  We discuss two methods to mitigate repulsion of particles in dense electron bunches from photo-injectors and to enhance the power of terahertz radiation. First, the repulsion may be reduced with both very short bunches and undulator periods, reducing the length of a radiation section. According to simulations bunches with duration (50-100) fs, charge (50-200) pC, and energy 6 MeV could fairly effectively radiate at frequencies up to (10-20) THz. The undulator for such a source can be formed by means of redistribution of a solenoid field by a non-magnetized iron helix and a permanently magnetized helix. The second source is based on an idea proposed by A.V. Savilov for electron bunching under conditions when the cyclotron electron frequency is larger than the undulator frequency, and an increase of particle energy in the bunch Coulomb field leads to a decrease in longitudinal momentum and attraction of particles (this effect is analogous to the cyclotron negative-mass instability). A large value of the required uniform field can be used to easily obtain the needed undulator field by placing a simple iron helix inside a pulsed solenoid. Simulations confirm that the corresponding particle attraction can provide a powerful and narrowband radiation at the frequencies (1-3) THz.

LCLS-II CW injector beamline consists of a 186 MHz normal conducting (NC) RF gun for beam generation and acceleration to 750 keV, two solenoids for the beam focusing, two BPMs, 1.3 GHz NC RF buncher for bunch compression down to 3-4 ps rms, 1.3 GHz superconducting standard 8-cavity cryomodule to boost beam energy to about 98 MeV. The beamline is being optimized to accommodate all essential components and maximize beam quality. The beamline layouts and beam dynamics are presented and compared. The 3D RF field perturbation due to cavity couplers where the beam energy is very low (<1 MeV) causes significant emittance growth especially for a large-size beam. A theory of rotated fields predicted and simulations verified using a weak skew quadrupole located even a significant distance from the perturbation can completely eliminate the emittance growth. A layout for future upgrade is developed. The results are presented and analysed.

  A compact seeded Terahertz FEL amplifier is started construction at Institute of Advanced Energy, Kyoto University, Japan. The system consists of a 1.6 cell BNL type S-Band photocathode RF-gun, a magnetic bunch compressor in form of a chicane, triplet quadrupole magnets and a short planar undulator. Electron beams from the photocathode RF-gun were measured and compared with the PARMELA simulation results. Numerical and experimental studies on the contribution of the space charge effect were carried out. By using the RF power of 9 MW, the RF phase of 40 degree, the laser pulse energy of 20 μJ, and the solenoid magnet current of 135 A, the electron beam with a bunch charge of 50 pC, a beam energy of around 5 MeV and an RMS emittance of 6-8 mm-mrad was achieved.

  This paper studies the ions bombardment on the cathode in the LCLS and LCLS-II gun. APEX gun is used here for LCLS-II, which will be operate at 1 MHz repetition rate. Therefore, It is important to estimate the ion bombardment. One specific PIC code is used track arbitrary particles (ions and electron here) in arbitrary 2D/3D electromagnetic field and solenoid field to estimate the possibility of ion bombardment. The LCLS gun has 1.6 cells while the LCLS-II gun (APEX gun) is a half-cell gun. The frequencies of the two guns are also quite different. These characters make the ion dynamics quite differently. We estimated the bombardment for various ion species and studied the effects RF pulse shape and RF phase
