Cavity-type Beam Position Monitors for the SASE FEL at the TESLA Test Facility
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cavity-type beam position monitors were developed to measure the beam alignment at the undulator section of DESY’s TESLA Test Facility (TTF). This paper describes some theoretical aspects and the experimental setup. The results of some in-beam measurements at the TTF are presented and pros and cons of the monitor concept are discussed.

New Microwave Beam Position Monitors for the TESLA Test Facility | FEL
Beam-based alignment is essential for the operation of the SASE-FEL at the TESLA Test Facility Linac. In order to ensure the overlap of the photon beam and the electron beam, the position of the electron beam has to be measured along the undulator beamline with a high resolution. Due to the severe space limitations, a new microwave concept is being considered. It is based on special ridged wave...
متن کاملEfficient frequency doubler for the soft X-ray SASE FEL at the TESLA Test Facility
This paper describes an effective frequency doubler scheme for SASE free electron lasers. It consists of an undulator tuned to the first harmonic, a dispersion section, and a tapered undulator tuned to the second harmonic. The first stage is a conventional soft X-ray SASE FEL. Its gain is controlled in such a way that the maximum energy modulation of the electron beam at the exit is about equal...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Femtosecond Soft X-ray SASE FEL at DESY
In this paper we describe the extension of the soft X-ray SASE FEL at the TESLA Test Facility (TTF) at DESY for generation of femtosecond pulses. The idea is based on a technique of \manipulating" the energy spread along the electron bunch. Since the radiation ampli cation process is extremely sensitive to the value of the energy spread, only that part of the electron bunch radiates which has l...
متن کاملOptimization of Beam Injection into the First Accelerating Module at Ttf with Cavity Dipole Mode Signals
The TESLA Test Facility (TTF) is a user facility for intense VUV-FEL light. The facility is densely equipped with diagnostics, essential in obtaining the necessary beam parameters, in particular the low emittance. However there is no dedicated component for alignment of the beam in the accelerating modules, each containing eight superconducting cavities. Large beam offsets can lead to an increa...
متن کاملH. Weise, Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, Hamburg, Germany for the XFEL Group
X-rays play a crucial role in the study of structural and electronic properties of matter on an atomic scale. With high-brilliance X-ray sources high-resolution imaging and the observation of very fast chemical processes become possible. A high-brilliance X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) based on linear accelerator technology using the principle of self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) app...
