We conduct research on Free Electron Laser (FEL) in the infrared region and pulse radiolysis for radiation chemistry using the 40 MeV, 1.3 GHz L-band linac of Osaka University. At present, the L-band linac is equipped with a thermionic electron gun. It can accelerate a high-intensity single-bunch beam with charge up to 91 nC but the normalized emittance is large. In order to advance the research, we have begun development of a photocathode RF gun for the L-band electron linac in collaboration with KEK and Hiroshima University. We start the basic design of the RF gun cavity for the L-band linac at ISIR, Osaka University, based on the 1.5 cells, which is a normal conducting photocathode RF gun. A material of the cathode should be Cs2Te, which has the high quantum efficiency of a few percents, to produce a beam with high charge up to 30 nC/bunch. We improve the cooling system of the cavity for high duty operation to suppress the thermal deformation due to the heat load of input rf power. The simulation study has been also performed for the L-band linac at ISIR with a high charge electron beam. In this conference, we describe the details of the L-band photocathode RF gun development.

We have been developing a Terahertz free electron laser (FEL) based on the 40 MeV, 1.3 GHz L-band electron linac at the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research (ISIR), Osaka University. After the FEL lasing at the wavelength of 70 um (4.3 THz)*, next targets of the FEL development are to extend the available laser wavelength, to increase the FEL power, and to evaluate characteristics of FEL. Since the lowest energy of the linac was restricted by a fixed-ratio power divider between the acceleration tube and the buncher, we have prepared the new one with a different ratio to extend the wavelength longer side. As a result, the wavelength region is able to be extended to 25 - 147 um (12.5 - 2 THz). The maximum output energy of the FEL macropulse so far obtained is 3.6 mJ at 66 um. The peak macropulse power available to user experiments is estimated to be 1 kW or less, given that the pulse duration is 3 us. Three users groups have begun experiments using the FEL. We will report these recent activities on the Terahertz FEL.

The edge-focusing (EF) wiggler has been fabricated to evaluate its performance rigorously with the magnetic field measurement. It is a 5-period planar wiggler with an edge angle of 2° and a period length of 60 mm. The magnetic field is measured using Hall probes at four different wiggler gaps. It is experimentally confirmed that a high field gradient of 1.0 T/m is realized, as designed, along the beam axis. The magnetic field gradient of the EF wiggler is derived as a function of the magnetic gap. The field gradient decreases with increasing magnet gap more slowly than the peak magnetic field does for the present experimental model. An analytic formula for the field gradient of the EF wiggler is derived and it is shown that the slope of the field gradient with the magnet gap can be changed by varying the magnet width of the EF wiggler. We analyzed the relation between the orientation errors of the measurement system and the measured magnetic field or field gradient using a model magnetic field of the EF wiggle. We corrected the measurement magnetic field based on this analysis and evaluated the performance of the EF wiggler.

The 40 MeV L-band electron linac at the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University is extensively used for various applications on advanced beam sciences including radiation chemistry by means of pulse radiolysis and development of the free electron laser in the THz region. It was constructed in 1975-78 and has been remodeled sometimes for improving its performance. The most recent one was made in 2002-2004 for higher operational stability and reproducibility, resulting in significant advances in the studies. We will report the present status of the linac and results of its performance evaluation.

Aim of Super-conducting Test Facility (STF) at KEK is demonstrating technologies for International Linear Collider. In STF, one full RF unit will be developed and beam acceleration test will be made. In super-conducting accelerator, precise RF control in phase and power is essential because the input RF power should be balanced to beam accelerating power. To demonstrate the system feasibility, the beam accelerating test is an important step in R&D phase of STF and ILC. To provide ILC format beam for STF, we develop an electron source based on photo-cathode L-band RF gun. To generate ILC format beam, we developed a laser system based on Yb fiber oscillator in 40.6 MHz. The pulse repetition is decreased by picking pulses in 2.7 MHz, which meets ILC bunch spacing, 364 ns. The pulse is then amplified by YLF laser up to 8 uJ per pulse in 1 mm. The light is converted to 266 nm by SHG and FHG. Finally, 1.5 uJ per pulse is obtained and 3.2 nC bunch charge will be made. We report the basic performance of the laser system from the accelerator technology point of a view.
