A Fast Switchyard for the Tesla Fel-beam Using a Superconducting Transverse Mode Cavity
نویسنده
چکیده
In the present design of the TESLA Linear Collider with integrated X-ray Laser Facility it is necessary that 1 ms long bunch trains with about 10000 bunches are generated and distributed to several free electron laser (FEL) beam lines. The different scientific applications of the X-ray FELs need specific filling patterns of the bunches in the bunch train. It is shown that a fast switch-yard based on a superconducting transverse mode cavity can be used to generate the required bunch pattern in a flexible way while keeping the beam loading in the main linear accelerator constant. The conceptual design of the beam optics and the transverse mode cavity are presented.

Optimization 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 کاملCalculation of Rf Properties of the Third Harmonic Cavity
Recently a third harmonic structure has been proposed for the injector of the TTF-FEL to avoid nonlinear distortions in the longitudinal phase space. This structure consists of four nine cell TESLA-like cavities. For the use of this structure in combination with the TTF-FEL it might be interesting to investigate higher order modes (HOM) in the structure and their effect on the beam dynamics. In...

A design of a superconducting 3.9 GHz cavity for the injector of the TTF FEL-User Facility is presented. The cavity will be located after the first TESLA module with eight 1.3 GHz cavities and before the first bunch compressor. The purpose of the cavity is to cancel nonlinear distortions in the longitudinal phase space due to the cosine-like curvature of the 1.3 GHz accelerating cavity voltage....

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...
متن کاملCavity-type Beam Position Monitors for the SASE FEL at the TESLA Test Facility
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.
