| THPKF036 | Developments of the FZP Beam Profile Monitor | 2350 |
|
||
|
A beam profile monitor based on two Fresnel Zone Plates (FZPs) has been developed at the KEK-ATF damping ring. This monitor can perform real-time imaging of the electron beam with an X-ray imaging optics and the synchrotron radiation and measure the horizontal and vertical beam sizes with a high spatial resolution. A clear electron-beam image with the vertical beam size less than 10 microns was already obtained in the early measurements [*]. Thereafter some of the optical elements, the crystal monochromator, X-ray CCD camera and FZP holders, were improved and an X-ray pinhole mask was installed between the two FZPs for reducing the background of X-rays passing through the MZP (the second FZP). Aberrations due to alignment errors of the FZPs were studied with an analytical approach and a ray-tracing method and vibrations of the optical elements were measured in order to estimate their effects on the system performance. In this paper, we will present developments of the beam profile monitor with results of some beam-size measurements.

| THPLT080 | Simulation Study of the Beam Loading Effect in an RF Gun | 2679 |
|

| Because of simple structure and apparatus, a thermionic rf gun has been considered to be employed in a new pre-injector for the future synchrotron radiation facility at Tohoku University. A 3-D beam simulation code for the rf gun using a Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method to solve Maxwell's equations has been developed. In the rf gun, especially in case of the high beam current, electromagnetic fields induced by the electron beam are considered to affect beam characteristics such as beam emittance and energy spread. In the FDTD method, because the Maxwell?s equations are able to be solved including the term of current density of the charge, the electromagnetic fields produced by both the external rf power and the electron beam can be anticipated. Using the simulation code, beam loading effects on the characteristics of the electron beam extracted from the rf gun is investigated. | ||
| TUYBCH01 | Design Criteria and Technology Challenges for the Undulators of the Future | 59 |
|

| Nowadays, undulators are essential devices for synchrotron radiation (SR) facilities since they generate a quasi-monochromatic radiation with various features, high brightness , high energy and special polarization characteristics. Particularly, demands for high-energy radiation in the X-ray region have become much stronger in many research fields. Accordingly, a short-period undulator design has been developed, because they increase the number of periods in a unit undulator length and as a consequence, they generate brilliant synchrotron radiation. Also, short undulator periodicity enables emission of high-energy photons, and it opens the way for X-ray beamline operation in medium size synchrotron radiation facilities, such as SLS, NSLS, PLS, CLS, ALS, SOLEIL, DIAMOND, SPEAR-III and so on. From the same reason, a short-period undulator is very attractive for SASE-FEL or ERL facilities, since it lowers the electron beam energy necessary for X-ray operation. As a result this design makes a whole facility design compact and economic. In the talk, I will review the status of the development on short-period undulators of various types (in-vacuum, superconducting and cryogenic types) and describe the future direction. | ||

| WEPLT103 | Radiation Damage in Magnets for Undulators at Low Temperature | 2089 |
|

| Nd2Fe14B permanent magnets are used in many insertion devices for its good magnetic and mechanical properties. However, the radiation sensitivity of the magnets would be concern when they are used in a strong radiation environment. It is known that these magnets with very high coercivity show high resistance to radiation, though the substance for increasing the coercivity decrease the remanence. The coercivity and remanence of this magnet exhibit negative dependence against temperature, so it is expected to these magnets to show high remanence and high resistance to radiation at low temperature. The idea of using magnets at low temperature leads the new concept of the cryogenic undulators. In this report, the experimental results of the radiation damage of permanent magnets at low temperature are shown. |
