Initial Results of Rf Gun Experiment
نویسندگان
چکیده
A photocathode RF gun was built and it has been operated for beam measurement at SPring-8. The cavity was tested by using high power RF up to 18 MW. The electric field gradient on the cathode reached 127 MW/m. After RF conditioning, a laser pulse was irradiated on a copper cathode and the photo-emitted beam was accelerated up to 2.9 MeV. An effective quantum efficiency of the cathode was obtained by changing laser power and field gradient.

rookhaven photocathode rf gun
The Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) uses a photocathode rf gun to provide a high-brightness electron beam intended for FEL and laser acceleration experiments. The rf gun consists of 1-,' cells driven at 2856 MHz in 7r-mode with a maximum cathode field of 100 MV/m. To achieve long lifetimes, our photocathode development concentrates on robust metals such as copper, yttrium and samariu...

Every synchrotron accelerator requires a pre-injector for primary injection of the electrons into the booster ring. The Iranian Light Source Facility (ILSF) pre-injector is a 150 MeV S-band linear accelerator with a thermionic cathode RF gun. The design of the pre-injector lattice and its beam dynamics calculation results together with the design of RF gun, alpha magnet, quadrupole magnets and ...

متن کاملUse of Coherent Transition Radiation to Set up the Aps Rf Thermionic Gun to Produce High-brightness Beams for Sase Fel Experiments
We describe use of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) rf thermionic gun [1], alpha-magnet beamline, and linac [2] to produce a stable high-brightness beam in excess of 100 amperes peak current with normalized emittance of 10 π mm-mrad. To obtain peak currents greater than 100 amperes, the rf gun system must be tuned to produce a FWHM bunch length on the order of 350 fs. Bunch lengths this short a...
