TUPC07 | Electron Bunch Momentum Distribution Modulations at PITZ | 247 |
|
||
The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site, PITZ, develops and optimizes high brightness electron sources for Free Electron Lasers such as FLASH and the European XFEL. In last years shutdown period different components of the facility have been upgraded. One of the key upgrades was the installation of a new laser system with a larger spectral bandwidth. This allows for rise- and fall-times of less than 2ps of the temporally flat top laser pulses having a FWHM of up to 25ps. In this paper we report on the investigations of modulations in the electron bunch momentum spectra when modifying parameters of the laser system such as bandwidth or longitudinal pulse shape. |

TUPC09 | Recent Emittance Measurement Results for the Upgraded PITZ Facility | 251 |

At the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY, Zeuthen site, (PITZ) development and optimization of high brightness electron sources for Free Electron Lasers (FELs) like FLASH and the European XFEL are performed. In 2008, the PITZ facility was substantially upgraded. A new 1.6-cell L-band RF-gun cavity treated with an improved surface cleaning technique, a new photocathode laser system allowing shorter rise and fall times of the flat hat temporal distribution and several new diagnostics components have been installed. Since the transverse emittance is a key property of high brightness electron sources a major part of the measurement program at PITZ is devoted to the transverse phase space optimization. Recent results of emittance measurements using the upgraded facility are reported and discussed in this contribution. |
