Multi-objective Genetic Optimization for LCLS-II X-ray FEL
نویسندگان
چکیده
The LCLS-II (linac coherent light source II) will build on the success of the world’s most powerful X-ray laser: the LCLS (linac coherent light source). It will add two new X-ray laser beams and room for additional new instruments, thus greatly increasing the number of experiments carried out each year. Multiple operation modes are proposed to accommodate a variety of user requirements. There are a large number of variables and objectives in the design. For each operation mode, MOGA (multi-objective genetic algorithm) is applied to optimize the machine parameters in order to minimize the jitters, energy spread, collective effects and emittance.

Optimization of a Terawatt Free Electron Laser∗
There is great interest in generating a terawatt (TW) hard X-ray free electron laser (FEL) that will enable coherent diffraction imaging of complex molecules like proteins and probe fundamental high-field physics. A feasibility study of producing such pulses was carried out employing a configuration beginning with an SASE amplifier, followed by a “self-seeding” crystal monochromator, and finish...
متن کاملLaser power meters as an X-ray power diagnostic for LCLS-II
For the LCLS-II X-ray instruments, laser power meters are being developed as compact X-ray power diagnostics to operate at soft and tender X-ray photon energies. These diagnostics can be installed at various locations along an X-ray free-electron laser (FEL) beamline in order to monitor the transmission of X-ray optics along the beam path. In addition, the power meters will be used to determine...

The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) program involves a collaboration of several US National Laboratories and universities with the goal of designing and building the first 4-generation hard x-ray source, an x-ray free-electron laser (FEL). This FEL will utilize extremely short, intense, low-emittance electron pulses created by the high-energy linear accelerator at the Stanford Linear Acceler...
متن کاملTransverse Coherence P Roperties of the Lcls X-ray Beam∗
Self-amplifying spontaneous radiation free-electron lasers, such as the LCLS or the European X-FEL, rely on the incoherent, spontaneous radiation as the seed for the amplifying process. Though this method overcomes the need for an external seed source one drawback is the incoherence of the effective seed signal. The FEL process allows for a natural growth of the coherence because the radiation ...
