. These vibrations may be involved in information transfer and gene transcri...
متن کاملThe Application of Otr-odr Interferometry to the Measurement of the Divergence of Low Energy Electron Beams
Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) interferometry has been shown to be a useful diagnostic to measure the divergence of electron beams with energies in the range of 15-100 MeV. A limitation of this method is due to beam scattering in the first foil of the interferometer. To mitigate this undesirable effect we propose to use a perforated first foil in the interferometer. In this case a substanti...
متن کاملThe JAERI superconducting linac based FEL
The JAERI superconducting rf linac has been developed to produce a high-power infrared free-electron laser (FEL). So far, a stable kW-level laser output has been achieved with improvements of the electron gun, the optical resonator as well as the beam transport optics. For increasing FEL power, energy-recovery experiments are planned in the next phase of the FEL development. The lattice design ...

In this report, the distribution and deviation of electric field in the active medium of the TE CO2 laser has been investigated due to the injection of net electron charge beam as a plasma generator. Some parameters of system have been considered, such as density and mean-free-path of injected charge beam. The electric potential and electric field distribution have been simulated by solving the...
متن کاملAltitude measurement using laser beam reflected from water surface
In this paper altitude measurement from water surface using laser beam is presented. Research data indicate that the reflection of infrared waves from water surface is about zero and it is less than 2% for visible radiations. Phase-shift and heterodyne technique was used for the measurement, and the laser beam ( mW p nm 10 , 700 = = l ) was modulated by a sine wave having a fixed frequency....
