Review of Diagnostics for next Generation Linear Accelerators
نویسنده
چکیده
New electron linac designs incorporate substantial advances in critical beam parameters such as beam loading and bunch length and will require new levels of performance in stability and phase space control. In the coming decade, e(and e+) linacs will be built for a high power linear collider (TESLA, CLIC, JLC/NLC), for fourth generation X-ray sources (TESLA FEL, LCLS, Spring 8 FEL) and for basic accelerator research and development (Orion). Each project assumes significant instrumentation performance advances across a wide front. This review will focus on basic diagnostics for beam position and phase space monitoring. Research and development efforts aimed at high precision multi-bunch beam position monitors, transverse and longitudinal profile monitors and timing systems will be described.

Liar - a New Program for the Modelling and Simulation of Linear Accelerators with High Gradients and Small Emittances
Linear accelerators are the central components of the proposed next generation of linear colliders. They need to provide acceleration of up to 750 GeV per beam while maintaining very small normalized emittances. Standard simulation programs, mainly developed for storage rings, do not meet the specific requirements for high energy linear accelerators. We present a new program LIAR (”LInear Accel...
متن کاملUltracold and High Brightness Electron Source for next Generation Particle Accelerators
The ultracold plasma-based electron source has recently been proposed as an alternative to conventional photoinjectors or thermionic electron guns, which are widely used in today’s particle accelerators. The advantages of the ultracold plasma-based electron source lie in the fact that the electrons extracted from the cold plasma (from near threshold ionization of ultracold atoms) has very low t...
متن کاملIon Effects in Future Circular and Linear Accelerators
In this paper, we discuss ion effects relevant to future storage rings and linear colliders. We ®rst review the conventional ion effects observed in present storage rings and then discuss how these effects will differ in the next generation of rings and linacs. These future accelerators operate in a new regime because of the high current long bunch trains and the very small transverse beam emit...
