Diagnostic Tools for the Undulator System of the Seeded HGHG-FEL at MAX-lab
- 2008

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Within a collaboration between MAX-lab and BESSY a one stage seeded HGHG-FEL has been set up at Maxlab. BESSY has built the undulator system consisting of a modulator, a radiator and an electromagnetic chicane. BESSY has also installed three types of diagnostic tools: optical fibres for a fast Cherenkov beam loss detection, optical fibres for absolute dose measurements via their radiation-induced attenuation and THz detectors for the characterization of electron bunch properties. During first injections with a laser driven rf-gun the Cherenkov fibres have delivered detailed spatial information on the beam losses inside the beamline. Over the last year the second system, based on powermeter measurements, has detected a total dose of 180Gy. The high sensitivity and low drift of this system has been demonstrated. A THz detector behind the last dipole magnet close to the beam dump provides information on the bunch compression and the laser induced energy modulation. We report on the measurements performed with these diagnostics tools.

Double-bunches for two-color soft X-ray free-electron laser at the MAX IV Laboratory
- 2018

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The ability to generate two-color free-electron laser (FEL) radiation enables a wider range of user experiments than just single-color FEL radiation. There are different schemes for generating the two colors, the original being to use a single bunch and two sets of undulators with different K-parameters. An alternative scheme was recently shown, where two separate bunches in the same RF bucket are used for lasing at different wavelengths in a single set of undulators. We here investigate the feasibility of accelerating and compressing a double-bunch time structure generated in the photocathode electron gun for subsequent use in a soft X-ray FEL at the MAX IV Laboratory.

Driver-witness-bunches for plasma-wakefield acceleration at the MAX IV Linear Accelerator
- 2017

- Beam-driven plasma-wakefield acceleration is an acceleration scheme promising accelerating fields of at least two to three orders of magnitude higher than in conventional radiofrequency accelerating structures. The scheme relies on using a charged particle bunch (driver) to drive a non-linear plasma wake, into which a second bunch (witness) can be injected at an appropriate distance behind the first, yielding a substantial energy gain of the witness bunch particles. This puts very special demands on the machine providing the particle beam. In this article, we use simulations to show that, if driver-witness-bunches can be generated in the photocathode electron gun, the MAX IV Linear Accelerator could be used for plasma-wakefield acceleration.

Third-order double-achromat bunch compressors for broadband beams
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Physical Review Accelerators and Beams. - 2469-9888. ; 22:10

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Many state-of-the-art applications for linear accelerators, such as free-electron lasers (FELs) and plasma-wakefield accelerators (PWFAs), require small normalized emittances, and PWFAs in particular are very sensitive to transverse slice offsets along the beam. Dispersive systems, such as bunch compressors, can cause different chromatic aberrations, one of which yields transverse slice offsets. In this paper, we show a design approach to double-achromat bunch compressors which greatly reduces different chromatic aberrations and mitigates coherent synchrotron radiation effects.

Project Status of the Polish Synchrotron Radiation Facility Solaris
- 2011

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Abstract in Undetermined The Polish synchrotron radiation facility Solaris is being built at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. The project is based on an identical copy of the 1.5 GeV storage ring being concurrently built for the MAX IV project in Lund, Sweden. A general description of the facility is given together with a status of activities. Unique features associated with Solaris are outlined, such as infrastructure, the injector and operational characteristics.

Status of the fel test facility at MAX-LAB
- 2007
-
Ingår i: ; , s. 513-516
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- An FEL test facility is built on the existing MAX-lab linac system in collaboration between MAX-lab and BESSY. The goal is to study and analyse seeding, harmonic generation, beam compression and diagnostic techniques with the focus of gaining knowledge and experience for the MAX IV FEL and the BESSY FEL projects. The test facility will in the first stage be using the 400 MeV linac beam to generate the third harmonic at 88 nm from a 266 nm Ti:Sapphire seed laser. The optical klystron is installed and magnetic system, gun and seed laser systems are currently being finalised. Start-to-end simulations have been performed and operation modes for bunch compression defined. The linac and beam transport system is already in operation.

The Synchrotron Radiation and Free Electron Laser Project MAX IV at MAX-lab
- 2008

Ingår i: Journal of Physics Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6588 .- 1742-6596. ; 100

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The proposed MAX IV facility at MAX-lab, Lund University is presented. The project consists of two storage rings at 1.5 and 3 GeV respectively, a 3 GeV linac injector, a facility for short pulses and a Free Electron Laser. The storage rings will cover a broad spectral range and are designed to reach the diffraction limit in a large wavelength range. A new innovative magnet concept and lattice form the back bone of the ring design. Short photon pulses will be generated with compressed pulses from the linac system and coherent pulses by a Free Electron Laser operating in the HGHG mode. The project has received the highest marks in the scientific evaluations both concerning machine design and scientific program.
